Abstract
Rudaki of Samarqand, the master of poets and the father of Persian poetry, is one of the peaks of the Iranian language and literature, and his few poems have attracted the attention of researchers in the last century. The importance of this issue is related to the exploration of early poems and the analysis of how Persian-Dari poems were formed. On the other hand, Persian-speaking people in Iran, Tajikistan, Afghanistan and other countries consider Rudaki and his poems to have a special place among Persian-speaking poets; therefore, any brief or detailed statement about Rudaki's surviving poems is very valuable, and undoubtedly, finding new points in his poems requires reflection and analysis of documented and advanced sources. One of these important sources is dictionaries, and among them, the archive of Rudaki's verses in Halimi's dictionary (Bahr al-Gharaeb) is efficient and effective due to the author's use of reliable sources before him, such as the Persian Dictionary and the Persian Compendium, which has not been considered by the accurate and scholarly correctors of Divan of Rudaki. For this reason, the authors in this article, after examining all the verses attributed to Rudaki in Halimi's dictionary, have selected three important verses from the 120 verses in it that have unique and noteworthy archives. They then evaluated these verses and showed why these archives are authentic or noteworthy and are preferable to the archive of the correctors.
