少經離亂度年華
辭鄉一去成天涯
遠志如鴻任高蹈
冰心似玉自無瑕
悲懷神州陸沉久
共匪不滅難為家
踐約屠龍當此日
風雨江山又荻花
塵劫茫茫終有渡
崢嶸歸去紫雲霞
Chaos, turmoil, longing, broken youth,
Goodbye to birthplace, then the world is gone.
You yearn to fly off like your namesake swan;
Your jade heart flawless as the day you’re born
But weighed with grief as China falls so long;
No home while communism spreads its wrong.
Your vow will shine when dragon’s soul is torn;
You’ll cross stormed mountains into silver grass,
Be saved, the endless trials at last will pass
And lift, in rose clouds’ shine, returning truth.
* Hongyu is the pinyin translation for 鴻玉. In Chinese, 鴻 means swan goose, and 玉 means jade.
