Nagorao Ghanashyam Deshpande (Devanagari: नागोराव घनश्याम देशपांडे) (1909–2000) was a Marathi poet from Maharashtra, India.
He was born on 21 August 1909 in the town of Shendurjan in Buldhana District of Maharashtra.[1] He died on 10 May 2000.
He lived most of his life in the town of Mehkar, also in Buldhana District. Because of his premature birth, he suffered considerable sickness through much of his life of 91 years. His brother (V G Deshpande) and cousin (Sumati Suklikar) were politicians with Bharatiya Jana Sangh. Poet Deshpande's poems have been set to music, mainly by singer-composer G N Joshi.

The following are the titles of the five collections of his poems:
