One of the greatest accomplishments of the Russian formalists is the concept of the dominant or the focusing component of a literary work. With the help of this concept, it is possible to describe the components of literary works of a period. The dominant was first used by the leader of the Moscow Linguistic Circle, Roman Jakobson. The theory states that the predominant element dominates other elements, and makes them void and less evident. In this research, the dominant of the Ghazals of Vahshi Bafghi sonnet has been carefully studied and analyzed. Vahshi is one of the distinguished poets of the tenth century, whose masterpiece - Farhad and Shirin Masnavi - and Ghazals brought him worldwide fame. Ghazals that are plain and fluent and have little complicated and subjective content. Vahshi’s Ghazals do not include subjects like philosophy and advice and love is the dominant theme of his lyrics, but within this dominant aspect, the use of other subjects such as grief, loss, regret, oppression, and realism are also significant. In this research, the most statistically prominent aspects of his Ghazals are presented.
