Echoes of the 1989 Student Movement: Translated Poems
今天分享的是著名诗人白桦的《中国的再发现》。1989年5月的天安门广场，大学生们展开绝食抗议活动，要求当局兑现宪法许诺的民主与自由。诗人赞颂了大学生们为国为民的献身舍己精神，他们的绝食义举，让沉闷的中国浮现出崭新的形象与盼望。

Today’s poem is “China Rediscovered” by the well-known poet Bai Hua. In May 1989, college students launched a hunger strike in Tiananmen Square, demanding that the authorities fulfill the democracy and freedom promised by the Constitution. The poet praised the college students' dedication and self-sacrifice for the country and the people. Their hunger strike gave a new image and hope to a dull China.
