The cover of T. S. Eliot's Prufrock and Other Observations, published in 1917, a collection of twelve poems including "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock" referenced in the title.

Eliot called the poem a "love song" in reference to Rudyard Kipling's poem "The Love Song of Har Dyal", first published in Kipling's collection Plain Tales from the Hills (1888).

In the classical music tradition, this type of setting may be referred to as an art song. A poem set to music in the German language is called a lied, or in the French language, a Mélodie.

The title Four Quartets connects to music, which appears also in Eliot's poems "Preludes", "Rhapsody on a Windy Night", and "A Song for Simeon" along with a 1942 lecture called "The Music of Poetry". Some critics have suggested that there were various classical works that Eliot focused on while writing the pieces. [ 16 ]

Others are about earthly love (ishq-e-majazi), but many can be interpreted in either context.
