SimplifiedTraditionalPinyinEnglish translation

黄河之滨，集合着一群中华民族优秀的子孙；

人类解放，救国的责任，全靠我们自己来担承。

同学们，努力学习，团结、紧张、严肃、活泼，我们的作风；

同学们积极工作，艰苦奋斗，英勇牺牲，我们的传统。

像黄河之水，汹涌澎湃，把日寇驱逐于国土之东。

向着新社会前进，前进，我们是劳动者的先锋!

黃河之濱，集合著一群中華民族優秀的子孫﹔

人類解放，救國的責任，全靠我們自己來擔承。

同學們，努力學習，團結、緊張、嚴肅、活潑，我們的作風﹔

同學們積極工作，艱苦奮斗，英勇犧牲，我們的傳統。

像黃河之水，洶涌澎湃，把日寇驅逐於國土之東。

向著新社會前進，前進，我們是勞動者的先鋒!

On the bank of the Yellow River, gather the fine sons of the Chinese people;
To liberate mankind, to defend our motherland, we'll carry out our duty.
Schoolmates, study hard.
Develop our school's fine spirit--
Be united, alert, earnest and lively.
Schoolmates, carry on our tradition--
Work hard, be brave in the face of death.
Like the Yellow River, surging and sweeping forward, drive the Japanese invaders out of our land.
To a new society we march, we are the pioneers of the working people.
