"Les Chansons de Bilitis" (The Songs of Bilitis) is a collection of erotic poetry by the French writer Pierre Louÿs. First published in 1894, the work purports to be the translations of ancient Greek poetry by a woman named Bilitis, a contemporary and acquaintance of the famous poetess Sappho. However, this literary conceit is part of the fiction, as Bilitis herself is a fictional creation of Louÿs, and the poems are in fact original works by the author.

The collection is divided into three sections, each representing a different phase of Bilitis's life: her youth and sexual awakening in Pamphylia, her experiences as a courtesan in Cyprus, and her later life as a recluse in Lebanon. The poems are written in a lyrical and sensuous style, celebrating female sexuality and same-sex love, themes that were controversial at the time of publication.

Louÿs's work is notable for its rich imagery and evocative language, as well as its exploration of lesbian themes. "Les Chansons de Bilitis" is considered an important work in Symbolist literature and has been influential in the development of lesbian literature. The book also gained notoriety for its supposed authenticity as an ancient text, with Louÿs providing elaborate footnotes and commentary to bolster the illusion.

The collection has been admired for its literary qualities and has been the subject of various adaptations, including musical settings by composer Claude Debussy, who was inspired by the poems to compose his "Chansons de Bilitis" for voice and piano. Despite its fictional origins, "Les Chansons de Bilitis" remains a significant work in the canon of French literature and continues to be studied and appreciated for its artistic merit and its groundbreaking portrayal of female eroticism and homoerotic desire.
