Lyrics of Dong Wenhua's Oriental dawn

For whom

For whom? For the harvest of autumn

For the return of wild geese in spring

Full of blood, singing youth without regret

I don't know when my comrades will return

Who are you for whom

When will you return, my comrade in arms

Who are you for whom

My brothers and sisters don't cry

Who is the most beautiful and who is the most tired

My countrymen, my comrades in arms

My brothers and sisters

Mud covered trouser legs

Sweat drenched the back

I don't know who you are

But I know who you are for

For whom? For the harvest of autumn

For the return of wild geese in spring

Full of blood, singing youth without regret

I don't know when my comrades will return

Who are you for whom

When will your comrades return to me

Who are you for whom

My brothers and sisters don't cry

Who is the most beautiful and who is the most tired

My countrymen, my comrades in arms

My brothers and sisters

Who are you for whom

My comrades in arms, why are you going back

Who are you for whom

My brothers and sisters don't cry

Who is the most beautiful and who is the most tired

My countrymen, my comrades in arms

My brothers and sisters

sisters
