Coquetry (nāz) and yearning (niyāz) are among the foundational and most recurrent motifs in the amatory and mystical ghazals of Persian literature—motifs that lend meaning to the lover–beloved relationship and sculpt the emotional and gnostic architecture of the poem. In this dynamic, nāz embodies the beloved’s self-sufficient majesty and the radiant display of his/her beauty and glory, while niyāz manifests the lover’s ardent longing, ignited in response to the beloved’s coquetry. Adopting a descriptive-analytical approach, the present study centres on the ghazals of Rumi and Hafez to explore how nāz and niyāz are represented and semantically elaborated in their oeuvre, thereby illuminating the profound divergences in their world-views, mystical orientations, and conceptions of love. Findings reveal that Rumi regards nāz as the epiphany of divine majesty (jalāl) and niyāz as the soul’s insatiable yearning for absolute union, whereas Hafez fusing earthly and celestial love re-stages nāz and niyāz in a reciprocal, ever-shifting theatre of desire. The study demonstrates that nāz and niyāz do not merely configure the emotional scaffolding of the Persian ghazal; they also unlock deeper insight into the psychology and spirituality of the lover–beloved bond. By offering a comparative lens, this inquiry grants readers a renewed aperture onto the interplay of amatory content and poetic cosmology in classical Persian ghazals, underscoring the enduring vitality and transformative elasticity of these motifs across the centuries.
