作品原文 陈毅 《记遗言》 革命流血不流泪， 生死寻常无怨尤。 碧血长江流不尽， 一言九鼎重千秋。 英文译文 Her Last Words Chen Yi "For th' Revolution, blood, not tears, is shed!" (So the dying heroine, gasping, said.)

作品原文 陈毅 《秋菊》 秋菊能傲霜， 风霜重重恶。 本性能耐寒， 风霜其奈何？ 英文译文 The Autumn Chrysanthemums Chen Yi Autumn chrysanthemums scorn the frost, Though wind and frost rage oft and again. If by nature they're made cold-proof, How can wind and frost bring harm then?
