"I Love Beijing Tiananmen" (formerly written "I love Peking Tiananmen") (simplified Chinese: 我爱北京天安门; traditional Chinese: 我愛北京天安門; pinyin: Wǒ ài Běijīng Tiān'ānmén), is a children's song written during the Cultural Revolution of China.

History

This section needs expansion. You can help by adding to it. (September 2020)

The lyrics to the song were written by Jin Guolin, a 12-year-old student who was in 5th grade in 1970, and the composer was Jin Yueling, a 19-year-old apprentice from Shanghai Sixth Glass Factory.

This song was part of the daily routine for many primary schools. It would be sung, following "The Internationale" and "The East is Red".

The first three measures of the chorus of this song were used repeatedly as background music in Hong Kong 97, an infamous bootleg Super Famicom game released in 1995. The game, whose plot involved the transfer of sovereignty over Hong Kong in 1997, had a strong anti-Communist sentiment, and therefore, the song was used sarcastically.

Translation

I love Beijing Tiananmen,
The sun rises above Tiananmen.
The great leader Chairman Mao,
Leads all of us forward.
