Divan Literature includes every phenomenon and every notion and every knowledge in life that has a place in spirit, and process these using the three languages, adds aesthetic value and makes it ready to use. Besides, the poets of Divan Literature process daily life situations in their minds using their imagination. We can see even the most ordinary metaphors in their poems. While doing this, they wouldn’t change the metaphor and use it with its reflections in daily life. Thus, Divan literature is not isolated from reality. In this article, tavern and properties related to tavern–often used by Divan poets-in ghazals of 18th century poet Sünbülzâde Vehbi were discussed and the properties in tavern were shown on couplets chosen.
