Poem "Young City"
I have been to many places, but this city is the youngest
It is so beautiful that it makes people fall in love at first sight
p>
It is neither a mirage nor a fairyland in Penglai
Every plant and tree in it is made of blood and sweat
You say it is a city, but it has pastoral scenery
p>
You say it is a countryside, but there are many factories
In the lush woods, there are rows of factories
Amidst the noise of birds, there is the sound of motors The sound of the sound
The air is so fresh, I can smell the fragrance of the countryside
The breeze blows gently, setting off green waves
It is like a pioneer, with all the energy flowing all over the body. Bathed in the sun
Facing the thousands of miles of Gobi Desert, eyes shining with hope
More like a warrior, with revolutionary enthusiasm surging
As long as you give an order, you will march to Fighting and rushing forward
Construction sites are everywhere, and the sound of labor is boiling
My heart is rolling along with the trolley on the gravel road
On sunny days, snowy days, at dawn and at dusk
Three hundred and sixty days a year, watch it 36,000 times
Because it is always moving forward, every moment Changing appearance
Because through this city, I saw the growth of New China
