Abstract
The verse "Ey Gol To doush Daghe Sabouhi Keshidei/Ma An Shaghayeghim Ke Ba Dagh Zadeim" is one of Hafez's controversial verses, which has many ambiguities about its meaning. Such as what is the meaning of Daghe Sabouhi? Or what specific meaning can Dagh Keshidan have? Or the question of what does "saboohi" in meaning morning wine have to do with "Doush" in the meaning last night? But the problem here is that all commentators have suggested a similar meaning for the verse despite these questions. The existence of these questions made us try to suggest a documented meaning for verse by using analytical-descriptive method and by examining the general concept of Sonnet in this article. To achieve this goal, Halliday & Hasan's lexical coherence theory was used. A theory that seeks to find cohesion factors in the text by relying on the relationships between words at the level of sentences. In this regard, the entire poem was first divided into four parts, and then based on the type and frequency of words, the meanings related (Seme) to each part were extracted. In the next step, the verse was reread based on the semantic relationships of the words and considering the Seme of the entire Sonnet. The result of the work was the suggestion of this meaning for the verse: O (red) flower, you have engraved the mark of drunkenness on your face since last night; while we are (like) anemones who were born with the sign of drunkenness and euphoria.
