Abstract

Believing the crucial role of music in declining the level of stress on the one hand, and regarding it as both a cheap and adequate tool for instruction on the other hand have been led to creation of musical art during the pandemy of Coronavirus-covid 19. While such works have some artistic and aesthetic appeals in common, regardless of style and instrument, the content and theme their lyricists intend to introduce make them distinguish. These themes are various and include social concerns, political stances and educational and ethical issues. This paper is a contrastive analysis of two pieces of Iranian and Afghan lyrics to determine the linguistic features of art works in the different mental attitudes. The study has been conducted based on theoretical concepts of cognitive linguistics especially conceptual metaphor. The data of this qualitative research including the lyrics of Reza Sadeghi, an Iranian singer, and Farhad Darya, an Afghan on, has been examined by analytical method. The findings of present study suggest that, through the process of formulation of a specific metaphor for conceptualizing one single reality, the highlighting of various elements in the source domain leads to the promotion of opposing ideologies which in turn may form a complete antinomy.
