In 2009, this song was selected as one of the 100 patriotic songs recommended by Publicity Department of the Communist Party of China and the Central Civilization Office. Based on interviews with Red Guards in the base area, representatives of workers' and peasants' associations and veterans of the Red Army, Zhang quickly wrote the lyrics. After writing the lyrics, Zhang went straight to Zhu Benben's room and asked him to compose music. Zhu Benben was very moved when he saw the lyrics, and the melody of the folk song "Long Songs" that he got when he was collecting songs in Jiangxi flashed in his mind.
Then in less than an hour, he finished composing music. Because he was too devoted, he once shed tears when hundreds of thousands of people were crying at the station on the bank of the river. Lyrics are based on narration, which expresses the deep feelings of the people in the revolutionary base areas for the Red Army and their strong expectations for the success of the revolution.
lyrics
As soon as I saw Riggs Red Army go down the mountain.
The autumn rain is continuous and the autumn wind is cold.
The leaves of Platanus Riggs have fallen out.
Sadness weighs on my heart.
Ask your relatives, the Red Army.
When will Rima Jiezhi return to the mountain?
Seven drilling rigs, Red Army support Wudou Mountain.
On the river, Rigo, the son of the ship, asked for a shuttle.
Thousands of troops and horses support a station by the river.
One hundred thousand people were in tears.
Love is like the sea. You can't forget the Red Army.
The revolution was successful, so we can return home early.
Nine put the Red Army on the road.
Gong doesn't ring, drum doesn't play, drum doesn't play.
Both Riggs are holding hands with long cocoons.
My heart is like Riggs Huanglian, smiling.
How can you forget the Red Army with flesh and blood?
I hope Rigg will introduce a good news as soon as possible.
Ten times, the Red Army rig was sent to support a moon pavilion.
On the moon-watching pavilion, there is a high platform.
Taigaolige Zhang Shibai Yuzhu
Carve dragons and paint phoenixes, shining brightly.
I look forward to the evening and miss the Red Army.
This device is called Jiezhi Red Observatory.
