中国的问题是农民
中国诗歌的问题也是农民
这是一个十分严重的问题
这是一帮信仰基督教的农民
问题的严重性在于
他们种植的作物
天堂不收 俗人不食

 

 

Report on the Inspec­tion of Chinese

 

Com­rades
The Chi­nese prob­lem is the prob­lem of peas­ants
The prob­lem of Chi­nese poet­ry is also that of peas­ants
This is a very seri­ous prob­lem
This is a group of Chris­t­ian peas­ants
Whose goods
Are not want­ed
Either in heav­en
Or on earth
