بخش ۲۵ - شیخ سعدی شیرازی / Section 25 - Sheikh Saadi Shirazi

Original content

شیخ سعدی شیرازی - رحمه الله تعالی، نام وی مصلح الدین است و همانا که سعدی نسبت به نام ممدوح است وی قدوه متغزلان است هیچ کس پیش از وی بیش از وی طریق غزل نورزیده و سخنان وی همه طوایف را مقبول افتاده یکی از شعرا گفته است و الحق گوهر انصاف سفته:
در شعر سه کس پیمبرانند

هر چند که لانبی بعدی
اوصاف و قصیده و غزل را

فردوسی و انوری و سعدی

English translation

Sheikh Saadi Shirazi - may God the Exalted have mercy upon him. His name is Muslih al-Din, and indeed 'Saadi' is a reference to the name of his patron. He is the exemplar of the ghazal-writers; no one before him practiced the way of the ghazal more than he did, and his words have found acceptance among all groups. One of the poets said, and truly he pierced the pearl of fairness: In poetry, three persons are prophets, Though there be no prophet after me; For description, qasida, and ghazal: Ferdowsi, Anvari, and Saadi.
