According to one embodiment, a semiconductor light emitting device includes an n-type semiconductor layer, a p-type semiconductor layer and a light emitting part. The light emitting part is provided between the n-type semiconductor layer and the p-type semiconductor layer and includes a first light emitting layer. The first light emitting layer includes a first barrier layer, a first well layer, a first n-side intermediate layer and a first p-side intermediate layer. The barrier layer, the well layer, the n-side layer and the p-side intermediate layer include a nitride semiconductor. An In composition ratio in the n-side layer decreases along a first direction from the n-type layer toward the p-type layer. An In composition ratio in the p-side layer decreases along the first direction. An average change rate of the In ratio in the p-side layer is lower than an average change rate of the In ratio in the n-side layer. |
