Ayyuqi ( Persian: عیوقی) was an 11th-century Persian poet. A contemporary of the Ghaznavid ruler Mahmud of Ghazni ( r. 998–1030) he wrote the epic Varqa wa Golshāh (ورقه و گلشاه) in 2,250 verses, which is a story of the love between a youth named Varqa and a maiden, Golshah. [1] In the introduction, he eulogizes Mahmud of Ghazni. [1] According to the poet himself, the story is based on the Arabic work ‘Orwa wa ‘Afra. The work survives in a unique manuscript dated to the mid-13th century and made in Konya ( Seljuk Rum), which is now located in the Topkapi Museum (Topkapı Sarayı Müzesi, Hazine 841 H.841). [2]. Ayyuqi also wrote some qasidas. No reliable information about Ayyuqi has come down. [1] His works are characterized by paired rhyme interspersed with ghazal.
