Abstract :
Contemporary Arab and Persian poets, especially the poets of “Exile” doctrine in Arabic literature, have capitalized life, death and human destiny after death in his poetic meditations in different ways. As thought of these issues has been a steady stream of contemporary poetry. Fawzi Maalouf and Ahmad Shamloo have considerable, and in more cases, similar perspectives in this regard. Both poets are pessimistic about life and see it a battle field between good and evil; though, Shamloo gets optimistic when the social situation is going well. The two know death as the only way to save from the pain of life.From the irview points, death is an inevitable fact that one should bow down in front of it; and they refuge in the arms of love from it, while they don’t know death as the end of man’s life.
