1. Lyrics:
From the grassland to Tiananmen Square
Lift up the golden cup and sing praises
Thank you to the great party
Bless the President for his long life
Heroic motherland stands in the east
Like the rising sun with all its radiance
Brothers from all nationalities gather together
To celebrate our turning over and liberation
The second draft (1984.8)
This is the second draft of the song. Celebrating Our Liberation
The Second Draft (1984.8)
From the Grassland to Tiananmen Square
Singing from the Golden Cup
Thanks to the Great Party
Celebrating Our Liberation
The Heroic Motherland Stands in the East
Raying Like the Rising Sun
Brotherhood of the Ethnic Groups Gather Together Brothers of all nationalities gather together
Praise for the rise and prosperity of China
2. The Song of Praise was composed by Hu Songhua in 1964, who was commissioned by Premier Zhou and the Grand Song and Dance Commanding Department of the Oriental Red and composed the lyrics and arrangement overnight. This "Hymn" is one of the works of the large-scale dance epic "The East is Red", and also one of Hu Songhua's masterpieces. Music is the original first half of the four "wordless new long tune" and the latter part of the "multiple short folk songs" between the new "marriage combination" of the singing.
