Abstract
Enverî's Interesting Mawlid-i Sherif: Sünbül-i Gülzâr-ı Kelâm-ı Kadîm
There are more than a hundred works of Mevlid in the
classical Turkish literature. One of these works is the
Mevlûd-i Şerîf of Enverî-i Erzincânî, whom I think lived
in the 17th or 18th century, when it was written and who
was not known enough. In this article, this works although
it is mentioned in the sources, it is not introduced and published,
considering the two copies of Çorum Hasan Pasha
Manuscript Library, introduction and examination of the
work it is aimed to take its place in the literature of mawlid.
This mawlid of 141 couplets which Enverî named with a
special title in the form of Sünbül-i Gülzâr-ı Kelâm-ı
Kadîm the work has a separate position within hundreds of
mawlids, and is an interesting text, contrary to tradition.
Because the poem is a different text with some features,
such as the writing of the qsida, measure, having a tawhid
written in Persian, starting to the qsida praise himself directly.
In the study, after giving information about the
work and the author, the text will be translated from the
Arabic alphabet to the Latin alphabet and the value of the
poem will be revealed in the mawlid tradition.
