A lark is flying across the blue sky:
"I love you, China!"
I love you, China,
I love you, China,
I love your exuberant seedlings in spring,
I love your bountiful golden fruits in autumn,
I love your temperament of green pine trees,

I will dedicate the most beautiful song to you,
My motherland,
My homeland.
I love you, China,
I love you, China,
I love your blue waves rolling across the South Sea,
I love your white snow flakes flying over the North Land,
I love your endless forests,
I love your grandiose mountains,
I love your vivacious streams,
That flow through my dreamland with clear sparkles.
I love you, China,
I love you, China,

Bloodstained Glory
Bloodstained Glory is a folk song written in 1987. Originally used to commemorate those who died during Sino-Vietnamese War, the song instead became popular for its commemoration of those who died during the Tiananmen Square protests of 1989.
也許我告別 將不再回來，你是否理解？你是否明白？
也許我倒下 將不再起來，你是否還要永久的期待？
如果是這樣 你不要悲哀 共和國的旗幟上有我們血染的風采。
如果是這樣 你不要悲哀 共和國的旗幟上有我們血染的風采。
也許我的眼睛 再不能張開，你是否理解我沉沒的情懷？
也許我長眠 再不能醒來，你是否相信我化作了山脈？
如果是這樣 你不要悲哀，共和國的土壤裏有我們付出的愛。
如果是這樣 你不要悲哀，共和國的土壤裏有我們付出的愛。
如果是這樣，你不要悲哀，共和國的旗幟上有我們血染的風采。
如果是這樣，你不要悲哀，共和國的旗幟上有我們血染的風采。血染的風采。
Perhaps I should say farewell, never to come back. Do you understand? Do you understand that?
Perhaps I should fall, never to rise again. Do you have to wait forever?
If that is that, please do not grieve, the flag of the Republic has our bloodstained glory.
If that is that, please do not grieve, the flag of the Republic has our bloodstained glory.
Perhaps my eyes should never open again. Do you understand my sunken emotions?
Perhaps I will sleep forever, never to wake up. Do you believe that I have been transformed into mountains?
If that is that, please do not grieve, the soils of the Republic contains the love we have given.
If that is that, please do not grieve, the soils of the Republic contains the love we have given.
If that is that, please do not grieve, the flag of the Republic has our bloodstained glory. Bloodstained Glory.

The 5 characters in the original Chinese title of the song were used for the names of the "Fuwa" mascots which symbolized the 2008 Summer Olympic: Bei-Bei: fish, Jing-Jing: giant panda, Huan-Huan: the fire, Ying-Ying: gazelle, and Ni-Ni: swallow.
The song runs over six minutes in length. Since its release the song has been extremely popular with the Chinese public.

Without the Communist Party, There Would Be No New China
"Without the Communist Party, There Would Be No New China" is a very popular song in the People's Republic of China, which originated in 1943.
During World War II when China was fighting the Japanese invasion, Chiang Kai-shek published a book titled ''The Destiny of China'' on March 10, 1943, with a slogan that "without the Kuomintang there would be no China." The Communist Party of China published an editorial entitled "Without the Communist Party there would be no China" in the ''Jiefang Daily'' on August 25, 1943 to criticize the book, concluding that "if today's China had no Communist Party of China, there would be no China." In October 1943, Cao Huoxing , a 19-year-old member of the Communist Party of China, created the lyric for "Without the Communist Party There Would Be No China", based on this.
In 1950, shortly after the foundation of the People's Republic of China, Mao Zedong changed the title to "Without the Communist Party, There Would Be No New China," by adding the word "new."
The song is included in the Cultural Revolution-era musical ''The East Is Red''.
On June 26, 2006, a memorial in honour of the song "Without the Communist Party, There Would Be No New China" was opened in Fangshan District, Beijing, China with an area of 6000 m2 .
Note: Cao Huoxing made the Communist Party masculine in the official lyrics by using 他 that would literally mean "he", even though it would be normally considered neutral. However, gender is indistiguishable in spoken Chinese and both "he" and "it" share the same spoken form.

Wishing You Happiness and Prosperity
"Wishing You Happiness and Prosperity" is a song and a Chinese Lunar New Year standard. Other English titles for the song include "Congratulations" and "Happiness To You."
The music and words of the song are both by Chen Gexin and it was written in Shanghai in 1945 to celebrate the defeat of and liberation of China at the end of the Second Sino-Japanese War . The final lines of this song replicate the typical beat of the Chinese drum. An early popular recording of the song was by Yao Lee and her brother Yao Min.
Because its Mandarin title is also a common Lunar New Year greeting and the song celebrates the arrival of spring, it quickly became associated almost exclusively with New Year celebrations and remains a part of the season's musical canon. Contemporary versions of the song frequently appear on Chinese New Year musical collection albums, sometimes as electronic dance music performances and occasionally also feature lyrics in Minnan and even English.
A more traditional rendition of the song appeared on the 2002 China Dolls album 多一點點 - 小調大風行.
