清平乐·六盘山
毛泽东 1935年10月
天高云淡,望断南飞雁。
不到长城非好汉,屈指行程二万。
六盘山上高峰,红旗漫卷西风。
今日长缨在手,何时缚住苍龙?
Qing Ping Yue: Liupan Mountain was written by Mao Zedong in October 1935 during the Long March. The poem combines the vast autumn landscape of Liupan Mountain with the determination and spirit of a historic journey.
The famous line “不到长城非好汉” is often translated as “Not a true hero until reaching the Great Wall.” The poem moves from the distant autumn sky and migrating geese to the red flag sweeping through the western wind, ending with a powerful question about the future.
Today, I bring this classic Chinese poem into music through my original composition and piano performance. After introducing the poem, I will enter Composition Time and play my original song inspired by these words.
