Transcript
  • [Poem below image:]: Flowers bloom on the Jinggang Mountain, Here comes Grandpa Zhu De, A red star shines on his hat, He carries big pumpkins on his shoulder-pole. Crossing mountains and fording rivers, The heavier the loads, the greater his vigor, He directs the Red Army to victory in battle, And himself takes the lead to grow crops. Everyone loves the elder revolutionary, Everyone learns from him and praises him.
