Jami is a famous poet and mystic of the ninth century AH. His most important works are Haft Aurang, which includes the seven Mathnavi: Selselatozzahab, Salaman and Absal, Tohfatol-Ahrar, Sobhatol-Abrar, Yusuf and Zuleykha, Lily and Majnoon, and the Xeradname Eskandari. Selselatozzahab is the first Mathnavi of this book. Jami has composed this Mathnavi in three books in the style of Hadiqah, Al-Haqiqah Sanai and Jām-e Jam Ouhadi. Selselatozzahab has been published several times both in Iran and abroad. Among them, two editions of Morteza Modarres Gilani and the Miras Maktoob Institute are more available than others and are the place of reference for researchers. In these two editions, despite the commendable efforts of the proofreaders and their use of the various editions of Haft Orang, unfortunately, these two editions are not reliable editions, and there are many mistakes in these editions. Both prints have problems recognizing and recording the correct form of the text. In this article, the recording of a number of verses has been reviewed and corrected. The text, verses number and page have been presented based on the correction of the Miras Maktoob Institute and have been compared with other sources. These sources include the publication of Morteza Modarres Gilani, an article by Hadi Khadivar, and several oldest manuscripts of the Selselatozzahab. Although some errors have been pointed out from both the printing of Modarres Gilani and the Selselatozzahab, but in the main part of the article, verses were selected that are incorrect both in the printing of Modarres and in the correction of the Selselatozzahab. has not done. If there was a correct form in one of these three sources, we did not bring it except in special cases when it was necessary. In correcting these verses, the lexical points, semantic, stylistic, linguistic and textual proportions of Jami have been taken into account.
