Chinese Pianist Plays Propaganda Tune at White House

The song Lang Lang played describes how beautiful China is and then near the end has this verse, “When friends are here, there is fine wine /But if the jackal comes /What greets it is the hunting rifle.” The “jackal” in the song is the United States.

2. From the Epoch Times Falun Gong cult newspaper...
Chinese people have every right to be proud of their fight to resist US aggression.

5. That's debatable
Wasn't the Korean War started by the North invading the South?

4. My Motherland (Wo de zu guo)
Large billowing waves on this big river,

Wind blowing the fragrant paddies of both banks,
There is my house on the bank,
Where I can hear the usual boatman’s song
As the boat with white sail passes by.
This is my beautiful Motherland,
The land of my birth.
On this vast expanse of land,
Everywhere is beautiful scenery.

A damsel is like a flower,
That refreshes youthful mind,
Scaling heaven and earth,
Waking the slumbering mountain,
As the river changes the scenery.

This heroine Motherland
Is where I was brought up,
In this ancient land of youthful strength.

Good mountain, water and place,
That radiate tranquility and happiness.
There are good wines for friends who come,
And if there be wolves and jackals,
We greet them with our hunting rifle.

This is my big and powerful Motherland
The land of my birth.
On this vast land peace radiates!
