《咏河市歌者》是南宋诗人范成大创作的一首七言绝句。诗起句以问句形式，为下句作铺垫，次句自答，补足题目，写出歌者的心声。三、四句使用流水对，进一步阐述歌者的歌声中何以有不平的音符，从对音乐的感受转移到直接的描述，把歌者内心的惨痛与生活的艰难完全表现出来，也表明自己同情的立场。
《咏河市歌者》 范成大
岂是从容唱《渭城》，个中当有不平鸣。
可怜日晏忍饥面，强作春深求友声。
A Singer at the Riverside Market
Fan Chengda
How can this be called singing "Song of Weicheng" with ease?
There is in it a note crying against injustice.
A pitiful sight – the day is waning and hunger showing in his face,
Yet he is forcing out a voice in imitation of an oriole's warbling!
