As a literati, if we can serve this city, even if we leave a word, I think it will be the glory of our life. I used the oldest and most beautiful poetry theme of the Chinese nation and the teachings handed down by China sages for thousands of years to write the first "Declaration of Peace", the national public sacrifice for the victims of the Nanjing Massacre, in order to express China people's hatred of the war, their grief for the dead and their expectation for peace. As a poet, I am deeply honored.
I am an old man and have lived in Nanjing for most of my life. I started my career as a Chinese teacher, and later I became a literary writer and organizer. Nanjing is an ancient cultural capital with rich historical and cultural accumulation. This city has made us study all our lives, all of us are studying, and the whole world is studying.
If I could give a city one day in a year, I would say that 65438+February 65438+March belongs to Nanjing! We should hold high this day, with more than 300,000 lives. Because of the life of more than 300 thousand people, Nanjing has grown a tall and straight city tree and a chaste city flower! I still have a lot to say, but I can fully express it in one word, that is "love": love Nanjing, love China, love the world and love peace.

The majestic Jinling, the surging river, the rain in Zhongshan and the fragrance of the future. 1937, disaster fell from the sky, 12 13, the ancient city fell. The Japanese invaders plundered, burned and killed, and the bodies were everywhere, and the Yangtze River was dyed red with blood. More than 300 thousand, countless lives, six weeks of purgatory, lamenting the national mourning. The world is shocked, Kyushu is sad, and the fir trees are in full bloom. Eternal disaster, the death of civilization, a hundred years of lamentation, and the alarm bell is ringing.
Poor and weak, ashamed of mountains and rivers, domestic troubles and foreign invasion, the country is ruined. National awakening, independent liberation, reform and revitalization, and national prosperity. Never forget the past, the teacher of the future, how difficult it is to prosper the country. In 77 years, the context of history was clear, endless, and mountains and rivers flowed. 20 14, the national public sacrifice, Chinese and foreign people gathered in the square. White flowers mourn, solemn, Chen Dan writes, peace poems.
The trip to the avenue, the world is fair, morality is born, and harmony is auspicious. Peaceful development, theme of the times, national rejuvenation, dream of generations. There is a dragon and a tiger, and Yi Xun Ding Ming, a link between the past and the future, will never forget.
