The Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution Is Indeed Good!


[This version was aired by the Shanghai People's Broadcasting station in 1976. It begins with the radio announcer saying, "Now let's listen to the song, The Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution is Indeed Good!"]

The Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution is indeed good,
Oh, indeed good, indeed good and indeed, indeed good!
Marxism-Leninism is popularized,
Red flags flutter in the realm of social ideology.
Revolutionary big-character posters are like fires spreading all over,
And our triumphant songs rise up to the clouds.

Ten hundred million people unite in fighting; our red state power stands firm.
A new generation is growing to maturity,
Going against the wind and breaking the waves, they are the heroes.
The industries learn from Daqing,
And the agricultural sector learns from Dazhai.
News of victory is reported all around the country.
Seven hundred million people follow Chairman Mao,
To continue revolution and walk forward.

The Cultural Revolution is good!
The Cultural Revolution is good!
The Proletarian Cultural Revolution is indeed good,
Oh, indeed good, indeed good and indeed, indeed good!
