  • Sung by Han Lei, composed by Qi Jianbo, and with lyrics written by Fan Xiaobin, "The Vast Heaven and Earth" (浩浩乾坤), serves as the opening to the first episode of "The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom" (太平天国), a Chinese historical TV epic released in 2000.
    The series tells the legendary story of Hong Xiuquan, the self-proclaimed brother of Jesus Christ who lead a revolutionary force, established a theocratic absolute monarchy in China, and started the deadliest civil war in world history.
    The map shows the provinces and territories controlled by the Taiping rebels, along with the banner that was flown in the kingdom.

    Small note here: the verses “one breath of life, rare to fight once” is meant to imply that people could only live once, and that it is hard, if not impossible to get it back. Correct me if I was wrong, but I think this means that we should cherish every moment in our lives, as it was implied in the next verses: “a road to life and death (which is more accurately defined as there is only one road in life) a glass of wine (which is more accurately defined as raise up the glass of wine - as a celebration)

    • @zoezorman

      The lyrics themselves are "wounds that bleed do not shed tears, flagpoles that stand do not kneel; the clenched fist shall not let go, us pawns, even in peril, would never retreat. All live for their honour, it's time to give fight once; the path is one in life and death, a toast to our union and martyrdom! (repeat) How come history be so cruel as to name the triumphant great and the defeated despicable? Mighty heaven and earth shall celebrate our deeds."

  • @zhuyh97
    @zhuyh97 9 месяцев назад +46

    This is my translation
    The wound is bleeding, but the warrior never sheds tears.
    The flag pole is in the hand, so the warrior never bend knees.
    The fist is held tight, and the warrior never lose hands.
    The warrior will never retreat, just like the "soldier" (note: in chinese chess) once pass the creek.
    A man lives for his dignity, cherish the only chance fighting for it!
    On the road from life to death, let's toast for the reunion and farewell!
    Don't judge a hero by his successes and failures, the vast universe is his monument.
    Translating the lyrics (and poems) inevitably changes the grammar and adds extra words to make it a reasonable sentence, but I believe this conveys the idea better.

    For those of you who speaks other languages and/or are confused by the subtitle, here's another interpretation for it.
    Gashing wound bleeds not tears.
    Flag poles bend not their knees.
    Clenched fists do not let go.
    Crossing pawn knows no retreat.
    To live is to have breath of courage, seldom there's a chance at glory.
    Life or death at the crossroad, raise a cup to lost and gain.
    Tis neither victories nor defeats that makes a hero, the sky and land will remember.
