少年中国说
故今日之责任，不在他人，而全在少年。少年智则国智，少年富则国富，少年强则国强，少年独立则国独立，少年自由则国自由，少年进步则国进步，少年胜于欧洲，则国胜于欧洲，少年雄于地球，则国雄于地球。红日初升，其道大光；河出伏流，一泻汪洋。潜龙腾渊，鳞爪飞扬；乳虎啸谷，百兽震惶；鹰隼试翼，风尘吸张。奇花初胎，矞矞皇皇；干将妇硎，有作其芒。天戴其苍，地履其黄，纵有千古，横有八荒，前途似海，来日方长。美哉我少年中国，与天不老；壮哉我中国少年，与国无疆。
On our Young China
Therefore, the responsibility bestowed by the times falls on nobody but us youth. If we are intelligent, China will be intelligent; if we are wealthy, China will be wealthy; if we are strong, China will be strong; if we are independent, China will be independent; if we are free, China will be free; if we are progressive, China will be progressive; if we are superior to young Europeans, China will be superior to Europe; if we are best in the world, China will be best in the world. The morning sun is rising in the sky, bright and brilliant; the Yellow River is running to the sea, mighty and magnificent. A hidden dragon leaps out of a deep pool and fishes flee; a tiger cub roars in the hollow valley and beasts creep; a proud eagle springs off the vast land and dust reels. Exotic buds are bursting in the trees, pretty and vigorous; bouble-edged swords are sharpened on the stones, icy and glorious. Blue heaven over our heads, yellow earth below our feet, profound history in our hearts, and extended roads before our eyes, we look forward to our future as wide as ocean, great and grand. So majestic is our young China, forever with the universe; so robust are our Chnese youth, eternal with our motherland.
