粵語詩 

Here are some poems written in Cantonese (some of the characters are therefore phonetic, borrowing the sound from words with a different meaning).  The first poem is probably well-known, but as yet unattributed.  This oversight will be remedied when research reveals the authorship.

半路捶皇帝,如何膽咁真?只因吾好漢,不怕你強秦:

幾十多斤鐵,孤單一個人,攔腰搬過去,錯眼打唔親。

野仔真行運,衰君白替身,險些都變鬼,快的去還神。

兇手當堂趯,差頭到處巡。阿良真正笨,為咁散清銀。

 

胡漢民讀漢書粵語七律詩

韓信

剛剛遇着後生哥,淡定低頭扮啊傻;冇面行埋劏狗佬,有錢還過洗衫婆。

帶兵試把前胸拍,睇相唔慌後枕摸,皇帝捉來皇后害,他人不怪怪蕭何。

項羽

一扳高大幾威風,唱起歌嚟眼就紅,點解天公唔保佑,誰知妾侍亦英雄。

專孖皇帝爭頭喏,氣到軍師出背癰,得咁多人為你死,因何冇面見江東?

劉邦

江山呢陣亂啦啦,地保居然做惡爺;醒水就孖人趯路,有錢能使鬼推車。

老婆拿手來劏狗,皇帝開頭靠斬蛇。臨死搵返條笨伯,算渠後代有揸拿。

張良

話佢姑娘太不通,原來扭計最精工:報仇鬼咁唔爭氣,救駕神興詐出恭。

五代留返孤獨仔,幾回遇着伯爺公。既然想食無憂米,做乜當時重受封?

蕭何

皇帝交情佢最先,大家都戴狗毛氈;周身本事來看屋,一味裝傻去買田。

呢陣坐返頭號椅,嗰時多出兩蚊錢。相爺老到鬍鬚白,擠入監房太可憐。

陳平

不騮靚仔有功夫,唔止張良似阿姑;正話撑船打赤肋,又來竇貨做紅鬚;

左丞相要先輪我,番鬼婆都信咗渠。扭計固然太陰毒,要其絕種亦何辜。
