Voghoo and Vasukht are traits of Indian poetic style; a style which was at its supreme height in the Safavid period (1501: Tabriz to 1736: Isfahan). These traits could be regarded as the traits with which Persian poets of this period tried to emulate their predecessors. Although these two traits belonged to the Indian poetic style, poets of other poetic styles utilized these traits in composing their poems. Jalal ad-Din Mohammad Rumi (1207-1273) was one of such poets whose commitment to Voghoo and Vasukht could be recognized in Sham Tabrizi’s Divan amply.
After exemplifying some instances of Voghoo and Vasukht in Tabrizi’s predecessors, the present study analyzes his Divan for identifying these two traits. The study assumes that while struggling with his melancholic love for the beloved, Rumi as a mystical amorous poet loses his command on logic and restraint, and starts disclosing intimate accounts of the transpirations between himself and the beloved.
Keywords: Poetic Style, Voghoo, Vasukht, Rumi, Societies, Social behavior, Shams Tabrizi.
