  1. 一、二、三、四

    One, two, three, four

  2. 听说过,没见过,两万五千里

    Heard about it, never seen it, twenty-five thousand miles

  3. 有的说,没的做,怎知不容易

    Some say it, but few do, how could one know it's tough

  4. 埋着头,向前走,寻找我自己

    With my head down, I move forward, searching for myself

  5. 走过来,走过去,没有根据地

    Walk here, walk there, with no fixed ground

  6. 想什么,做什么,是步枪和小米

    What to think, what to do, it's rifles and millet

  7. 道理多,总是说,是大炮轰炸机

    Many reasons, always spoken, it's cannons and bombers

  8. 汗也流,泪也落,心中不服气

    Sweat flows, tears fall, yet I remain unyielding inside

  1. 藏一藏,躲一躲,心说别着急

    Hide a bit, duck a bit, telling my heart not to rush

  2. 噢,一、二、三、四、五、六、七

    Oh, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven

  3. 噢,一、二、三、四、五、六、七

    Oh, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven

  4. 一、二、三、四

    One, two, three, four

  5. 问问天,问问地,还有多少里

    Ask the heavens, ask the earth, how many miles are there

  6. 求求风,求求雨,快离我远去

    I beg the wind, I beg the rain, quickly leave me alone

  7. 山也多,水也多,分不清东西

    There are many mountains, many waters, hard to tell the east from the west

  8. 人也多,嘴也多,讲不清道理

    There are many people, many mouths, can't make sense of the truth

  9. 怎样说,怎样做,才真正是自己

    How to speak, how to act, to truly be oneself

  10. 怎样歌,怎样唱,这心中才得意

    How to sing, how to chant, for the heart to find its joy

  11. 一边走,一边想,雪山和草地

    Walking and pondering, the snow-capped peaks and the grassy fields

  12. 一边走,一边唱,领袖毛主席

    Walking and singing, our leader Chairman Mao

  13. 噢,一、二、三、四、五、六、七

    Oh, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven

  14. 噢,一、二、三、四、五、六、七

    Oh, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven

  15. 噢,一、二、三、四、五、六、七

    Oh, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven

  16. 一、二、三、四、五、六、七

    One, two, three, four, five, six, seven

  17. 一、二、三、四、五、六、七

    One, two, three, four, five, six, seven

  18. 一、二、三、四、五、六、七

    One, two, three, four, five, six, seven

  19. 一、二、三、四、五、六、七

    One, two, three, four, five, six, seven

  20. 听说过,没见过,两万五千里

    Heard of it, never seen it, twenty-five thousand miles

  21. 有的说,没的做,怎知不容易

    Some say, but few do, how could it be easy to know

  22. 埋着头,向前走,寻找我自己

    Burying my head, moving forward, searching for myself

  23. 走过来,走过去,没有根据地

    Walk this way, walk that way, with no solid ground.

  24. 一、二、三、四、五、六、七

    One, two, three, four, five, six, seven.

  25. 一、二、三、四、五、六、七

    One, two, three, four, five, six, seven.

  26. 一、二、三、四、五、六、七

    One, two, three, four, five, six, seven.

One, two, three, four

听tīng说shuō过guò,没méi见jiàn过guò,两liǎng万wàn五wǔ千qiān里lǐ

Heard about it, never seen it, twenty-five thousand miles

有yǒu的de说shuō,没méi的de做zuò,怎zěn知zhī不bù容róng易yì

Some say it, but few do, how could one know it's tough

埋mái着zhe头tóu,向xiàng前qián走zǒu,寻xún找zhǎo我wǒ自zì己jǐ

With my head down, I move forward, searching for myself

走zǒu过guò来lái,走zǒu过guò去qù,没méi有yǒu根gēn据jù地dì

Walk here, walk there, with no fixed ground

想xiǎng什shén么me,做zuò什shén么me,是shì步bù枪qiāng和hé小xiǎo米mǐ

What to think, what to do, it's rifles and millet

道dào理lǐ多duō,总zǒng是shì说shuō,是shì大dà炮pào轰hōng炸zhà机jī

Many reasons, always spoken, it's cannons and bombers

汗hàn也yě流liú,泪lèi也yě落luò,心xīn中zhōng不bù服fú气qì

Sweat flows, tears fall, yet I remain unyielding inside

藏cáng一yi藏cáng,躲duǒ一yi躲duǒ,心xīn说shuō别bié着zháo急jí

求qiú求qiú风fēng,求qiú求qiú雨yǔ,快kuài离lí我wǒ远yuǎn去qù

I beg the wind, I beg the rain, quickly leave me alone

山shān也yě多duō,水shuǐ也yě多duō,分fēn不bù清qīng东dōng西xī

怎zěn样yàng说shuō,怎zěn样yàng做zuò,才cái真zhēn正zhèng是shì自zì己jǐ

How to speak, how to act, to truly be oneself

怎zěn样yàng歌gē,怎zěn样yàng唱chàng,这zhè心xīn中zhōng才cái得dé意yì

How to sing, how to chant, for the heart to find its joy

一yì边biān走zǒu,一yì边biān想xiǎng,雪xuě山shān和hé草cǎo地dì

Walking and pondering, the snow-capped peaks and the grassy fields

一yì边biān走zǒu,一yì边biān唱chàng,领lǐng袖xiù毛máo主zhǔ席xí
