Özet

When classical Arabic and Turkish poetry is viewed from a broad perspective, these two important representatives of Muslim literature in the East share many similarities in terms of poetic meter and verse forms, literary genres, and themes. This research focuses on the theme of "concealment and disclosure of love," which is one of the most common subjects on which Arab and Turkish poets write. We aim to shed light on classic Arabic and Turkish poets and the similarities between their poetry in this work. According to the narratives, the lover (poet) hides his love because he fears being condemned. However, the fire of love that burns in his heart causes him all kinds of problems, and the secret of love that he hides becomes apparent, sometimes through tears, sometimes through heartache, and sometimes through physical weakness and yellowness of the face (fever). Despite the fear of being exposed, this state of the lover who betrays himself has been the subject of many poems, and the signs by which poets reveal their secret state of love have been compared to a whistleblower in both literary traditions.
