我第一次听到田汉同志的名字,是抗日战争爆发后,在初中读书的时候。那时,抗日救亡运动的烈火烧遍全国。课余,我参加了一个宣传抗日的歌咏队。节假日,我们到工厂、集会场所演出,演唱的第一首歌是《义勇军进行曲》。一唱起:“起来!不愿做奴隶的人们,……”全场立刻沸腾起来了。之后,我们这个歌咏队为了更好地发挥宣传鼓动作用,又演起话剧来了。演的第一个话剧是《回春之曲》,也是田汉同志的作品。 The first time I heard Comrade Tian Han’s name was the time when I was studying in junior high school after the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War. At that time, the fire of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Movement burned throughout the country. After school, I attended a singing team that propagated anti-Japanese. On holidays, we went to the factory and the venue to perform. The first song to be sung was “The March of the Volunteers.” Sing: “Get up! Unwilling to be slaves, ... ...” The audience immediately boiled. Later, in order to give better play to the agitation, our singing team played the drama again. The first drama played is “the return of the song”, but also Comrade Tian Han’s work.
