From Modern Mao Zedong's "Water Tune to Jinggangshan"
Ling has been here for a long time and returned to Jinggangshan. Looking for the old place thousands of miles away, the old look has changed. There are songs and dances everywhere, more gurgling water, high roads into the clouds. After Huang Yangjie, you don't need to think about danger.
It is human nature that the storm is moving and the flag is stirring. Thirty-eight years later, with a flick of a finger. You can spend nine days on the moon, catch turtles in five oceans, and laugh and laugh. Nothing is difficult for those who are willing to try.

I have been ambitious for a long time, and I boarded Jinggangshan again today. Looking for this ancient land from thousands of miles away has lost half of its former appearance. Everywhere is the new scene of late spring in Yin Fei, Ti Ying, where the flowing water is gurgling and the broad Panshan Highway goes straight into the clouds. After Huang Yangjie Pass, there is nothing dangerous to see.
During the revolutionary period, the wind and thunder stirred and the red flag rolled. This is the world. Thirty-eight years have passed, and in a flash. You can fly to the sky to pick the moon, or dive into the deep sea to catch fish or turtles, and play a song of triumph to repay the teacher. Nothing is difficult in the world, as long as you are willing to climb it.

World: the world.
Thirty-eight years have passed, and in a blink of an eye: distance1It has been thirty-eight years since Mao Zedong led the autumn harvest uprising troops to Jinggangshan in June, 927, but this time, the author feels that it is only a short time.
Nine days on the moon: nine days, the highest point in the sky. Looks the same.

The whole poem is a chronicle, a scene and the next expression. The writing style is concise and clear, following the poet's consistent writing style. Hero and self-confidence are still two elements in Mao Zedong's poetry.
