Lutpulla Mutellip (Uyghur: لۇتپۇللا مۇتەللىپ; November 22, 1922 – September 18, 1945), also known as Qaynam Orkishi, Lutun, or Li Mutalifu (Chinese:黎·穆塔里甫), was a Uyghur poet and journalist. He is considered one of the most important figures in modern Uyghur literature. Although he died young at the age of 22, he had a strong influence on modern Uyghur literature and especially on Uyghur poetry. His poems are reputed for the beauty of his language. "Response to Years" (Yillargha Jawap) is considered to be his poetic masterpiece and "Thoughtful Blessings" (Xiyalchan Tilek) is another one of his most famous works.
For his work and writing on Uyghur independence, he is remembered by some as a national hero for the Uyghur people.[1]
