Poems about heroes and martyrs

Kangqiao writes poems about the earthquake relief hero and martyr Wu Wenbin

Send off the hero

Kangqiao

I want to pay tribute to the sacrificed man in the dark night Hero

Raise to the sun

Sing the song of an iron army

Send farewell to you who will always close your eyes

I am also prepared Got a paintbrush

I want to paint the hero’s iron bones

Paint the hero’s once-beating heart

What I want more is to sculpt with blood

The best son of the motherland

I know a comrade in the Iron Army

left his last trace of strength in the disaster area

This sacrificed The hero is called Wu Wenbin

I lit candles with poems to see him off

There is no rubble on the road of the soul

There is no fatigue or rancidity

You are connected with the flesh and blood of this land

The hero who sacrificed his life forever

You are advancing on the cliff of Yingxiu figure

In the ruins of Dujiangyan search and rescue

There are your once shining eyes

Every sky of the sacrificed heroes

Go The passing clouds are all elegiac couplets

The miniatures cast to see you off
