ten thousand

China chose resistance.
This resistance brought suffering that affected each individual. It gave even the young children national consciousness. It put the marching song of the soldiers upon their lips. The children cry the fulfillment of a prediction when they sing "Chi-lai, chi-lai . . ."—"Arise, arise . . . ten thousand with one heart."

中國選擇了抵抗。
這場抵抗給每個人都帶來了前所未有的痛苦。連年幼的小孩也因此有了民族意識。他們嘴邊開始掛著士兵們的進行曲。孩子們唱著“起來，起來……我們萬眾一心”，就像是在吶喊著這預言的實現。
