Long Live Comrade Mao for Ten Thousand Years

"Long Live Comrade Mao for Ten Thousand Years" (simplified Chinese: 万岁 毛主席; traditional Chinese: 萬歲 毛主席; pinyin: Wànsuì máo zhǔxí) variously known in English as Long Live Chairman Mao for Ten Thousand Years or simple Long Live Chairman Mao is a Chinese patriotic song popularised during the Cultural Revolution. The title of the song is based on a popular slogan of the Red Guard,[1] and was used widely during the Cultural Revolution in public demonstrations and rallies. However, since the end of the Mao era, the song has become more scarcely used due to its links to Mao's pervasive personality cult. However, the instrumental version of the song is still occasionally used.

The golden sun rises in the east,
The light shines.
Dongfeng Wanli, flowers are open,
The red flag is like a big ocean.
Great mentor, wise leader,
Dear Chairman Mao!
The sun is in the hearts of the revolutionary people,
The red sun in the heart.
Long live Chairman Mao! (long live Chairman Mao!)
Long live Chairman Mao! (Long live the Chairman Mao!)
Long live long live
Long live thousands of years!
Long live Comrade Chairman Mao.

Open up the fog and disperse that dark cloud.
The sky is clear.
The revolutionary ship rides the wind and waves.
The future is brilliant.
Great commander, great helmsman,
Dear Chairman Mao!
The revolutionary people are following you,
Never lose direction.
Long live Chairman Mao! (long live Chairman Mao!)
Long live Chairman Mao! (Long live the Chairman Mao!)
Long live long live
Hurrah!
Long live the Chairman Mao.

All nations are as strong as steel.
High morale!
The revolutionary ship rides the wind and waves.
The future is brilliant.
Great mentor,
The wise leader, dear Chairman Mao!
People of all ethnic groups follow you.
Head towards communism.
Long live Chairman Mao! (long live Chairman Mao!)
Long live Chairman Mao! (Long live the Chairman Mao!)
Long live long live
Long live thousands of years!
Long live Comrade Chairman Mao.
