"Adon HaSelikhot" () is an anonymous Hebrew Jewish piyyut (liturgical poem), recited in many Sefardi and Mizrahi Jewish communities during the Selichot service of Ten Days of Repentance between Rosh HaShanah and Yom Kippur.
Poetic structure Every second word of each verse form an alphabetic acrostic (אֲדוֹן הַסְּלִיחוֹת בּוֹחֵן לְבָבוֹת...). After each verse, a refrain "We have sinned before you, have mercy on us" (חָטָאנוּ לְפָנֶיךָ רַחֵם עָלֵינוּ) is recited.
