Not long ago, a member of the CPPCC Shaanxi to amend the national anthem, think, modern war "need not be risked gunfire, do not advocate risked gunfire, also need not risked gunfire", and to "2009" as a new national anthem parade. The reason is: since the establishment of new Chinese has used the "March of the volunteers", is not in line with the modern environment; it advocates the harmony of the humanized management, not with flesh and blood to resist the enemy soldiers advanced weapons; "2009" parade song lyrics saying "China forces unstoppable", it is suggested to be the National Anthem changed to "2009" parade.
Don't understand some NPC and CPPCC member representatives why not question closely related to concern a lot and the livelihood of the people, and always keen on taking forward shock motion.
"March of the volunteers" was 1935 for the film "children" as the theme song.Tian Han lyricist, composer Nie er.The song inspired the Chinese people fought bravely against the Japanese.After the founding of new Chinese, "March of the volunteers" was officially designated as the National Anthem of people's Republic of China (generation). After the start of the cultural revolution, Tian Han was overthrown, two years after death.Waste not sing national anthem.After the cultural revolution, the country had to write a new national anthem.Under repeated discussions, without a satisfactory result.So using another scheme: to retain the original song lyrics, re.In March 5, 1978 the National People's Congress unanimously adopted a new national anthem.Broadly similar television sentences (new lyrics see Annex).
New words have legal status, but people do not sing.By December 4, 1982 fifth session of the National People's Congress: recovery "March of the volunteers" as the National Anthem of the people's Republic of China in March 5, 1978, the opening of the new national anthem revocation decision.
It seems, NPC and CPPCC should stipulates: all violate the "no toss" principle "fiddle" member representatives will recall.
American anthem with China anthem, was born from the flames of war.
In 1812, USA launched anti British War (War of
1812), this is the second time the war of independence American "".September 13, 1814 morning, lawyer Francis Scott base (Francis Scott
Key) to see, after the battle of Fort Mike Henry (Fort
McHenry), smoke is not scattered, a America flag is not the British artillery destroyed, still in the castle is fluttering in the wind.Poetic he, emotion surging, and wrote a poem "defense of Fort McHenry" (Defence
of Fort
McHenry).He poetry to his sister (sister), (brother-in-law), judge Nicholson.Nicholson think that poetry with "Ake Bernard Lee Von Go" (The
Anacreontic Song) melody matching.That was in eighteenth Century the British amateur musicians in London club "Anacreontic
Society" song.Very popular.
After 17 September, American newspapers have published with the poem the song music.Soon, the song name was changed to "The
Star-Spangled Banner".It can be translated as "the Star Spangled Banner" or "the Star Spangled Banner".
USA another famous patriotic song, the song is "The Stars and Stripes
Forever", translated as "the star spangled banner will never fall", is American composer John Philip Sousa (John Philip Sousa)."The
Star-Spangled Banner" melody is the British composer John - Standford - Smith (John Stafford
Smith) works.
That is to say, we have heard today America anthem, music from the British hand.
"The Star Spangled Banner" came out, quickly widely sung, years of enduring.
In March 3, 1931, the song "the Star Spangled Banner" by American by Congress, as the National Anthem (national
anthem).
Imagine, if Chinese someone suggested China anthem with Japanese music, will be disorderly brick stone.
USA can be said to be no restrictions of any kind, or that's pragmatism, or is the wishes of the people.Since the people so love this piece of "the Star Spangled Banner", members of Congress as the people's representative, of course is the will of the people to become law.
In the world to be American police as "urban management", but for its own people is really very good.So USA people's patriotic feeling is come very naturally emerge from the bottom of my heart.Every large activities, such as sports, always want to please a professional or amateur singers sing the national anthem.A standing ovation.Many people also placed his right hand on the chest.In such an emotional situation, any foreign people will perceive: powerful America from what place.
"The Star Spangled Banner" poetry has four sections (four
stanzas).Usually only sing the first festival:
Oh, can you see, by the dawn's early light, What we are facing, cheers sound? Whose broad stripes and bright stars, risking the night fire, Still carve wind fluttering, in our military bunker? Shiny artillery, bombs, They all bear witness, flag safe and sound. You see the stars and stripes are not yet flying high In the free state, the home of the brave? The same is conceived and born in the revolutionary time, America anthem and China National Anthem or their respective characteristics, reflects from a certain extent.
From the America anthem, can see the optimistic, brave victory, faith and freedom.
