The women's world in "The Book of Poetry -Lyrics" is a constantly changing women-living scene presented in different perspectives.Women's lives at the time of "The Book of Songs" were rich and colorful, in which the women either sang heartily and highly or hummed in a low voice at the corner confined to the culture.As cultural symbols of "The Book of Songs" have not been completely decoded yet, there are still some controversial problems, difficult to arrive at a common viewpoint. And the true scene of the world is still being decoded and interpreted. The article employs the relative theories of narration, and tries to select and interpret it by presenting events, love-affairs from women's views, hoping to probe into a true women world at the time of "The Book of Songs", which is explained in the first three parts of the article, which consists of four parts.The first part, from a view point of social culturology, reveals a women's "natural world" by interpreting some symbols in the Book and by the roles they played in the society and by the social cultural values, pointing out that women's lives mainly consist sexual love between men and women, marriage and labor.The second part analyses women's the social roles in realizing ties of blood by giving birth and the capability of doing housework. Women obtained attention and appreciation from man-centered society by beauty of body and makings and by beauty of clothing and make-up.The third part expounds women's "feeling world". Women's Experience of Absence is their most truthful feeling world. Women's feeling world also includes the worrying of their being unable to control their fate and the undispelled feeling worrying.The fourth and last part analyses the way a women's world presented in "Lyrics", considering women's personal experience and recounting meditating as the most effective way of recognizing their world, a nearly true women world in the later readers' eyes.
