Abu Nazar ʿAbdul ʿAziz bin Mansur ʿAsjadi (Persian: ابونظر عبدالعزیز بن منصور عسجدی) was a 10th-11th century royal Persian poet of the Ghaznavid empire located in the Ghazni province of today's Afghanistan.
Originating from Merv, and in some accounts Herat, he was a follower of the panegyric school of poetry of Unsuri in Khorasan, and was a companion of Farrukhi Sistani and Ferdowsi as well.[1][2]
His Divan was already unavailable by the 15th century (if not earlier) and is unknown though around 200 of his verses had been recorded elsewhere.[2] A quatrain attributed to Asjadi was translated by Edward Granville Browne as follows:
I do repent of wine and talk of wine,
Of idols fair with charms like silver fine:
A lip-repentance and a lustful heart—
O God, forgive this penitence of mine![3]
Another verse, quoted in the Qabus-Nama and attributed to Asjadi, is also translated by Browne: "In youth or age did the question lie, / The young would live and the old would die."[4]
Asjadi died between 1040-1043 CE.[2]
