Sindhi folklore (Sindhi: لوڪ ادب) is a rich cultural tradition that has evolved in Sindh over centuries. The region is abundant in folklore, expressed in diverse forms and vibrant colors, ranging from the well-known tales of Watayo Faqir and the legend of Moriro to the epic poetry of Dodo Chanesar and the heroic story of Umar Marvi. Sindhi folklore stands out among the region's traditions, particularly with the love story of Sassui, who longs for her lover Punhu, a tale sung and cherished in every Sindhi house. Other notable stories include the legend of Umar Marui and the tale of Suhuni Mehar (known as Sohni Mahiwal in Punjab).[1]

Sindhi folk singers and women play a crucial role in preserving and transmitting these folktales. They passionately sing the stories of Sindh in every village, keeping the folklore alive through their music.
