Sayyida Makhfi-Badakhshi (fa|سیده مخفی بدخشی; 1876–1963); was a poet from Afghanistan. Her first publication was in 1992 by a monthly magazine. In the 1990s, her first collection of poetry was published in Faizabad, Afghanistan. Only a few of her works have been translated into English. Sayyida was famous for her ghazals.[1]
Sayyida Makhfi-Badakhshi was educated privately until she moved from Kholm to Badakhshan. She had two brothers, Mir Muhammad Ghamgin and Mir Suhrab Shah Sawda, who were also poets.[2] In 1951, she made an impression on contemporary poet Khalilullah Khalili.[3]
