Dear comrades! Do you remember how at dawn when artillery boomed, how at night when blizzards raged, we yearned for the day of victory?

That day has come. Tears of joy fill our eyes, everyone is jubilant; rivers sing and laugh; mountains regain their youth. All are listening, listening, listening to the voice of Chairman Mao which shakes the earth:

The People's Republic of China is born! The Chinese people have stood up!
