In the name of God, the Almighty
Rudaki, who is known as the father of Persian poetry, Adam al Shoara, and the king of poets, was born more than a thousand years ago, and played a very important role in the foundation, progress and promotion of Persian poetry. Rudaki had an extraordinary talent in the fields of poetry and music, as well as playing the Barbat or Oud instrument.
His style of poetry is in simple language, innocent, and full of emotions and beautiful images. Rudaki was able to express the most complex feelings and thoughts with simple and understandable language, and even today his fellow speakers understand these poems without referring to dictionaries. In addition to literary beauty, his poems have deep and instructive messages that remain lasting and effective even today.
