Alisher Navoi is widely regarded as the "Sultan of the Ghazal Empire." Because the poems of the great thinker should be an example to all artists, not only in terms of numbers, but also in terms of artistic criteria. Navoi not only mastered the creative traditions of his time, but also raised them to a new level in terms of content and level. The ghazal genre, which has a three-hundred-year history before Alisher Navoi, has reached its peak with its creative pen. He was revered as a poet by all peoples from China to Khorasan. The poet isolated them under the banner of literary language. It was this service that contributed to the strengthening of various ties between nations and to the expansion of spiritual development. Alisher, who was passionate about poetry and music, was a 3-4 year old boy when he memorized a poem by the famous poet Qasim Anwar, explained its content and amazed everyone. In general, Alisher Navoi was a poet who "did not find his time completely free from poetic or prose inventions, when, due to his original nature and ability, the arrows of happiness were aimed at the quality of words, and the pearls of pearls spoke of the secrets of the name of Buzrukvors."Mir Alisher Navoi described the realities of life with his wide-ranging thoughts and sharp observations. The number of words used in all his works is 26,035. This number indicates that the poet used 5,000 more words than Pushkin, the most widely used representative of Russian literature, and about 7,000 more than Shakespeare. For this reason, the interest in the work of Navoi, a man of extraordinary talent, and the essence of his works began in the life of the poet. The passion is so popular that the poet wrote his first "Devon" at the age of 23-24. This book became known in history as the First Devon. As early as the 16th century, dictionaries such as Badoe ul-lug'at, Navoi lugʻati, and Abushqa were compiled in order to capture the essence of these ghazals. The poet's creative power was so strong that Nizami Ganjavi spent exactly thirty years writing "Khamsa", while Navoi completed a huge work of 54,000 lines in two years. If we take into account only the days worked on the work, this opportunity is equal to 6 months. During the XVI-XIX centuries, the poet's works were translated and published in Persian, Turkish, Tatar, Georgian, Azerbaijani, Italian, German, French, Dutch and other languages. Today, in many cities around the world, there are streets named after our ancestors. In addition, statues of Navoi have been erected in Tashkent, Samarkand, Navoi, Ashgabat, Moscow, Tokyo and Baku. The Navoi State Prize and Scholarship have been established in our country.
