Saif Farghani

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Saif Farghani (Persian: سیف فرغانی, in full, Moulānā Sayfoddin Mohammad Farqānī, مولانا سیف‌الدین محمد فرغانی) was a 13th-14th century Persian poet. He was born in Farghāneh, a city in Transoxiana and died in 1348 (749 Hijri) in Aqsara in modern-day Turkey.

He uses the Khorasani style in his poetry. His poems are in simple Persian and use less mixed Arabic vocabulary. He considers Saadi a master of Persian poetry and follows in his footsteps, according to his own poetry.[1]
