Mele Perîşan [Note 1] (born Mohammad Abulqasim, [6] 1356–1431, Kurdish: مەلا پەرێشان, romanized: Mele Perîşan) was a Kurdish poet who wrote in Kurdish. [6] His main work Parishan-nama is considered to be the oldest work in Gorani. [2] He also wrote in Laki, [7] and many of his works are kept in different libraries in Iran. [8] Mele Perîşan was affiliated with the Ardalan vassaldom. [9]
Very little is known about the life of Mele Perîşan, but it is plausible that he was born in Dinavar and of the Ghiasvand tribe. [6] He was Shia, Hurufist, [10] spoke Arabic, Persian and Turkish beside Kurdish, [11] and spent most of his life in the Dinavar area. [12]
He was passionate about his religion in his poetry and was moreover an admirer of Rabia of Basra and her position on halal. [9] While Parishan-nama is his main work, he also wrote popular drinking songs in Kurdish which have become popular among Kurds and Iranians. [8]
The diwan Parishan-nama was written in Gorani with many Laki words, and contained Hurufist propaganda. [1] It is the only known Hurifist text in Kurdish. [13] It was first printed in Kermanshah in 1916 and subsequently printed several times in different places. It had a syllabic meter, which was a common characteristic of Gorani poetry. [2]
