Chin Lien (Chinese: 錦連; December 6, 1928 – January 6, 2013), originally named Chen Chin-lien, was a Taiwanese poet and translator from Changhua County, Taiwan. He spent his entire career working for Taiwan Railways Administration, and the railway became a significant motif for his thoughts and poetry, earning him the name of "Railway Poet." He also received several awards during his lifetime, including the Rong-Hou Poet Award of Taiwan (榮後臺灣人詩獎), the Oxford Prize for Taiwanese Writers (臺灣文學家牛津獎), the Li Poetry Society Translation Award (笠詩社翻譯獎), and the Taiwan New Literature Special Achievement Award (臺灣新文學特別推崇獎, which would be later renamed as 台灣新文學貢獻獎).
