Lyrics:

I love Wuzhishan, and I love Wanquan River.

Taking over the steel guns of the Red Army with both hands, Hainan Island defended the motherland.

Ah Wuzhishan, ah Wanquan River

How many stories have you told about the Red Army? You sing praises to the Red Army day and night.

I love the mangroves in Wuzhishan, where the Red Army once lit a bonfire.

I love the red rock in Wuzhishan.

The Red Army once sharpened a knife on a stone. I like the road taken by the Red Army.

I went to the post along the mountain road. I love the clear spring water of Wanquan River.

The Red Army used to cook wild fruits with river water. I love the thousands of waves of Wanquan River.
