Naziri Nishapuri

Naziri (1560–1612/14) left his native city of Nishapur after the death of his father and travelled to western Persia as a merchant. He was an accomplished poet when he migrated to India, as the first Persian-born poet to join the court of the Mughal statesman and literary patron ʿAbd-ul-Raḥim Khān-e Khānān.
