I stood on the iron cable bridge,
The bridge is rocking gently.
Clouds floating over Erlang Mountain,
White waves rolled at the foot of Dadu River.
The heroic Red Army,
It's hard to live here,
Hold high the red flag and face the fire.
Warriors,
Climb up the chain,
Braving the dense hail,
Broke through the enemy's barrage!
Ah!
The buildings that fought fiercely in those days,
Now it is a classroom for children;
The warrior spilled the blood donation place,
Pears are blooming all over the tree.
People are holding beautiful flowers,
Gently, gently sprinkled on this heroic land.
I stood on the iron cable bridge,
The tide is surging.
Clouds floating over Erlang Mountain,
White waves rolled at the foot of Dadu River.
Ah!
In this land of heroes,
I want to sing loudly!
