Critical Correction and Translation of Four Ghazals of Awhadi Maraghai into Isfahan Dialect of 7th and 8th- Century A.H

In the divan of Awhadi Maraghai, four ghazals are found in the ancient dialect of Isfahan people. The manuscripts are documented bearing some defects and modifications, such as some words which are not identical in the two different manuscripts; furthermore, the printed texts do not appear in better conditions. In 1963, Adib Toosi corrected, translated into Persian and transliterated three of these four ghazals in an article; however, his work was not flawless and in several parts of the article some defects could be characterized. Therefore, re-correcting and re-translating these three ghazals in addition to one he had not studied seems necessary. In this study, after the introduction, literature review and introducing the available manuscripts, all of the Awhadi’s dialectical ghazals were critically corrected, described, explained, and transliterated wherever it was necessary. Besides, describing and explaining the verses some defects of Adib Toosi’s article were mentioned.
