Bullet item in XeLatex not appeared as expected

Question

I used following code to add bullet but it's seems has some problem with XeLatex. It shows line (dash) instead of bullet. How can I fix this?

\begin{itemize}
\item \textit{irBlogs}
\item \textit{Hamshahri}
\end{itemize}

result is something like below:

To help us help you, you should add a complete MWE beginning at \documentclass and ending at \end{document} which recreates your issue. Note that there are several packages which might change the symbol used by itemize and that a nested itemize can have a different symbol from an unnested one. You can specify the used symbol (if it should be different than the rest) using the optional argument \item[$\bullet$] but using this for every item is tedious. — Skillmon, Sep 13 '17 at 12:05
I bet that you have a nested itemize list. It is not a bug, it is a feature, the sublist have by default this symbol. But you can change if you are not happy with the defaults. Otherwise, it has been changed already somewhere. — Fran, Sep 13 '17 at 12:25
@Fran Thanks for your comment but it's not nested itemize list. — Amir, Sep 14 '17 at 05:12

You can specify the used symbols for itemize using the following:

\renewcommand{\labelitemi}{$\bullet$}
\renewcommand{\labelitemii}{$\circ$}
\renewcommand{\labelitemiii}{$\cdot$}
\renewcommand{\labelitemiv}{$\ast$}
