Abstract :
In his mystical journey, Shahriyar followed Hafez and apparently avoided following Rumi due to some extremism. He always claimed in his poems and interviews that he was following the path of mysticism, but the mysticism he projected in his sonnets did not have pure experiences. The original mysticism of Shahriyar should be sought in some poems of "Shahriyar School". In this article, two poems "Raz o Niaz" and "Hazyan-e Del" are taken into account. The poet's interpretation and report of his mystical experiences in these two poems are completely modern and bear the signature of Shahriyar. The novelty of form, special structures, influential imagination, romanticism and other aspects have made the mysticism that appeared in these two poems completely new. These poems were written in the 1320s; In the next four decades of his life, Shahriyar could no longer attain such transcendent esoteric experiences in mysticism, and then, in fact, engaged himself with the surface and shell of mysticism. In these two poems, Shahriyar no longer claims to be enquiring and intuitive, but presents his findings directly, like a movie scene, to the readers. In this article, which has been done through a library and descriptive method, we have described two styles in Shahriyar's mystical poetry. Keywords: Shahriyar, mysticism, Hazyan-e Del, Raz o Niaz and, omanticism.
