Damodar Das Arora (Punjabi: ਦਮੋਦਰ ਦਾਸ ਅਰੋੜਾ, دمودر داس اروڑا) was a famous Punjabi poet, belonging to the Jhang District. He is famous for his poetic narration of the tale of Heer Ranjha, which is titled Heer Damodar. This was the first Punjabi language poem about this famous love-legend. He was a contemporary of Heer and Ranjha, and had watched the incident unfold, as he says at one point in his poem:
- Akh Damodar Akheen Dittha Howan Laggi Larai.
- آکھ دمودر اکھیں ڈٹھا ھوون لگی لڑائ
- ਆਖ ਦਮੋਦਰ ਆਖੀਂ ਢਠਾ ਹੋਵਞ ਲਗੱੀ ਲਝਾਈ
