Baloch folk literature has a great diversity, the major part of which is poetry. Various types of poetry could be found in all aspects of people's lives which indicates their public taste for poetry and literature. Nazink is one of the oldest aspects of the oral literature of the Baloch people, which is still prevalent throughout Balochistan and is sung by Baloch people, especially mothers, describing their children. According to the available evidence, Nazink's structure is similar to a Balochi lullaby. Its content is diverse and mostly a description of the characteristics that have been considered for worthy girls and boys in the past. These poems show the pride of mothers and fathers towards their children, expressing their wishes. These poems are rhythmic, fluent and eloquent in terms of language which is significant for literature. There is a rhyme in most of the verses. Accordingly, the purpose of this research is to introduce a type of Baloch folk poetry that has not been studied so far. This research has been done in a fundamental way, based on field research and descriptive-analytical method.
