If you think any part of Robert Frost’s poem can exist in a vacuum, isolated from the whole, you’re a philistine.

Simon & Garfunkel - "Richard Cory"

I always liked this song when I was young. It's Melanie Safka's "Alexander Beetle", singing the poem by A.A. Milne (of Winnie-the-Pooh fame). I like how she also sings the beetle's reactions.
"So Nan and Me are friends, because it's difficult to catch
An excited Alexander you've mistaken for a […]
Rules were made for breaking so
Not strictly a poem but an inspiring manifesto which I think is pure poetry.
For everyone, everything.
Manu Chao - EZLN - Para todos, todo.

This may be Pablo Neruda's most famous poem, with music from Brazilian Girls

This Icelandic band makes songs out of medieval poems, and it's glorious. This one is titled "Kind Moon"
Kind moon, you glide across the sky,
sweetly at the silver lining.
As the will of the almighty offers,
according to your steady path.
Lend all the tired ones your light,
tiptoe in every […]

Frank Turner is another of my favourite artists with a wonderful turn of phrase.
Even the intro to this song:
"this is spposed to be about snapshots and not about oil paintings - remember the moment, be proud that you were ******* there and then move on and […]

Frank Turner - Poetry of the Deed
Me and all my friends are poets of the deed.
We're exactly what this country needs.
We scratch until we're drunk, we drink until we bleed.
We are what we believe.
Pentameter in attack, iambic pulse in the veins,
Free verse […]

Another outfit with wonderfully poetic lyrics.
The Levellers - What A Beautiful Day
In there on the big screen, every night I've seen
The way all things could be
For me, for me, for me, for me
The news broke after midnight,
That we pulled the temples down […]

Another Iron Maiden poetry-inspired song:
Iron Maiden - The Trooper
You'll take my life, but I'll take yours too
You'll fire your musket, but I'll run you through
So when you're waiting for the next attack
You'd better stand, there's no turning back
The […]

For me, Per Gessle's intricate lyrics were a key part of Roxette's appeal.
Roxette - Fading Like A Flower
In a time
Where the sun descends alone
I ran a long, long way from home
To find a heart that's made of stone
I will try
I just need a little time
To get […]

Another Springsteen epic poem.
Bruce Springsteen - Born to Run
In the day we sweat it out on the streets of a runaway American dream
At night we ride through mansions of glory in suicide machines
Sprung from cages on Highway 9
Chrome-wheeled, fuel-injected […]
A song by Finnish band Poets of the Fall, but attributed to fictional band Old Gods of Asgard from the video game Alan Wake, this is a song about a poet named Thomas Zane who uses his poetry and the power of the game’s setting to bring his drowned partner Barbara Jagger back to life. As in many […]

Another master of epic poetic lyrics - Jim Steinman

You want to shut out the night, you want to shut down the sun
You want to […]

Frank Turner - I Still Believe
And I still believe (I still believe) in the need
For guitars and drums and desperate poetry
And I still believe (I still believe) that everyone
Can find a song for every time they've lost
And every time they've won
So just […]

When it comes to poetry set to music, it's hard to top Springsteen.
Bruce Springsteen - Thunder Road
The screen door slams, Mary's dress sways
Like a vision she dances across the porch as the radio plays
Roy Orbison's singing for the lonely
Hey, that's me […]

It was not until comparatively recently that I realised that this song open with the words of a hymn by G.K. Chesterton!
Iron Maiden - Revelations
Oh, God of Earth and Altar
Bow down and hear our cry
Our earthly rulers falter
Our people drift and die

Between Sour and Guts, Olivia Rodrigo attended a poetry class to improve her songwriting. She wrote the poem for it that became Lacy once it was set to music.
(The backing vocals on this song are by Chappell Roan, who was in the studio at the same time.)

An ode is defined as a poem that expresses deep feelings about a person or other subject. In that vein, this is the Cranberries with Ode to My Family.
