directed at unveiling similarities and differences of mystical significance between
Nizami's The Story of Layla Majnzm and Love Song of the Dark Lord. Jeyadem's
Gitagovinda. The study is conducted on theoretical constructs of Hermeneutics. guided
by traditional norms and conventions of Persian and Sanskrit literary expression. and
informed by the Traditionalist perspective of religion. These considerations represent
the platform for the understanding and interpretation of elements or phenomena in the
texts as symbolic expressions of the Sufi and Bhakti mystico-religious traditions.

mistik di antara dua ekspresi sastera yang unggul, iaitu The Story ofLayla Majnwz oleh
Nizami, dan Love Song of the Dark Lord, Jeyadeva's Gitagovinda. Kajian dilakukan
berasaskan pendekatan Hermeneutik, berpandu kepada norma dan konvensi sastera
tradisional Parsi dan Sanskrit, dan merujuk kepada persepektif Traditionalisme terhadap
agama. Asas-asas tersebut merupakan landasan kepada kefahaman dan tafsiran elemen
atau fenomena dalam teks sebagai ekspresi simbolik tradisi mistik-agama Sufi dan
