The research of lyrics is a very vivid and meaningful topic. It requires the sensitive points of academic researchers. Researchers write a thesis in different angles. Many music historians'or experts'study to the sociology of music research is very solid material. For example, Zhuang Junhua begins to study lyrics in the arts very early; Miao Jing explained the lyrics'art features carefully, breaking the idea that lyrics belong to poetry; Lu Zhenglan attempts to create the subject of modern lyrics'research, etc. The writer would like to study the development of Chinese popular music, see the poetic lyrics of the experimental development of the Chinese modern poetry's revelation based on the previous research.The thesis is a comprehensive system and based on Lyrics' text. This article is divided into three parts besides the introduction and conclusion. The introduction summarizes the research status of poetic lyrics and defines the "poetic lyrics" on the basis of the previous research:a poetic lyric with unique aesthetic characteristics and structure is an artistic expression. It is conmbined with the narrative and the art of lyricism to create a genre. A poetic lyric has the creator of a free way of accumulated experience, with songs which can enchant the public power; poetic lyrics with a unique narrative features, words per line in the "adventure", the formation of emotional outpouring of events, the narrative of events; a poetic lyric is poet write the lyrics with their own voice, along the words that the original sense of rhythm created in, with subtle details and the overall coordination, with pure raw power, not just touching on the auditory and visual read; a poetic lyric is an intuition of words, and the works of the songwriter shows his personal characteristics significantly, though the songwriter created their own language, but can not indulge and satisfy, they need to fight against their own style; a poetic lyric is a unique artistic way to express the inner feelings.Poetic lyrics'birth both complements and develops the form of poetry.The first chapter reviews the historical links between lyrics and poetry to explore the variation of poetic lyrics'style. A variety of poetic form, in the early stages of production can be accompanied by music concerts, which are free and flexible as modern lyrics. A new verse was given birth when the last one went away from music, moreover, it contribute to this verse to be mature and rigid, then they become pure literature. This is a contradictory law that music and literature check and promote each other. The theory of ancient poetry said," Poetry is the lyrics". There is a phenomenon in Tang Dynasty, it was said "Lyrics is musical poetry, non-music lyrics is called poetry", that is the difference between the sung poetry and recited poetry. Look through the relationship between the poetry and music, you will find that sung lyrics is poetry, recited poetry is modern poetry, in fact. When the Tang poetry's style becomes mature, a new style of music will do its function to promote a new generation of poetry, such as Song poetry's birth, the same is true of the generation of Yuan Dynasty. By the same way, modern lyrics grow up to a new type of lyric which can be both read and sung from the ancient songs, sung poems and recited poems. Since poetry is inseparable from the development of the evolution of lyrics'style, then the poetry's direction of development is probably the new style of lyrics that beyond the traditional literary-poetic lyrics.The second chapter reviews the process of development and change of poetic lyrics. Throughout the history of Chinese poetry, you will find:as a kind of lyric, poetic lyrics is equally important to ancient poetry, which is necessary to study. Lyrics are included in the scope of musical literature, not as important as the status of poetry in literary history, but poems and lyrics were given birth to the same family, so we should sort out the process of poetic lyrics to expand the creation and research of poetry. The writer intends to describe the development and the basic picture of the 20th century's poetic lyrics and this chapter begins with Poetry Revolution. It is divided into two, one is from poetry dubs in background music to the lyrics separate, and the other one is from the chorus of the modern ballad to the "Monologue Style" and the "Confession Style". Then analyzes the characteristic of the contemporary folk, rock and independent music, especially Monologue Style (including experimental folk and rock poetry), and Confession Style (mainly indie pop, including City folk and Petty folk) in poetic lyrics. A large number of poetic lyrics emerge in these styles of lyric, and the text of these lyrics has a high literary value.The third chapter discusses the characteristics of narrative poetry of the lyrics. We reflect on the narrative poetic lyrics, not only that we ignore the lyrics poetic narrative, also the unique nature of narrative poetic lyrics. The thesis starts from the text of the lyrics, the rhythm of the lyrics, language, syntax and structure of the lyrics, to do a more detailed analysis. Then analyzes several cases described, including Zuo Xiao Zuzhou, Lin Xi, and Fang Wenshan.The birth of Chinese modern poetry originated in the lyrics, which is similar to the ancient poetry's, the modern lyrics paved the way for the development of new poetry. Poetry in dancing seems so messy and clumsy in the era of rapid development of new media. On the contrary, the trend of the lyrics' development is very well. The writer thinks that it is worth learning from the mode of the transmission of songs and the means of the lyrics'communication. If the poet and the poet draw together to prove each other's bright spot, the poetic lyrics will become an important part of the poetry history soon. In this thesis, the writer intends to sort out and probe poetic lyrics'development and narrative features to relief the regret as well as to absorb more attentions and care from the academics. Deeper investigation in poetic lyrics will be helpful for perfecting the research system of Modern and Contemporary Chinese Literature.
