汉语歌（包括当代流行歌曲）按汉语古诗的规则,整首歌的押韵是一致的,(不过港台流行歌曲句句押韵、过度押韵的写法并不正规，听起来也很枯燥)
英语歌（包括当代流行歌曲）按英国诗歌的写法,每小节内部是押韵一致的,换一个小节就换一个押韵
电视剧《三国演义》主题歌 词:杨慎(明朝)
滚滚长江东逝水，浪花淘尽英雄。是非成败转头空，青山依旧在，几度夕阳红。
白发渔樵江渚上，惯看秋月春风。一杯浊酒喜相逢，古今多少事，都付笑谈中。
《God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen》
God rest ye merry, gentlemen, let nothing you dismay,
Remember Christ our Savior was born on Christmas Day;
To save us all from Satan's power when we were gone astray.
In Bethlehem, in Israel, this blessèd Babe was born,
And laid within a manger upon this blessèd morn;
The which His mother Mary did nothing take in scorn.
From God our heavenly Father a blessèd angel came;
And unto certain shepherds brought tidings of the same;
How that in Bethlehem was born the Son of God by name.
