To the Tune of Tsai Sang Tzu
Mao Zedong
Man ages all too easily, not Nature:
Year by year the Double Ninth returns.
On this Double Ninth,
The yellow blooms on the battlefield smell sweeter.
Each year the autumn wind blows fierce,
Unlike spring’s splendour,
Yet surpassing spring’s splendour,
See the endless expanse of frosty sky and water.
（许渊冲）
采桑子·重阳
毛泽东
人生易老天难老，岁岁重阳。今又重阳，战地黄花分外香。
一年一度秋风劲，不似春光。胜似春光，廖廓江天万里霜。
