寄調 满 江 红

（September 20, 2011）

中华大地，多少事、壮怀激烈。
路途遥、前赴后继，古今英杰。
疾风何惧岁月徂，雄关直上岭云塞。

复神州、遍洒英雄泪，情凄切。
肝胆洞，是人杰，后人继，中兴业。 ②
人心齐强寇灰飞烟灭。
面对桐阴满庭芳，乱云暗渡永无歇。
步先贤、慷慨振神州，立意决。

-To the Tune of Man Jiang Hong

by Chuan Chi

(Written on September 20, 2011)

The vast land of China has seen countless deeds heroic and valiant,
The goal has been a long way to attain.
Countless martyrs and heroes, today and ancient,
Fell on battles and many more followed to advance the cause.
We are not afraid of the tempests or getting on years,
Nor of the clouds and mists while climbing mountains.

For the revival of China so many people devoted their lives and all,
We are all tears for their love and losses.
Dauntless and loyal were all our gallant fathers,
We carry forward their will for the renaissance of our land.
When hearts unite, fierce foes turn to dust and ashes..
Happy to see the phoenix trees blooming all over my courtyard,
But be alert of the ominous clouds,
They are coming endless and stealthy.
Let us tread in the steps of the pioneering forebears,
With gallant resolve we pledge ourselves to the prosperity of the Divine Land.

① 西南聯大中文系教授罗膺中（罗庸）填词《满江红》联大教师张清常谱曲，为西南联大校歌。
西南联大校歌《满江红》如下：

“万里长征，辞却了五朝宫阙。暂驻足，衡山湘水，又成别离。绝徼移栽桢干质，九州遍洒黎元血。尽笳吹，弦诵在山城，情弥切！
千秋耻，终当雪，中兴业，须人杰。便一成三户，壮怀难折。多难殷忧新国运，动心忍性希前哲。待驱除仇寇，复神京，还燕碣。”

1937 年卢沟桥事变后，中华民族面对危亡关头，北大、清华、南开三校合并成立国立西南联合大学，1938 年5 月4 日正式开课，直至1946 年5 月4 日结束，西南联大在云南办学9 年中，毕业学生2000 余人。抗日战争胜利以后，西南联大解散。北大，清华，南开分别迁回北京、天津复校。西南联大在抗日救国的战火纷飞中培养出了至少7 位两弹一星元勋，约171 位中国科学院或中国工程院院士。锦绣江山谁是中华主人翁，是我们十三亿同胞，风雨中一路走来，中国的教育如何能够继承和发扬联大成功的办学经验，以迎接中华民族复兴、崛起的千载难逢的大好机遇，深值当今学人深思。

Notes:

①Professor Luo Yingzhong (Luo Yong) of the Chinese Department at Southwest Associated University composed lyrics 《To the Tune Man Jiang Hong》, and faculty member Zhang Qingchang set them to music. This became the school song of Southwest Associated University.

The school song 《Man Jiang Hong》 goes as follows:

A march of ten thousand miles —
we bid farewell to the palace halls of five dynasties.
Pausing for a while by Mount Heng and Xiang River,
yet once more comes parting.
Across distant frontiers, transplanted are pillars of the nation,
and throughout the Nine Provinces is shed the people’s blood.
Still the reed-pipes sound, and chanting of classics rises in this mountain city,
our feelings all the deeper!

A shame of a thousand ages — at last it must be wiped away.
The work of renewal requires men of greatness.
Though the realm be broken into three households,
the heroic heart cannot be bent.
Through ordeals and bitter cares, the new nation’s fortune is forged,
discipline of mind and will recalling the sages of old.
Till the day we drive out the foe,
restore the sacred capital,
and return again to Yan and Jieshi.

After the Marco Polo Bridge Incident in 1937, when the Chinese nation faced a crisis of survival, Peking University, Tsinghua University, and Nankai University merged to form the National Southwest Associated University (Lianda). Classes formally began on May 4, 1938, and continued until May 4, 1946. For nine years, Lianda operated in Yunnan and graduated over 2,000 students. After Japan’s defeat in the War of Resistance, Lianda was dissolved, with Peking University, Tsinghua, and Nankai returning to Beijing and Tianjin to resume their campuses.

Amid the flames of the anti-Japanese war, Lianda produced at least seven “Two Bombs, One Satellite” pioneers and around 171 academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences or Chinese Academy of Engineering.

The question remains: Who are the true heirs of China’s splendid land? It is our 1.3 billion compatriots. As we have walked this stormy road, how can China’s education inherit and carry forward Lianda’s successful model of schooling, so as to meet the once-in-a-millennium opportunity of national revival and rise? This is a profound issue worthy of deep reflection by today’s scholars.

②This comes from the Han dynasty 《Music Bureau》 song "Rao Ge", particularly the piece "Song of the Sorrowful Old Man", referring to venerable figures with deep concern for the nation. “Liver and gallbladder laid bare” means being so transparent that one’s inner organs could be seen—an image for treating others with complete sincerity.
