Abstract
The symbol is one of the imagery tools in literature that, because of its semantic multiplicity, enables the expression of complex social and critical concepts. During the Pahlavi period, due to the tyrannical atmosphere, the symbol of the poets gained a special place, and after the Islamic Revolution and the imposed war, its social dimension became more pronounced. As one of the committed poets of this era, Kaiser Aminpour has used symbols to reflect social and human concerns. This descriptive -analytical study by examining the two morning breathing offices and in the alley of the sun shows that Aminpour uses natural symbols (tulips, leaves, rain, etc.), historical -religious symbols (Ashura, Abraham, ignorant idols, etc.) and colors (red, green, black, etc.). The achievement of the research shows that the symbolic language in Aminpour's poems is not only a tool for the indirect expression of social protest, but also plays an important role in linking poetry, history and collective experience of society.
