| Summary: | This article examines poems dedicated to the martyr Qūryāqōs by the eminent East Syriac poet and patriarch ʿAḇdīšōʿ of Gāzartā (d. 1570).

Additionally, a critical edition and translation of one of the poems, the turgāmā, is given, based on available manuscripts. A special place in the article is given to the correlation of the poetic texts under consideration with the prose versions of the hagiography of this martyr, which was used as a source by ʿAḇdīšōʿ of Gāzartā. |
