Bundar Razi was an Iranian poet of the 10th and 11th-centuries, who composed poetry in New Persian and his own local dialect. A native of Ray, Bundar served at the court of the Buyid ruler Majd al-Dawla (r. 997–1029).[1]

According to the modern historian Hassan Rezai Baghbidi, while the local dialect that Bundar wrote in has been called Fahlawi or even Daylami, it is in reality the Razi dialect.[2]
