This study intends to investigate the use of these words in terms of additional combinations, metaphors and poetic images in the poetry of great Persian poets up to the eighth century.

In this research, with the method of theoretical analysis and library study, the use of the word morning and dawn in different dimensions in the poetry of great Persian poets such as Rudaki, Ferdowsi, Manouchehri, Naser Khosrow, Masoud Saad Salman, Khayyam, Sanai, Anvari, Khaghani , Nezami, Attar, Rumi, and Saadi.

The image of morning and dawn in the poetry of Persian poets was at first realistic and aesthetic, but after the introduction of mysticism to the language of poetry that Sanai started, morning and dawn due to night solitude and the time of revelation and Mystical manifestations and, on the other hand, the inclusion of the temporal capacity of prayer and supplication in the Qur'an, found a high frequency in mystical poetry. After Sanai, among the poets Khaghani, Rumi, and Hafez, they used the most semantic and metaphorical uses with morning and dawn.

These words were first developed by mystical poetry in Persian language and finally, both in semantic level and in linguistic level, they have expanded the vocabulary and richness of Persian language to the extent that few poets can be found who illustrate with This word is not paid
