Abstract
AS A AN EXAMPLE OF SÂKÎNÂME DEHHÂNÎ’S GHAZAL WITH “OLA” RADIF
Ishrat assemblies are meetings where activities such as eating, drinking, chatting, singing songs and reading poems are held. Musicians accompany the drinks and poems sung in these meetings. Backgammon and chess are played in assemblies where there are sâkî, lovers, friends, spices, candles and various scents. Ishrat meetings are usually held in a beautiful garden by a pool, illuminated by the brightness of the moonlight, in the spring season. Ishrat assemblies have been the subject of ghazals, rubais, masnawis, terkib-i bent and terci-i bents as meetings where pleasant conversations are held. Sakînâmes, on the other hand, stand out as a different literary genre that talks about sâkî, liquor, types of liquor, liquor tools and equipment, liquor meetings, pitchers, squares, lovers, seasons, and the meals in the liquor assembly.
Dehhânî, one of the founders of classical Turkish poetry, included the elements that should be in the ishrat assembly in his ghazal with "ola" radif. It is noteworthy that this text, which has the characteristics of a sâkînâme, was written in the form of a very rare ghazal. Addressing the reader in the entire ghazal, the poet included more concrete concepts as he explained the sign assembly. Dehhânî has described the sign assembly as a place in the text. In the ghazal, many elements such as alcohol, types and characteristics of alcohol, eating and drinking, glass, sâkî, mutrip and musical instruments, lovers, candles, a pool filled to the brim, a green garden, backgammon and chess are included. Ghazal has the characteristic of a sâkînâme in this respect.
