Qovsi Tabrizi (Azerbaijani: قوسی تبریزلی; Persian: قوسی تبریزی; born Alijan Ismailoghlu Qovsi[1][2]) was a 17th-century poet.

Life

Qovsi Tabrizi was born in Tabriz in the first quarter of the 17th century,[1][2] to an Azerbaijani family.[3] His father, Ismail Qovsi was a craftsman and a poet.[1][4] Tabrizi was educated in Isfahan and during his stay there, he wrote poems about Tabriz and often compared the two cities.[1]

Poetry

Tabrizi hated social injustice and ridiculed clergy in his works. The theme of romantic love and an idealistic and pantheistic worldview took a significant place in his lyrics. Pessimistic motifs are also present, shown in his descriptions of people's thoughts and hopes. Other features of Tabrizi's poems include a diversity of representations, forms and intonations.[4] Qovsi Tabrizi often used literary expressions of folk language.[5][1] Collections of Tabrizi's lyrical poems are stored in two manuscripts. One is in the British Library in London and the other is in the History Museum of Georgia in Tbilisi.[4]
