Meaning

poem, poetry, verse


  • 詩人しじん — poet
  • 詩集ししゅう — poetry collection
  • 詩歌しか — poems and songs
  • 漢詩かんし — Chinese-style poem
  • 詩情しじょう — poetic sentiment

詩 combines the 言 (speech) radical with the sound-related part 寺. It originally referred to structured, rhythmic expression of feelings — especially in verse form. The kanji represents how language and sound come together to express emotion.
