alas, what a nation
once stricken by impoverishment
overcome by failings
ridden by sufferings
and trampled by turbulence
ah, what a country
today filled by riches
marked with successes
possessed by happiness
and promised with prosperity
such nation is the chinese all the greater
of which i, albeit abroad, am a lucky and proud member
this country is china but not any other
for which i have so profound a love for ever and ever
so before you, my chinese and my china
i wish you a longevity from the bottom of my heart
and before others, such as america and canada
i pronounce me a chinese coming from the great china
啊，这是一个怎样的民族！
曾经是何等的积贫，
又是多么的积弱，
曾饱尝何等的苦难啊，
更受罪于多少动荡和不安！
啊,这又是个怎样的国家！
如今她拥有无尽的财富，
更自豪于她连绵的成功，
看她是多么的欢心啊，
还胸怀无限的憧憬和希望！
这个民族啊就是越发伟大的中华，
是我海外游子深感自豪和骄傲的我的中华，
这个国家啊绝非任何他国，
她是我永远热爱挚爱敬爱的我的中国。
所以，在您面前，中华，中国，
我衷心祝愿您永远繁荣昌盛万寿无疆；
所以，在他民他国面前，无论是美国，还是加国，
我的民族和祖国的表白将是更加的激越和铿锵！
