The image of a tree in the lyrics of Rauf Parfi

Abstract

Rauf Parfi is a talented writer who entered the field of Uzbek literature during the independence period with his pleasant voice and name. The rich heritage of the poet is still in the focus of attention of readers. The well-known theoretician scientist Ilhom Ganiyev writes about Rauf Parfi's work: "Rauf Parfi's work is an example of intellectual poetry, and his readers are not the masses, but people of a certain characteristic. To be able to perceive, analyze and interpret this poetry, to understand the meanings of the words requires a much deeper familiarity with the literary process, world poetry and philosophical thinking. The fact that these works are a few steps ahead of poetry today is a beacon for other artists. A true work of art is not chosen by the era, therefore it is natural that generations strive for it, study it with interest" [Ganiyev I. 2021:7]. Our teacher Ilhom Ganiyev evaluates the poet's philosophical and artistic work, praises this "work of art" and says that Rauf Parfi's work is a lesson for other poets.
