歌曲 | 钟一鸣《少年中国说》

故今日之责任，不在他人，而全在少年。

Therefore, the responsibility bestowed by the times falls on nobody but us youth. 

少年智则国智，少年富则国富，

If we are intelligent, China will be intelligent; if we are wealthy, China will be wealthy; 

少年强则国强，少年独立则国独立，

if we are strong, China will be strong; if we are independent, China will be independent; 

少年自由则国自由，少年进步则国进步，

if we are free, China will be free; if we are progressive, China will be progressive

少年胜于欧洲，则国胜于欧洲，

if we are superior to young Europeans,China will be superior to Europe; 

少年雄于地球，则国雄于地球。

if we are the best in the world,China will be the best in the world. 

红日初升，其道大光；

The morning sun is rising in the sky, bright and brilliant; 

河出伏流，一泻汪洋。

the Yellow River is running to the sea, mighty and magnificent. 

潜龙腾渊，鳞爪飞扬；

A hidden dragon leaps out of a deep pool and fishes flee;

乳虎啸谷，百兽震惶；

a tiger cub roars in the hollow valley and beasts creep;

鹰隼试翼，风尘吸张。

a proud eagle springs off the vast land and dust reels

奇花初胎，矞矞皇皇

 Exotic buds are bursting in the trees, pretty and vigorous; 

干将发硎，有作其芒。

double-edged swords are sharpened on the stones, icy and glorious.

天戴其苍，地履其黄，

Blue heaven over our heads, yellow earth below our feet,

纵有千古，横有八荒，

profound history in our hearts, and extended roads before our eyes, 

前途似海，来日方长。

we look forward to our future as wide as ocean, great and grand.

美哉我少年中国，与天不老；

So majestic is our young China, forever with the universe;

壮哉我中国少年，与国无疆。

so robust are our Chinese youth, eternal with our motherland.
