Blood -stained Glory
Lyrics by: Wan Mingbo;Composed by: Wan Fengqing
Fierce fires rage all around mountains and rivers in sorrow drown
Heroes bravely step in their noble spirit reaches the sky profound
Enemy hooves trample the land danger looms close at hand
Men's hot blood surges high with wills as firm as steel they stand
Looking back eighty years winds and clouds fill the sphere
Smoky beacons block sun and moon our homeland in deep despair
Hooves shatter mountains and fields our people shed endless tears
By the white mountains and black waters Jingyu's flag proudly appears
Deep in the forest and snow the Anti -Japanese League's sword gleams
Amid ice and frost the warriors' bones are strong and seem
Heroes' anthems resound their voices shake the starry ground
Lives build the lofty monuments loyalty shines far and wide around
The Five Heroes on Langya leap shocking the vault on high
Their spirits shine through the ages a glorious name that will never die
Behind enemy lines smoke and fire spread a dark battlefield is made
Thunder roars from the ground with wit and might they slay the raid
Tunnels form a net mines hide their might
The heavenly net traps the foe sharp blades reflect the cold light
Women and children share the load united as one like steel
Every inch of land is soaked in blood the setting sun cries in the field
Green hills bury the loyal bones monuments stand in the sky
Heroes' anthems resound their voices shake the starry high
Lives build the lofty monuments loyalty shines far and wide
Nameless yet so grand their feats are engraved deep inside
Unyielding like fine steel their spirit will always prevail
After eighty years of frost and snow the land has a new tale
The heroes turn into stars brightly lighting up the sky
We stand at the tide's front our original heart we must not deny
The mission weighs on our shoulders we'll charge through fire to glory
To fulfill the Chinese dream we've been tempered to be so sturdy
Swords point to the sky in the prosperous age we'll write a new song
Heroes' anthems resound their voices shake the starry throng
Lives build the lofty monuments loyalty shines far and wide
Peace isn't a free gift blood has washed away the old pride
Carry on the legacy start a new journey on the sea
The anthem echoes through the world its melody will always be
Spring fills the land of China mountains and rivers bathe in dawn
Their spirit melts into our blood noble air fills the land all around
The road to revival is clear sharp edges are forged by the fire
The sleeping lion has awoken its roar shakes the four -way wire
Heroes may have passed away but their spirit will always stay
