They were repeatedly copied by different calligraphers both during the poet's lifetime and after, until the 19th century. Among them is “Mahbub al-Qulub” (“Beloved of Hearts”), consisting of three parts and being Navoi’s final brilliant work. The manuscript was copied by calligrapher Khaliqnazar Khaliifa ibn Usta Kurban in 1239/1824. We can also mention the collection of lyrical poems, "Gharayb al-Sighar" ("Wonders of Childhood"), which was copied in 1284/1867.
