THE WARLORDS CLASH

--to the tune of Ching Ping Yueh

Autumn 1929

Sudden veer of wind and rain

Showering misery through the land,

The warlords are clashing anew--

Yet another Golden Millet Dream.

Red banners leap over the Ting River

Straight to Lungyen and Shanghang.

We have reclaimed part of the golden bowl

And land is being shared out with a will.
