在二十、三十年代,有一支歌流行于国内国外,不仅知识界唱,广大的工农群众和小孩子也普遍在唱,这就是《锄头舞歌》。歌词是我国伟大的人民教育家、为民主事业奋斗终生的战士陶行知先生(1891—1946)写的。据有关资料记载:当时在南京北固乡一带,每到初夏农民割麦插秧时,以及秋末冬初割稻刈草时,在田野里常弥漫着一种悠长的山歌调子。1927 In the 1920s and 1930s, there was a popular song at home and abroad. It was not only sung by the intellectuals but also by the broad masses of workers and peasants and children. This is the “hoe dance song.” The lyrics are great educators of our country, written by Mr. Tao Xingzhi (1891-1946), a lifelong fighter for the democratic cause. According to relevant records: At the time of the Beigu rural area in Nanjing, when early summer peasants cut wheat and transplanted rice and mowed mowing mowed rice in early autumn and winter, there was a long folk tune in the fields. 1927
