Abstract

One of the verses in Hafiz Poetry which provokes a lot of discussion is the verse located at the beginning of the page. The problem is being approached from different angles: 1. With regard to the first verse, which one is correct? «دﻮـﺧ ﺮـﮔ», «دﻮـﺧ رو» or «دﻮﺧ را»? 2. The question arose as to whether we should consider the verse a conditional case and we must interpret it or not? 3. What is meant by Chardh Narrative in the second verse? The present paper is an attempt to indicate first, the preference of the two terms of «دﻮـﺧ ﺮـﮔ» and «دﻮـﺧ را», which share the same meaning and have been used in the former six versions (before 850 AH), to the term «دﻮﺧ رو» which has been erratically used in just one version of that era (before 850 AH). Second, based upon the first part, the verse must be dealt with as a conditional case and therefore interpreted. Third, Chardh Narrative means the narratives of fourteen innocent (PBUH) in commentating Quran.
