One of the most important aspects of Hafiz’s poems is harmony between form and sense.
Their relationship is so significant that leads Hafiz to widely use the sign system and
connotation in his work so that his poetry has the aesthetic form, common meaning as
well as hidden and secondary meaning. The present paper aimed to show that Hafiz has
used parallelism as signs to increase the meaning.
Implication of signs in parallelism involves two forms including the movement of mind
which is not in the direction from the parallelism in the couplet towards another word
or concept which is not in the couplet; and the words in the couplet which seems not to
have parallelism but they are paralleled with a word out of couplet and guide the reader's
mind towards the word. In this paper, the former is called intertextuality and the latter is
called hypertext signs; totally, twelve samples were investigated using library research and
on the basis of content analysis.
