May the torch of freedom light the earth;
From the eastern seas to the Heavenly Mountains,
May the Spirit of Zhenia enlighten the world!

Sounds of gunfire of the fatherland call us all!
Onwards to the west! Onwards to the greater world!

You are the protectors of the fatherland;
Now you are the spirits of unification,
As these are the men who unified the five Jins.

To become the Zhenian spirit moving onwards!
Open a new age, open the heavens and the earth,
Onwards to a bright, wide future!
