Abstract

Part of the new critique is devoted to examining the language features of literary works. In Persian, most researches have been done in the field of mysticism and epic language and so far no model has been presented for studying lyrical-narrative language. In order to find a model for the study of lyrical-narrative language, five levels: phonetic, grammatical, content, lexical and rhetorical in fourteen important Persian Vers were studied in a complete induction manner. Simia software and Noor 3 receiver software were used in data analysis and classification. The type of research is analytical-descriptive and these results can be considered as the result of this study: In terms of prosodic Meter, the Hazaj is mostly Category n amount of six omitted . The current row is of interest. The predominant denominator is abrasion. The words of the spiritual realm and consciences, natural elements and festive elements are among the important aspects of this language. The presence of the verb in the middle of the verses or shutters, the omission of the verbs and, consequently, the Calm tone of the verses are noticeable. Increasing the discrete pronouns” me” and “us” can increase the introversion of the Verse. In terms of the most widely used rhetorical industries, there is the metaphor of Morashahe, Implicit metaphor, simile with both sides bound, Additional simile and Baligh simile. Increased  Emotional sentences, increased descriptions and Circumlocution, increased exaggeration, high frequency of active presence of women and feminine and delicate language are other features of this language.
Keywords: Linguistic pattern, Lyrical language, Verse.
Introduction
The method of this research is to provide a model for examining the lyric-narrative language in romantic poems by using the views of several Western theorists as well as the theorists’ opinions. This criterion has the ability to check different linguistic indicators and can determine the distinctive features of the Ghanaian language. To achieve this goal, fourteen important Persian romantic poems from the beginning of Tapayan of the 8th century AH (about 65000 verses) were analyzed. Because usually, the bold combination of epic, mystical and lyrical literary types is evident in romantic poems. This research is evaluated in the method of total induction in the extracted indicators of the lyrical language in order to be suitable for the proposed benchmark model. The proposed pattern of studying the lyrical language by this research is predicted in five levels: first level: phonetic and musical level. second level: vocabulary level. third level: rhetorical and literary level. Fourth level: grammar indicators. The fifth level of resource indicators.
Discussion
Examining the characteristics of lyrical-narrative language
3-1- Examining phonetic and musical characteristics
A: Prosodic weight
  Hazaj weight is the best option for inducing a lyrical tone in romantic songs.
B: Radif: It is very important to be melodious in lyrical language and it is one of the important elements of creating a song in Radif poetry. According to this research, the frequency of the current row in the most important romance systems is higher than other rows.
C: Phonology (combination of sounds): In the lyrical language, abrasive sounds usually take precedence over other sounds, and this is taken from the soothing effect of these sounds. Khishumi and Rwan are also influenced by abrasive sounds, and they often facilitate expression in all types of literature.
2-3- Examining the lexical features of the lyrical-narrative language
A: Type of vocabulary: By examining more than 200 lyrical words in the discussed systems, this research was able to achieve these details in the field of lyrical-narrative vocabulary: 1- Elements and natural words: in the lyrical language of this group, including all kinds of flowers, plants, Animals and heavenly bodies are 2-Elements of God 3-Elements of luxury and aristocracy 4-Words related to the beloved 5-Spiritual and conscientious elements 6-Parts of the body
2-3- Examining the lexical features of the lyrical-narrative language
A: Type of vocabulary: By examining more than 200 lyrical words in the discussed systems, this research was able to achieve these details in the field of lyrical-narrative vocabulary: 1- Elements and natural words: in the lyrical language of this group, including all kinds of flowers, plants, Animals and heavenly bodies are 2-Elements of God 3-Elements of luxury and aristocracy 4-Words related to the beloved 5-Spiritual and conscientious elements 6-Parts of the body
3-3- Examining the grammatical characteristics of lyrical-narrative language
3-3-1- Verbs: Verbs are mostly omitted in lyrical language. Also, the frequency of using simple and descriptive verbs is the highest.
B: The position of the verb: the original in the lyrical language is the softness and melody of the beat. For this reason, if the verb is not deleted in the sentence, the location of the verb is either in the middle of the stanza, or based on the composition of the Persian language, the verb is located at the end of the stanza, which can be rowed or rhymed.
3-3-2- Noun: Pronouns: Introversion is one of the most important features of lyrical literature. Among the methods that determine the degree of introversion of the work is the frequency of pronouns. There are many pronouns “me” and “ma” in lyrical literature.
3-4- Examining the most used rhetorical features of the lyrical-narrative language
Ghanaian language is one of the complex languages due to its beauty. The high frequency of literary arts such as: metaphor, simile, irony, allusion, etc. causes the lyrical language to have a difficult linguistic level.
3-5- Examining the content characteristics of lyrical-narrative language
3-5-1- description
3-5-2- Being non-fictional
3-5-3- High frequency of presence of women and girls
3-5-4- Feminine and gentle language
Conclusion
Based on this research, the following model can be effective for examining lyrical-narrative language:
Lyrical-narrative language is mostly omitted in romantic poems due to the weight of hazj mesads with zahafat, and the musical richness of this language is increased by choosing this Bahr Aroozudi. Also, in order to increase the rhythm of the verses, the current row and mainly simple and descriptive verbs are of interest. The presence of documentary verbs can play an important role in the dynamics of verses and images. The proper phoneme of this language is in the denominator of abrasive sounds. In terms of the type of words, the high frequency of the words of the spiritual and emotional domain, natural elements (plants, animals, heavenly bodies) and other elements are among the important aspects of this language. The presence of verbs in the middle of verses or stanzas, the absence of verbs, and consequently the rhythm of the verses are very important in lyrical-narrative language. Increasing the discrete pronouns me and us can increase the introversion of the systems and bring them closer to the lyrical pole. In terms of the most widely used rhetorical techniques, this language is inclined to the metaphor of the expository metaphor, metaphorical metaphor, simile with bound parties, simile addition, and eloquent simile, and with these techniques, it adds to the complexity of this language. Increasing the compositional sentences helps to increase the rhythm of the verses and brings peace to the verses. Also, the increase of adjectives and adverbs in this language moves the poem from news to narration and emphasizes the narrative element. Increasing exaggeration strengthens the dimension of realism instead of imaginative exaggerations. The high frequency of the active presence of women and feminine and gentle language makes the lyrical-narrative language different from other languages.
