In order to express the speed of urban development
In order to show the richness of city life.
Here we come
From hills and mountains
From the basin plain
Gunfire from the agricultural front is getting colder and colder.
We have shovels, steel shovels, hammers and tile knives.
For example, a group of ancient soldiers who can fight.
The countryside once again surrounded the city.
In the city.
People outside the city
In the transverse plane
In a vertical three-dimensional space
We weave the plan with steel bars.
Casting blueprint with cement
Raise the morning sun again and again with a tower crane.
Crush dusk with compacted stones again and again.
high summer
We scattered the blazing sun on the strip square.
severe winter
We built the cold air into the high wall of the building.
sky
We exchange sweat for sweat.
Leave disappointment to hope.
night
We return fatigue to fatigue.
Take your hometown to sleep.
I only remember in my dream.
Family happiness is abandoned in the horizon.
The lost ideal of life on scaffolding.
Those battles in full swing
Roughen your palm slowly.
Those years of crying
Bend your spine slowly.
We build cities.
But it doesn't belong to this city.
When the completion is near the end again.
When the new journey ends again,
Who will notice those obscene figures?
Who ever noticed those tired faces?
Leaving is doomed to be forgotten.
Now I'm on my way home.
How many workers can't help looking back quietly?
How many brothers can't help crying?
You read under the warm wall lamp.
You wander on the wide road.
Maybe I won't think of those builders from the countryside.
Even so, so what?
Because we always have reason to be proud.
There are various customs in that city.
All the works we didn't sign.
It has been published by the motherland in a beautiful and vibrant land.
