Lamentation in the term means composing poetry in a person's mourning and has existed since the first periods of Persian poetry. In the Safavid era, this type of literature was linked to the Karbala incident and gradually became a stable culture. Since then, Shiite poets have written religious poems, especially Ashura poems, detailing their events. Ahli Shirazi and Babafghani Shirazi are among the great poets of the Safavid era who wrote exhilarating poems in the mourning of Imam Hussein (AS) and the martyrs of Karbala. In this research, 267 bits of Ashura poems of the mentioned poets have been studied from the perspective of literary images by statistical analysis of data; The people of Shiraz have more artistic uses than Baba Faghani Shirazi. Most of the laments have heavy weights and a calm and sad tone.The frequency of Arabic words as well as words with the mourning discourse of Ashura (such as Karbala, blood, martyr, sorrow, etc.) is significant in all elegies. The syntactic structure of many sentences is necessarily confused with poetry, but these changes are common in poetry and are not considered prominence. Intellectually, all the elegies confirm that the poets are Shiites; Attributing the incident of Ashura to the sky, which is a kind of determinism, is significant in these poems. The most important result of the present study is to reveal the similarities and literary differences between the elegies of these two poets and to know their views on the martyrs.
