Bahar-i Ajam (Persian: بهار عجم) is an 18th-century dictionary of Persian words and idioms used in Persian poetry. The author of the work was the Indian poet Lala Tik Chand (died 1766), a Khatri from Delhi, who probably started writing it in 1720, completed it in 1739, and published the book in 1743.[1]
