The lyrics of the song "The Red Star Shines on Me" are as follows:
The small bamboo raft swims in the river
The lofty green mountains walk on both sides
The eagle spreads its wings and flies even if the wind and rain are sudden
The revolution's heavy burden is carried on the shoulders
The Party's teachings are on the mind
The Party's teachings are on the mind
The Party's teachings are in my heart
The little bamboo raft swims in the river
The river flows eastward
The red star shines brightly to guide me in the battle
Revolutionary generations are like a tidal wave
Forward and backward, we will follow the Party
Forward and backward, we will follow the Party
To smash the old world
We will put on the beautiful scenery and the beautiful mountains.
Smash the old world
Miles and miles of rivers and mountains are covered with embroidery
Miles and miles of rivers and mountains are covered with embroidery
Tiny bamboo rafts swim in the river
Walking on both sides of the mighty green mountains
The eagle spreads its wings to fly even in the face of the wind and the rain
Revolutionary burdens are on our shoulders
Party's teaching is in our hearts
The Party's teachings are in our hearts.
The Party's teachings in my heart
The little bamboo raft swims in the river
The river flows eastward
The red star shines brightly to guide me in the battle
Revolutionary generations are like a tidal wave
Forward and backward, we will follow the Party
Forward and backward, we will follow the Party
To smash the old world
We will cover all the mountains and rivers in beautiful colors.
Smashing the old world
Many miles of rivers and mountains are covered in beautiful scenery
Many miles of rivers and mountains are covered in beautiful scenery
