The People's Liberation Army Captures Nanjing
Over Zhongshan swept a storm, headlong,
Our mighty army, a million strong, has crossed the Great River.
The City, a tiger crouching, a dragon curling, outshines its ancient glories;
In heroic triumph heaven and earth have been overturned.
With power and to spare we must pursue the tottering foe
And not ape Xiang Yu the conqueror seeking idle fame.
Were Nature sentient, she too would pass from youth to age,
But man's world is mutable, sea become mulberry fields.
Spring At Zhongshan Mountains, Nanjing
Sung by Chou Xuan
Old Shanghai
