Mririda n'Ait Attik (in Amazigh : Mririda n Ayt Atiq) (c. 1900 – c. 1940s) was a Berber Moroccan Shilha poet writing in Tashelhit.
Born in the village of Megdaz, in the Tassaout valley, Mririda married at a very early age, but soon fled her unhappy life at home to become an itinerant oral poet and performer.
[2] Mririda was the pen name she used on stage, and her real name is unknown.
Her poetry dealt with tabu topics at the time (particularly coming from a woman poet), such as divorce, love between women, household problems, and unrequited love.
[2] During the 1940s, she is said to have been a courtesan in the souk (marketplace) in Azilal, and was famed for the songs she sang to the men who visited her house.
