Abstract
Khosrow Anūshirvan who was the just is among the most illustrious Sasanian kings due to his words of advice presented in Persian literature. In addition to the fact that his words of advice are included in various texts, some poets have also organized them as verse. One of the most-popular words of advice attributed to him was presented in his coronation ceremony and was first organized as verse by Badye Balkhi in the Rahat al-Ensan. Anūshirvan 's Pandname  was also organized as verse by another poet whose name has not been known so far. In this study, the versified poems are attributed to Amir Hakim Burhani whose son's name is Amir Moazzi. There are very few verses belonging to him, and also there seems to be some doubt as to their attribution to him. Accordingly, this versified poem comprising of 235 couplets is very important. The name of the poet is mentioned in the end of one of the versions of this versified poem included in one volume with the best and the most beautiful selection of Rozat-Al-nazer- o- Nozhat-Al-khater and some other versified poems and also stylistic clues support this attribution.
