Hyakunin Isshū is an anthology of 100 waka poems by 100 different poets; it was assembled by Fujiwara no Teika (1162–1241; also known as Sadaie Fujiwara).

The titles are the names of each poet, followed by the Japanese poem in rōmaji transliteration, then the English translation. The poems include a variety of classics from the Heian and early Kamakura periods.
