Abulqosim Ahmadzoda Lohuti[a] (12 October 1887 – 16 March 1957) was an Iranian-Soviet poet and political activist who was active in Iran during the Persian Constitutional Revolution and in Tajikistan in the early Soviet era.

Born on 12 October 1887 in Kermanshah to an Iranian cobbler and religious poet[1] named Mirza Ahmad Elhami,[2] he began writing poetry in early adolescence under the pen name Lahouti (which Encyclopædia Iranica translates as 'belonging to the world of the occult').

[2] After being convicted by a court in Qom and sentenced to death, he fled to Turkey, but soon returned and joined forces with Sheikh Mohammad Khiabani in Tabriz.

After marrying a Russian student named Cecilia Bakaleyshchik, who would become a Persian-language poet and translator under the pen name Cecilia Banu (Sisil Banu),[3] he was unable to initiate a coup d'etat against the central government of Iran, so he gave up and moved to USSR where he remained until his final days.

Other works of his include Kaveh the Blacksmith («Коваи оҳангар», 1947), Kremlin («Кремл», 1923), The Crown and the Flag («Тоҷ ва байрақ», 1935), among many others.
