An analysis of a selection of Imam Alt's language, based on two significant linguistic principles oftextlinguistics, i.e. textual Cohesion, and parallelism is presented in this article. Cohesion, is one of the characteristics of a text. It establishes syntactic or word links among the text's elements and makes semantic and conceptual connections possible. Parallelism, a literal process classified on the three levels of phonetics, word, and syntax, is achieved through verbal repetition (see: Widdowson, 1975, pp. 27 - 46 and Jackobson, 1967, pp. 296 - 322). This article attempts to illuminate the truth of the phrase Nahj al- Bollig a,
which means "a beautiful method of speaking" by presenting some examples.
