In an instant, pebbly raindrops hit the whole universe.
The cry of the universe shakes people's heartstrings;
Thick raindrops are still feeling, feeling,
Violent authoritarianism.
Road! Swallow your tears,
Trees! Cry to tears,
House. Dry smoking,
Everything whimpers, and the universe whimpers.
Written on the rainy morning of 1933+00.438+04.
Note: This poem was written by my sister Moyer when she was fifteen. The article was published in 1933 Blue Sky magazine under the signature of Chen. The elder sister was originally named Chen Shuyuan and Chen Yuan, and her pen names are Bai Bing, Coconut and Sand Island. 1937 10, she ran to Yan' an with the national justice of resisting Japan and saving the country, and changed her name to Mo Ye. "Mo Ye" is a sword maker in ancient legend, and it is also the name of the sword. Kim? This legend is recorded in Gan Bao's Searching for God. Lu Xun's novel "New Stories" also tells the evil story of this just struggle vividly. "Mo Ye" is the sharp knife of evil and the embodiment of justice. My sister went to Yan 'an and joined the revolutionary ranks of resisting Japan and saving the nation. Her intention is profound, and she expresses a girl's justice and lofty ambition.
Elder sister was born on February 6th, 19 18 (65438+ February 25th in the fourth year of the lunar calendar). When I was a child, I was smart and lively, smart and eager to learn, and I was often eloquent. In the spring when I was ten years old, my eldest brother and I sang a poem: "Spring is new, the pavilion in the mountains is really clear, and the wind blows wild flowers." At that time, she was known as a talented woman in the countryside. 1932, my father worked in Xiamen navy, and my sister moved to Gulangyu with her father to study at Ciqin Girls' Middle School in Gulangyu. I left my beautiful hometown and my mother came to the city, and my homesickness for my mother lingered in Chang Zaixin, so I expressed it through my composition and wrote the composition My Hometown. The article won the appreciation of the Chinese teacher and was recommended to Xiamen Daily for publication. From then on, it aroused her writing enthusiasm and inadvertently led her to the road of literary creation.
According to my mother and the villagers, when I was a child, my sister was more liberated, compassionate and righteous, and dared to say and make mistakes. For example, in the mountainous countryside full of feudal customs at that time, she dared to take a bath under the mountain stream waterfall and refused to bind her feet; When her father married a concubine, she bluntly reprimanded him in her composition. In Xiamen, she saw the miserable life of rickshaw drivers at the bottom of society, witnessed the rampage of Japanese ronin in Gulangyu, an "international concession", and witnessed the atrocities of foreign sailors bullying female students in China, which aroused strong indignation in her heart and sent poems to Shanghai Women's Monthly for publication. He also wrote the novel rickshaw puller, which was published in the magazine Mars founded by Xiamen underground party.
When I was in junior high school in Xiamen, my sister found many progressive books and periodicals to read from her eldest brother, such as the Soviet novel Liu Tie and Destruction, Ding Ling's In the Dark, Bing Xin's Send a Young Reader, and Xie Bingying's Diary of Joining the Army. She thinks that as long as women have ambition, they can also fight against sinister environment and dark forces, and women can also be soldiers. These progressive works have opened up a new world in the elder sister's heart and sprouted the idea of yearning for revolution in the girl's heart. She wrote out her feelings and articles promoting women's liberation and longing for a better future.
From 65438 to 0933, 15-year-old sister published the poem "Silent Expectation" in Blue Sky magazine, which has shown her precocious thoughts and profound thinking about society.
Ode to Yan An (lyrics)
Moyer
The setting sun shines on the tower shadow on the mountain.
The moonlight reflected the fireflies by the river.
Spring breeze blows all over vilen,
The mountains form a solid barrier.
Oh, Yanan!
You magnificent ancient city,
War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression's songs spread everywhere.
Oh, Yanan!
You magnificent ancient city,
Blood is running in your chest.
The hearts of thousands of young people,
Buried with hatred for the enemy,
In a long string of fields in Shan Ye,
Formed a solid front.
Look! The crowd raised their heads,
Look! The crowd has raised their hands.
Countless people and countless hearts,
He roared at the enemy.
The soldier aimed at the gun,
Prepare to fight the enemy.
Oh, Yanan,
Your majestic walls,
Build a solid front in the war of resistance.
Your name will live forever,
Brilliant in history!
Note: "July 7th" War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression broke out on 1937. The patriotic enthusiasm and national hatred accumulated in the elder sister's heart for the Japanese aggressors made her join the anti-Japanese national salvation movement. On the second day of "July 7th Incident", the elder sister and Zuo Ming, a dramatist of Nanguo Society, organized the fifth team of Shanghai National Salvation Drama, and the elder sister acted as a screenwriter and text propagandist.
After the "August 13th" Shanghai War, Zhabei was occupied by the Japanese army, and the Fifth Team of the National Salvation Drama devoted itself to the anti-Japanese war propaganda and refugee relief. Then, he set out for the northwest rear area to carry out national salvation propaganda. Arrive in Xi 'an, the ancient city in September. With the help of Comrade Zhou Yang, then director of education in the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region, the Fifth Team of the National Salvation Drama wrote a letter to the CPC Central Committee, indicating that it would go to Yan 'an. Soon, the Propaganda Department of the CPC Central Committee sent a comrade named Sun to Ann to meet them in Yan 'an. On June+10, 5438, with the help of the Eighth Route Army Office in Xi 'an, the Fifth Team of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Drama finally got rid of the stalking and entanglement of Kuomintang agents and successfully reached the revolutionary holy land of Yan 'an. Although my sister was only nineteen years old at that time, she had grown into a literary warrior who resisted Japan and saved the country.
The Fifth Team of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Drama was the first literary and art group to arrive in Yan 'an in the occupied area and the rear area at that time. Chairman Mao and the leaders of the CPC Central Committee received and hosted a banquet for all the team members, and the eldest sister and captain Zuo Ming were arranged to eat at the tables of Chairman Mao and the leading comrades of the Central Committee. Chairman Mao said at the dinner table: "There are many literary and art workers in Yan 'an now. Is it necessary to run a school? "Other leaders of the Central Committee agreed. Chairman Mao went on to say, "Let's call it Lu Xun Art College. "Then, the elder sister and the whole team comrades were introduced by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and Luo Fu (that is, Zhang Wentian) and collectively entered the third phase of the Anti-Japanese Military and Political University. The elder sister also served as the cultural and entertainment Committee member of the National Salvation Room.
1938 Spring, Yan 'an Lu Xun Art College was established. In March, the elder sister entered the first drama department in Lu Yi. /kloc-in the summer of 0/938, famous writers Sha Ting and He Qifang came to Yan 'an, Lu Yi set up a literature department, and the elder sister transferred to the first phase of literature study. While studying in Lu Yi, my sister wrote the lyrics of the famous Ode to Yan 'an, which was written by music student Zheng Lvcheng (Korean). Prior to this, the elder sister also wrote lyrics to commemorate the "December 28th" Sino-Japanese War in Shanghai. When Ode to Yan 'an was first performed for the CPC Central Committee and Chairman Mao in Yan 'an Auditorium, it was affirmed and praised by the central leaders. So the song "Ode to Yan 'an" resounded through Yan 'an City, spread all over the anti-Japanese base areas, and even spread to the revolutionary masses and overseas Chinese in the Kuomintang-controlled areas. It became an ode to patriotic enthusiasm in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, and triggered revolutionary youth to rush to Yan 'an and join the ranks of resisting Japan and saving the country. For example, the famous musician Shi sang this song from Henan to Yan 'an. After the liberation, Ode to Yan 'an was used as the background song in many movies, such as Storm in the South Island, Time of Prosperity, Melody of Coconut Grove, Never Fading Radio Wave and so on. In recent years, the opening song of the large-scale TV series "Ode to Yan 'an" broadcast by CCTV is the song of Big Sister. On June 5th 1993, Sister's famous anti-Japanese war song "Ode to Yan 'an" was also listed as "the classic work of China people in the 20th century" by the Chinese National Culture Promotion Association.
