新四军军歌
Song of the New Fourth Army
光荣北伐武昌城下，
In wuchang, a glorious city of the Northern Expedition,
血染着我们的姓名。
blood stains our names.
孤军奋斗罗霄山上，
Fight a lone battle on Luoxiao Mountains,
继承了先烈的殊勋。
inherited the martyr's honor.
千百次抗争，风雪饥寒；
Thousands of battles, suffer from cold and hunger.
千万里转战，穷山野营。
Thousands of kilometers marched, camping in the desolate mountains.
获得丰富的斗争经验，
Gaining a lot of experience in the war,
锻炼艰苦的牺牲精神。
exercise the spirit of hard sacrifice.
为了社会幸福，
For a happy society,
为了民族生存，
for the survival of the nation,
一贯坚持我们的斗争!
keep our struggle.
八省健儿汇成一道抗日的铁流！
Eight provinces' youths converge into the iron flood of against Japan!
