Song poetry inherited the Tang tradition while innovating, featuring great poets like Su Shi, Huang Tingjian, Lu You, and Yang Wanli, forming a unique Song poetry style known for its philosophical depth.
見說天文變,頻占太史臺。 但云星犯月,不料火爲災。 盡夜看煙滅,逢人問訊來。 丹心勤戀闕,東鄉極裴徊。
半載蓬萊地,相携只是詩。 心懷丹鳳去,夢與白鷗隨。 俯仰俱無愧,勤勞必有知。 歸舟平似掌,天亦念孤危。
