Modern Mao Zedong
Original text:
The sky is high and the clouds are pale, and you can see the geese flying south. If you don't get to the Great Wall, you are not a true man. It only takes 20,000 yuan to travel. At the peak of Liupan Mountain, red flags swirl in the west wind. Today I have a long tassel in my hand, when will I bind the blue dragon?
Translation:
The sky is high and the white clouds are clear, and the geese flying south can already see the horizon. If you don't climb the Great Wall pass, you are definitely not a hero. In total, 20,000 people have fought.
The majestic peaks of Liupan Mountain rise again, and the fierce west wind rolls the red flag. Today I hold the long rope tightly in my arms. When will I tie up the Jiang family's mad dragon?
This poem reviews the journey of the Long March and expresses the iron will of the Red Army soldiers to move forward bravely and their firm belief that they will win the war of resistance. This is a victory song for advancing in battle, an inspiring and inspiring declaration.
"The sky is high and the clouds are light, and you can see the wild geese flying south", he writes about the vastness of the world, and writes about what he can see when he stands on the peak of Liupan Mountain. The two sentences closely relate to the October sky scene: the sky is clear, the clouds are sparse, and the wild geese are flying south.
The word "wangjuan" is rich in meaning and has a particularly profound meaning. "Looking away" means looking forward again and again, until you no longer see it, then look again. Because in autumn, wild geese have to travel from north to south and spend the winter in the south. Seeing the wild geese heading south will naturally arouse the author and the Red Army's infinite longing for the revolutionary base soldiers and civilians in the south and the folks in their hometown, so they are hopeful.
Although these two sentences describe scenery, they contain feelings. The next two sentences, "You are not a true man until you have reached the Great Wall, you can only travel 20,000 miles" are very proud of the lyricism. The author calculated on his fingers that the Red Army had already traveled 20,000 miles and there were no steep mountains ahead, so it would definitely reach its intended destination.
"He who has not been to the Great Wall is not a hero" also expresses the strong will and determination of the Chinese Communist Party and the Red Army to go north to the anti-Japanese front line. Only those who go north to fight against Japan are truly good men.
The structure of the lower sentence is the same as that of the upper sentence. The first two sentences describe the scene and the last two sentences express emotions. "The peak of Liupan Mountain" points out the meaning of Liupan Mountain and tells readers that the author was on the top of Liupan Mountain at that time. The peak is a large background described by the author. The scenery in front of this background is very special: "The red flag rolls in the west wind."
The red flag of the Red Army rolls in the west wind. This special scene symbolizes victory. The heroic spirit of the Red Army soldiers can be reflected in the picture, which is the emotion in the scene.
"Today I have a long tassel in my hand, when will I tie the blue dragon" is directly lyrical. It means that the Long March has been victorious, the initiative of the revolution has been in the hands of the Communist Party of China, and it is only a matter of time before it can "bind the blue dragon". The author is full of confidence in victory.
