Abstract :
Punishment is one of the most important literary techniques and verbal arrays that increase the music of poetry and its beauty. Given the importance of this industry in the field of poetry and literature and its impact on the beauty of poetry, the present study is dedicated to examining the beauty of puns in the poetry of one of the most powerful Arabic-speaking poets of the Syrian land named Shab Al-Zarif; Because this poet wrote pleasant and delicate poems and was very skilled in using all kinds of novel crafts to the extent that his poems were accepted by the literati. This research has been done in a descriptive-analytical manner and based on library studies. The result of the research shows that Shab Al-Zarif has used all kinds of puns in expressing his desired concepts and themes. He has used this array in different ways and in a very beautiful and desirable way in his divan and he has been very successful in this field. The use of this array has also had a great impact on the melody of the poem, the rhythm of the words, the strength of the link between word and meaning, increasing the musical aspect of the poem and finally attracting the audience.
