Aşıq Ümer (1621–1707) was a Crimean Tatar medieval poet of ashik and is one of the most famous representatives of the Turkic-speaking ashik poetry in general.

Ashik poetry (Crimean Tatar: aşıq; lit.

'the person in love') is a special kind of literary oeuvre, the representatives of which – folk poets-singers – accompany their performances with playing the string-plucked musical instrument bağlama.

He wrote mainly lyric poems (on mystical content and related to a soldier's theme) in the forms of Turkic folk poetry.

Aşıq Ümer is also an author of poems that are traditional for classical oriental poetry – ghazals, rubaʿi etcetera.
