Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Song

Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Song

The Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Song (蔣公紀念歌) was written to commemorate the late President Chiang Kai-shek of the Republic of China. There are two songs, the second song was written by Hwang Yau-tai or Huang Youdi, Huang Yu-ti (黃友棣) in 1975, who later also wrote Chiang Ching-kuo Memorial Song in 1988. The song was formerly popular for school choir competitions as students were required to memorize it. Since the 1990s, under the presidency of Lee Teng-hui, this song has fallen into disuse. However, most of the population still knows this song. The song is still being played daily in the National Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall every morning. Occasionally, it can be heard during the political campaigns as well.

Lyrics (Chinese)

(This one was written by 秦孝儀 and 黃友棣, Hwang Yau-tai)

翳惟總統武嶺 蔣公巍巍蕩蕩民無能名巍巍蕩蕩民無能名

革命實繼志中山篤學則接武陽明黃埔怒濤奮墨絰而耀日星重慶精誠製白梃以撻堅甲利兵使百萬之眾輸誠何易使渠帥投服復皆不受敵之脅從使十數刀殂帝國取消不平等條約而卒使之平使驕妄強敵畏威懷德至今尚猶感激涕零

南陽諸葛汾陽子儀猶當愧其未之能行以新生活育我民德以憲政之治植我民主以經濟建設厚我民生以九年國民教育俾我民智益蒸倫理民主科學革命實踐力行中華文化於焉復興

奈何奸匪叛亂大陸如沸如焚中懷饑溺臥火抱冰乃眷西顧日邁月征如何天不悔()一旦奪我元戎滄海雨泣神州晦冥孤臣孽子攀木腐心孤臣孽子攀木腐心

化沉哀為震雷合眾志為長風縱九死而不悔願神明兮鑒臨誓誅此大奸元惡誓復我四明兩京誓弭此大辱慘禍誓收我河洛燕雲

錦水長碧蔣山長青翳惟總統武嶺 蔣公巍巍蕩蕩民無能名巍巍蕩蕩民無能名

English translation of the first song

President General Chiang, you are the savior of mankind, you are the greatest person in the whole world.
President General Chiang, you are the lighthouse of freedom, you are the Great Wall of democracy.
|: Eliminated the warlords, fought foreign aggression, opposed communism for righteousness, to seek the renaissance of our race:|
General Chiang, General Chiang, your everlasting spirit will forever guide us.
We shall win against communism, we shall build the nation, we shall win against communism, we shall build the nation!
