The inspiring text comes from Mao Zedong's "Qinyuanchun·Changsha".
"Qinyuanchun·Changsha" is a poem written by the modern poet Mao Zedong. Through the description of the autumn scenery of Changsha and the memories of the revolutionary struggle life in his youth, this poem expresses the revolutionary youth's emotion about the fate of the country and their heroic ambition to take the world as their own responsibility, despise the reactionary rulers, and transform the old China. The whole word is between the phrases, blending emotions and situations.
Qinyuan Spring·Changsha
In the cold autumn of Independence, the Xiangjiang River goes north to the head of Orange Island. See the mountains all red, the forests all dyed; the rivers full of green, with hundreds of boats competing in the current. Eagles strike in the sky, fish fly in the shallows, and all kinds of frost compete for freedom in the sky. With a melancholy outline, I asked the vast land, who is responsible for the ups and downs?
I brought hundreds of couples on a trip. Reminiscing about the glorious past. Qia's classmate is a young boy who is in his prime; he is a scholarly student and scolds Fang Qiu. Pointing out the country and inspiring words, the excrement of thousands of households. Have you ever remembered that when you hit the water in the middle of the current, the waves stopped the flying boat?
Vernacular translation:
On a crisp day in late autumn, I stood alone at the head of Orange Island, looking at the clear water of the Xiangjiang River flowing slowly northward. Look at the thousands of mountain peaks all turning red, the layers of forest seem to be dyed with color, the river is clear and blue, and the big ships are riding the wind and waves, vying to be the first. Eagles fly in the vast sky, fish swim in the clear water, and everything is vying to live a free life in the autumn light. Facing the boundless universe, (thousands of thoughts came to my mind at the same time) I want to ask: Who will decide and dominate the rise and fall of this vast earth?
Looking back on the past, my classmates and I often came here to play together. Those countless extraordinary years spent discussing national affairs together still linger in my heart. The students are in their youth and in their prime; they are full of ambition, unrestrained and powerful. Commenting on national affairs and writing these articles that stirred up the turmoil and promoted the Qing Dynasty, the warlords and bureaucrats at that time were treated like dirt. Remember? At that time, we were swimming in a deep and fast river, and the waves almost blocked the speeding boat?
Creative background:
"Qinyuan Chun·Changsha" was written by Mao Zedong in the late autumn of 1925, when he left his hometown of Shaoshan and went to Guangzhou to host a peasant movement workshop. He passed through Changsha and revisited Made during the Orange Island period. At that time, facing the beautiful and moving natural autumn scenery on the Xiangjiang River, the author recalled the revolutionary situation at that time and wrote this poem.
