Although he had some critical poems on Iran – Russia relations during his life time, he had great admiration about Alexander Sergeyevich Pushkin’s personality and his works who was famous Russian writer and poet. As a result of this fascination, he had written two poems for this great Russian writer and poet in his divan. In this study, Bahâr’s two poems will be examined by mentioning Bahâr’s and Pushkin's literary personalities. The first poem is called “Dorud be Pushkin” means (Salute/Praise for Pushkin) which Bahâr wrote while he was sick in his bed for Pushkin’s 150th birth anniversary. This poem consists eight couplets and he tells his admiration to Pushkin and mentions that Pushkin actually is not dead for years because he lives with his works and he always will. And the second poem is called “Bena-yi Yadegar” means (House of memories), which the Iranian minister of culture of that period asked Bahâr to translate Puskin’s this poem into Persian. This poem consists twenty six couplets and in this poem Bahâr tells that Pushkin had build a structure by his works of art and this building will remain forever until a single person remains in this country (Russia). Also at the end of this poem Bahâr had added two more couplets to it.},author={Soner İŞİMTEKİN},year={2014},journal={International Journal of Language Academy}}
