Chinese National Anthem

On May 19, one week after the earthquake in Sichuan, Hebei Foreign Language College in Nandaihe had a candlelight ceremony to remember the people affected. Although the event was initiated by the foreign English teachers and candlelight ceremonies are pretty Western from what we heard, the entire event was in Chinese, except for the very end when they said, "Thank you" to us. Here is part of the ending as they played and sang the Chinese national anthem, "March of the Volunteers."

March of the Volunteers:

起来！不愿做奴隶的人们！
把我们的血肉，筑成我们新的长城！
中华民族到了最危险的时候，
每个人被迫着发出最后的吼声。
起来！起来！起来！
我们万众一心，
冒着敌人的炮火，前进！
冒着敌人的炮火，前进！
前进！前进！进！

Qǐlái! Búyuàn zuò núlì de rénmen!
Bǎ wǒmen de xiěròu zhùchéng wǒmen xīnde chángchéng!
Zhōnghuá Mínzú dào le zùi wēixiǎnde shíhòu,
Měige rén bèipòzhe fāchū zùihòude hǒushēng.
Qǐlái! Qǐlái! Qǐlái!
Wǒmen wànzhòngyīxīn,
Màozhe dírén de pàohuǒ, Qiánjìn!
Màozhe dírén de pàohuǒ, Qiánjìn!
Qiánjìn! Qiánjìn! Jìn!
