He probably lived in Hamadan. His byname, \u02bfOry\u0101n (\u201cThe Naked\u201d), suggests that he was a wandering dervish, or mystic.\u00a0Legend\u00a0tells that the poet, an illiterate woodcutter, attended lectures at a religious college, where he was ridiculed by the scholars and students because of his lack of education and sophistication. After experiencing a vision in which philosophic truths were revealed to him, he returned to the school and spoke of what he had seen, astounding those present by his wisdom. His\u00a0poetry\u00a0is written in a\u00a0dialect\u00a0of\u00a0Persian, and he is most famous for his\u00a0<em>du-bayt\u012b<\/em>\u00a0(double distichs), exhibiting in melodious and flowing language a sincerity and spirituality with profound philosophical undertones. B\u0101b\u0101 \u1e6c\u0101her is highly revered even now in\u00a0Iran, and a mausoleum was erected for him in Hamadan in 1965 (restored 2004). Many of his poems have been translated into English in E. Heron-Allen\u2019s\u00a0<em>The Laments of Baba Tahir<\/em>\u00a0(1902), A.J. Arberry\u2019s\u00a0<em>Poems of a Persian S\u016bf\u012b<\/em>\u00a0(1937), and in Mehdi Nakhosteen\u2019s\u00a0<em>The Rub\u00e1iyy\u00e1t of B\u00e1b\u00e1 T\u00e1hir Ory\u00e1n<\/em>\u00a0(1967).<\/p>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-5803 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/specialexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/421925910_52242-1-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/specialexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/421925910_52242-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/specialexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/421925910_52242-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/specialexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/421925910_52242-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/specialexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/421925910_52242-1-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/specialexplorer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/421925910_52242-1.jpg 1152w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In Pahlavi era a council was founded by Farah the queen to restore many historical places in Iran and the mausoleum of Babatahir was of those places which was totally restored and reconstructed. The architecture is a fine combination of Persian and Western cultures in which the Persian one shows its beauty in the shape of a dome which represents a turban besides great tile works that touches your heart besides the Western one in which the tough stones remind you of Le Corbusier style. Inside of this place are full of his poems on the walls and the amazing point would be the Dervishes who gather there while singing those poems.<\/p>\n<p>To visit this mystic place you just need to go to Babatahir square which one of the most famous places in the city of Hamedan.<\/p>\n<p>Special thanks to Britannica.com<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A naked man who dressed the Persian poetry&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":5799,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_bbp_topic_count":0,"_bbp_reply_count":0,"_bbp_total_topic_count":0,"_bbp_total_reply_count":0,"_bbp_voice_count":0,"_bbp_anonymous_reply_count":0,"_bbp_topic_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_reply_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_forum_subforum_count":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[750],"tags":[1213,1215,1214,997,1202],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.2.1 -
