Conceptual metaphor is one of the new trends in cognitive linguistics in which the concept of one domain is mapped to another domain and the concept of the second domain is understood through the first domain. Using this approach, the present study expresses the abstract concepts of freedom for readers in a simple and tangible way; because from Lakoff's point of view, metaphor is a way in which an abstract and mental conceptual realm is understood based on a sensory and known conceptual realm based on human socio-cultural experiences. The findings of the research clarify that Wasif Bakhtari, a famous contemporary Persian Dari poet from Balkh-Afghanistan, has mapped the domains of origin as cognitive structures, especially from his own experiences to explain more intangible concepts and the domain of destination, and has effectively expressed the concept of freedom, although in most cases he has not used the word freedom. Since no matter how much humans are deprived of something, they are equally fascinated and encouraged to obtain it. With the developments that have occurred in human life in recent centuries, the role of freedom in human social life has become more prominent and has become a subject of cultural, literary and social complexity. The research method is qualitative and data was collected from Bakhtari's poems and the conceptual metaphor of freedom in them has been identified and analyzed
