Lyrics
Simplified Chinese
我的家在东北松花江上，
那里有森林煤矿，
还有那满山遍野的大豆高粱。
我的家在东北松花江上，
那里有我的同胞，还有那衰老的爹娘。
“九.一八”，“九.一八”！从那个悲惨的时候，
“九.一八”，“九.一八”！从那个悲惨的时候，
脱离了我的家乡，抛弃那无尽的宝藏，
流浪！流浪！整日价在关内，流浪！
哪年哪月，才能够回到我那可爱的故乡？
哪年哪月，才能够收回我那无尽的宝藏？
爹娘啊，爹娘啊！什么时候才能欢聚在一堂？
Traditional Chinese
我的家在東北松花江上，
那裏有森林煤礦，
還有那滿山遍野的大豆高粱。
我的家在東北松花江上，
那裏有我的同胞，還有那衰老的爹娘。
“九.一八”，“九.一八”！從那個悲慘的時候，
“九.一八”，“九.一八”！從那個悲慘的時候，
脫離了我的家鄉，拋棄那無盡的寶藏，
流浪！流浪！整日價在關內，流浪！
哪年哪月，才能夠回到我那可愛的故鄉？
哪年哪月，才能夠收回我那無盡的寶藏？
爹娘啊，爹娘啊！什麽時候才能歡聚在一堂？

I've left my homeland, discarded the endless treasure.
Roam, Roam, the whole day I roam inside the Great Wall.
When can I go back to my homeland?

My mother, my father, when can we gather together?
