Thami Lamdaghri or Mdaghri (died 1856) is a well known Moroccan writer and composer of malhun songs. He is known for songs like Al-Gnawi and Aliq Al-Masrūh. More recently, in 2007, Nass El Ghiwane recorded a song by Lamdaghri called Ennehla Chama, which is about a conversation between a sultan and the queen of the bees. Another well known song by Lamdaghri is Al-Arsa (sung by Abdelkrim Guennoun), about the beauties of a garden.
