Chiu Thiam-ōng (Mandarin: 周添旺, January 25, 1911 – 1988) was a Taiwanese pop music lyricist during the Japanese rule period, born in Monga Bopiliao (present-day Wanhua), Taipei City, and registered on December 25, 1910 on the lunar calendar.

In 1933, he joined Columbia Records and won the public's attention with the lyrics of 'Moonlight Sorrow' (Mandarin: 月夜愁).

[4] 'Moonlight Sorrow' was published in 1933, with lyrics by Chiu Thiam-ōng and music by Teng Yu-hsien, who was 24 years old at the time.

Moonlight Sorrow' is a 17-bar song that uses three Fa's that are not in the pentatonic scale,[5] and the lyrics talk about the emotions of missing one's lover.

The words "rain," "night," and "flower" described in the lyrics later became important thematic images in Taiwanese ballads.
