You can use foreignobject for more control and placing rich HTML content over rect or circle   x000D   x000D       lt svg width  250  height  250  xmlns  http   www w3 org 2000 svg  gt  x000D           lt rect x  0  y  0  width  250  height  250  fill  aquamarine    gt  x000D           lt foreignobject x  0  y  0  width  250  height  250  gt  x000D               lt body xmlns  http   www w3 org 1999 xhtml  gt  x000D                   lt div gt Here is a long text that runs more than one line and works as a paragraph lt  div gt  x000D                   lt br   gt  x000D                   lt div gt This is  lt u gt UNDER LINE lt  u gt  one lt  div gt  x000D                   lt br   gt  x000D                   lt div gt This is  lt b gt BOLD lt  b gt  one lt  div gt  x000D                   lt br   gt  x000D                   lt div gt This is  lt i gt Italic lt  i gt  one lt  div gt  x000D               lt  body gt  x000D           lt  foreignobject gt  x000D       lt  svg gt  x000D   x000D   x000D

This is not possible   If you want to display text inside a rect element you should put them both in a group with the text element coming after the rect element   so it appears on top      x000D   x000D   lt svg xmlns  http   www w3 org 2000 svg  gt  x000D     lt g gt  x000D       lt rect x  0  y  0  width  100  height  100  fill  red  gt  lt  rect gt  x000D       lt text x  0  y  50  font-family  Verdana  font-size  35  fill  blue  gt Hello lt  text gt  x000D     lt  g gt  x000D   lt  svg gt  x000D   x000D   x000D
