[Verse 1]
G C D
Come listen young comrades, a hist'ry we'll tell
Em G C G
Of the glorious struggle to build CPC (ML)
G C D
Oh it is the story of how a class continues
Em G C G
To fight battle after battle to smash the old and build the new
[Chorus]
D C G
And we won another battle, see the enemy fall
D C G
But don't it seem paltry and don't it seem small
G C D
Still the enemy besets us and blocks our advance
Em G C G
But the times cry out, "Here's the rose, now dance!"
[Verse 2]
G C D
In the early 60's against increasing exploitation
Em G C G
The people rose up to change the situation
G C D
Despite revisionist betrayal of this massive upsurge
Em G C G
A new quality in small quantity from the movement emerged.
[Chorus]
D C G
And we won another battle, see the enemy fall
D C G
But don't it seem paltry and don't it seem small
G C D
Still the enemy besets us and blocks our advance
Em G C G
But the times cry out, "Here's the rose, now dance!"
[Verse 3]
G C D
They said "Don't turn off the people by making a scene,
Em G C G
Or you'll isolate the left from the mainstream."
G C D
But we boldly shouted, "Down with imperialism,
Em G C G
Down with the lackeysm, down with revisionism!"
[Chorus]
D C G
And we won another battle, see the enemy fall
D C G
But don't it seem paltry and don't it seem small
G C D
Still the enemy besets us and blocks our advance
Em G C G
But the times cry out, "Here's the rose, now dance!"
[Verse 4]
G C D
There were still lots of questions, but we never shied
Em G C G
For we had Marxism-Leninism, an invincible guide
G C D
The trend of unity of Marxist-Leninists irresistably spread
