Watriquet de Couvin was a fourteenth century French poet active between 1319 and 1329, and one of the few named authors of medieval French fabliaux.[1][2][3] Among his other poems, he is known for his moralistic "dits".

Watriquet de Couvin was a contemporary of the minstrels Jean de Condé and Jacques de Baisieux. His writings recommended submission to the Church, protection of the poor, and respect for women.
