伟人颂

Ode to the Great Man

乱世沉浮恸神州，

八方烽火灼金瓯。

In chaotic times our sacred land did groan;

From all sides war flames scorched our vessels of stone.

山河破碎哀民瘼，

列强肆虐伤国仇。

Broken hills and streams witnessed people’s distress;

Foreign invaders tramped on us with fierceness.

湘水韶山出俊彦，

雄才大略解殷忧。

A hero from the Hills by River Xiang,

With lofty ideals, eased our deep worrying.

秋收义举燃星火，

井冈雄师战未休。

The Autumn Uprising lit a sparking fire;

At Jinggang Mountains fought the brave never tired.

万里长征惊寰宇，

延安帷幄定鸿猷。

The Long March amazed the world with miracles;

In Yan’an headquarters were made good articles.

驱倭八载坚贞志，

荡蒋三年浩气留。

Eight years spent to drive all the Japanese out;

Three more to crush the reactionaries about.

伟业丰功昭日月，

名垂青史颂千秋。

Great deeds like sun and moon will ever shine bright,

And your good name will endure in histories’ light.
