千里来寻故地,
旧貌变新颜。
到处莺歌燕舞,
更有潺潺流水,
高路入云端。 - From: May 1965, 毛澤東 (Mao Zedong),《水調歌頭·重上井岡山》(Tune: Prelude to the Melody of Water—Jinggang Mountains Reascended)
- Qiānlǐ lái xún gùdì,
Jiùmào biàn xīnyán.
Dàochù yīnggēyànwǔ,
Gèng yǒu chánchán liúshuǐ,
Gāo lù rù yúnduān. - A long trip brings me to my old familiar nook,
Where everything has taken on a new look.
Here orioles sing, there swallows swirl,
O’er there streams purl,
And cloud-capped roads lead to the sky.
