- 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!
