رودکی

Abu Abdollah Jafar ibn Mohammad Rudaki (Persian: ابوعبدالله جعفر ابن محمد رودکی‎‎, entitled آدم الشعرا Ādam ul-Shoara or Adam of Poets), also written as Rudagi (858 - c. 941), was a Persian poet regarded as the first great literary genius of the Modern Persian language. Rudaki composed poems in the "New Persian" alphabet and is considered a founder of classical Persian literature. His poetry contains many of the oldest genres of Persian poetry including the quatrain,[2] however, only a small percentage of his extensive poetry has survived. Rudaki's "Nahr and 'Ayn," "Khing- but and Surkhbut," and "Wamiq and 'Azra" have prospered on the riches of the oral tradition of folklores.
