In the heart of China, a leader stood tall,
Mao Zedong, a hero for one and all.
A gallant soul for the oppressed, he'd fight,
Guiding the proletariat with wisdom and might.
On this day, we honour his birth,
A beacon of hope for the global hearth.
The oppressed found strength in his vision,
A true hero, revered with deep admiration.
Through trials and triumphs, he paved the way,
For a future where justice would hold sway.
Mao's legacy, immortal and grand,
Inspires us to strive for a better land.
In the tapestry of history, his name is woven,
A revolutionary spirit, eternally unbroken.
Happy birthday, Chairman Mao, we say,
Your ideals and courage forever in our stay.
