Alas, what a nation
Once stricken by impoverishment
Overcome by failings
Ridden by sufferings
And trampled by turbulence
Ah, what a country
Today filled by riches
Marked with successes
Possessed by happiness
And promised with prosperity
Such nation is the Chinese all the greater
Of which I, albeit abroad, am a lucky and proud member
This country is China but not any other
For which I have so profound a love for ever and ever
So before you, my Chinese and my China
I wish you a longevity from the bottom of my heart
And before others, such as America and Canada
I pronounce me a Chinese coming from the Great China
啊，这是一个怎样的民族!
曾经是何等的积贫，
又是多么的积弱，
曾饱尝何等的苦难啊，
更受罪于多少动荡和不安!
啊,这又是个怎样的国家!
如今她拥有无尽的财富，
更自豪于她连绵的成功，
看她是多么的欢心啊，
还胸怀无限的憧憬和希望!
这个民族啊就是越发伟大的中华，
是我海外游子深感自豪和骄傲的我的中华，
这个国家啊绝非任何他国，
她是我永远热爱挚爱敬爱的我的中国。
所以，在您面前，中华，中国，
我衷心祝愿您永远繁荣昌盛万寿无疆;
所以，在他民他国面前，无论是美国，还是加国，
我的民族和祖国的表白将是更加的激越和铿锵
