I did it so that it is of informative value and we learn to recognise the anthem if it is ever played in our hearing!

It is also interesting to hear the tunes.

If one notices the tunes of the Middle Eastern nations except Yemen is near similar, likewise that of the ex Soviet Republics.

It is an interesting study,

its interesting to listen to "March of the Volunteers" in English (later adopted as PRC anthem), by Paul Bobeson in 1941 an African American bass

The lyrics of ROC anthem is actually a brief speech by Dr Sun Yat-Sen

ROK (S Korea) govmt in exile once used Auld Lang Syne melody for their anthem when in China.

Thanks for the amplification.

It increased my knowledge and I appreciate it!

What I could not understand is why is their an anthem for Hong Kong and Macau?

What does the lyrics of the Chinese National Anthem mean?

Who wrote the lyrics?

Who composed the tune?

March of the Volunteers - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
March of the Volunteers was composed by Nie Er to a text by Tian Han in 1934.[5] Popular stories suggest, however, that Tian wrote it on a tobacco paper after being arrested in Shanghai and thrown into a Kuomintang (KMT) jail in 1935. The song was featured as the theme song of the 1935 patriotic film Sons and Daughters in a Time of Storm, also known as "Children of the Storm," a story about an intellectual who leaves to fight in the Second Sino-Japanese War. It was one of many songs that were promoted secretly among the population as part of the anti-Japanese resistance during the "left-wing cinema movement" (1931-37).[6] The song was released as an album by the Pathé label of EMI in 1935.

Arise, ye who refuse to be slaves;
With our very flesh and blood
Let us build our new Great Wall!
The peoples of China are at their most critical time,
Everybody must roar defiance.
Arise! Arise! Arise!
Millions of hearts with one mind,
Brave the enemy's gunfire,
March on!
Brave the enemy's gunfire,
March on! March on! March on, on!

It is also interesting to find out that it was not until 2004 that "March of the Volunteers" was constitutionally recognized as the National Anthem of PRC.

Nimo,

Thanks.

What was the National Anthem before 2004 and why was it changed?
