Abstract: In the late stages of his life，Changyao keenly felt the“inner life”，a pure naked life between life and death，and created a unique expression—wailing chant. Changyao’s late wailing chants almost break through the meaning boundary of language. They are poetic creations at the sound level，and inject a compassionate tone of suffering into modern Chinese，making language a monument for carving and remembering life；they provide a linguistic salvation for the suffering of life. The late style of Changyao’s poems can be deeply analyzed from the perspective of writing mechanism，tone characteristics，and poetic significance. Such analysis can not only solve the riddles of language and form in Changyao’s late writing，deeply delve into the gain and loss of his creation，but also provide a useful reference for establishing a benchmark and standard of modern Chinese poetry.

Key words: Changyao, modern poetry, inner life, wailing chant, late style
