毛泽东

钟山风雨起苍黄，
百万雄师过大江。
虎距龙盘今胜昔，
天翻地覆慨而慷。
宜将剩勇追穷寇，
不可沽名学霸王。
天若有情天亦老，
人间正道是沧桑。

The Capture of Nanjing by the PLA
April 1949

东山 译

The Purple Golden Mountain has changed color in the tempest, 
Our  mighty army million strong crossed the Yangtze River. 
Surpassing her ancient glories the City of Tiger Crouching and Dragon Curling,  
In heroic high spirits we witness Heaven and Earth overturned. 
Pursue the tottering foes with courage and power unspent,
Never seek idle fame as Overlord Xiang Yu did  . 
Heaven would become aged, were He sentient,  
The world is now transforming the sea to mulberry field.
