Translation
- China will not die, China will not die,
- Look at our national hero Lieutenant Colonel Xie.
- China will not die, China will not die,
- Watch the eight hundred heroes of the lone battalion fight for every inch of land,
- From four sides come the gunfire, from the four sides come the wolves,
- They would rather die than retreat, they would rather die than surrender.
- Amidst the sea of chaos our nations's flag flies proudly, flies proudly, flies proudly, flies proudly.
- Eight hundred heroic hearts all beat as one, unstoppable to the thousands of enemies,
- Our actions are mighty, our integrity heroic
- Comrades, arise! Comrades, arise!
- Let's answer the call to arms, and follow the example of the eight hundred heroes
- China will not die, China will not die!
- Will not die! Will not die! Will not die!

Famous quotes containing the word translation:
“Whilst Marx turned the Hegelian dialectic outwards, making it an instrument with which he could interpret the facts of history and so arrive at an objective science which insists on the translation of theory into action, Kierkegaard, on the other hand, turned the same instruments inwards, for the examination of his own soul or psychology, arriving at a subjective philosophy which involved him in the deepest pessimism and despair of action.”
—Sir Herbert Read (1893–1968)
“...it is better to marry than to be aflame with passion.”
—Bible: New Testament, 1 Corinthians 7:9.
King James translation reads, “It is better to marry than to burn.”
“Translation is the paradigm, the exemplar of all writing.... It is translation that demonstrates most vividly the yearning for transformation that underlies every act involving speech, that supremely human gift.”
—Harry Mathews (b. 1930)
