One of the cases of the use of Contradiction and Paradox in literary works is the description of the lover and the beloved, Because the power of love is beyond what can flow in the normal speech of the language. To describe the concept of love poets and writers go beyond ordinary language to better express the state of the lover and the beloved. In this research, an attempt has been made to answer this question by using critical discourse analysis and Fairclough's three-dimensional model, what is the role and position of Contradiction and Paradox in expressing the state of the lover and the beloved The result of the research is that Contradiction and Paradox are evident at all levels of Fairclough's theory. The use of Contradiction and Paradox to express the state of the lover is more than the beloved. The gender difference makes the poet use different methods of contradiction and paradox to describe the lover and the beloved. The male sex has more power than the female, and the poet uses a more obvious contrast, But because revealing the issues of love for the female gender is against the custom, he uses contrast.

One of the effective methods to study the semantic aspects of mystical language in literary texts is critical discourse analysis, which is a new attitude of discourse analysis in linguistics studies that analyses texts considering sociocultural context. The present research analyses Hafez's mystical language with an analytic-descriptive method and based on Fairclough’s pattern and answers to this issue: How and why did Hafez create his mystical discourse and make it comprehensible? For this purpose, after describing Hafez's mystical sonnets according to Halliday’s systemic-functional linguistics framework and relying on the interpersonal metafunction of language in that framework, by observing the interlingual and extralingual contexts and with an intertextual analysis, it pulls out the reasons and explanations required from the beddings of his words and interprets and explains them ideologically. The results of the research indicate that factors performing the interpersonal metafunction in Hafez’s language are marked and discursive; they play an ideological role and are considered discursive features. The interpretation and explanation of these meaning features indicate that worldview, ideology, power relations and epistemological devices are the main effective factors in the formation and comprehension of Hafez’s mystical discourse. The achievement of the present research is to justify and describe Hafez's mystical language scientifically and pattern based and also to express how and why his mystical discourse is formed, produced and comprehended with applying effective and reliable instruments of critical discourse analysis. Therefore, the achieved results are based on linguistics authentic and reasonable rudiments and are also far from generalization and its following mistakes.
