Majd al-Din Hamgar (Persian: مجد الدین همگر; 1210 – 1287), also known as Majd-i Hamgar (مجد همگر), was a Persian poet and courtier of the 13th-century. While most likely born in Yazd, he is regularly referred to as "Shirazi", and often referred to himself as "Majd-i Parsi", which connects him to the southwestern Iranian region of Pars (Fars).[1][2]
