River elder sister:
江姐：
Hello!
您好！
I am Jiang Chuhan, reading " Gong Yan " this postscript, I cherish the mood with insurgent passion to decide to write down this letter, will express my deep to you respect.
我是蒋楚涵，在阅读《红岩》这本书后，我怀着激情澎湃的心情决定写下这封信，来表达我对您深深的敬意。
The banner that the glisten hook sinker across on Zhu Zhi wears, resound of the for a long time in canyon wears your sound: “ I am volunteer attend Chinese Communist ” . Wherefrom rises one day, you had a new name — communist.
竹枝上闪闪发光的镰刀锤子交叉着的旗帜，溪谷里久久回荡着您的声音：“我志愿参加中国共产党”。从那一天起，您有了一个新的名称—共产党员。
You are river elder sister, your husband goes political parties and groups help rural armed fight, and you still stay in the city. Below your leader, cheng Gang pressworks secretly in the home " push forward signs up for " . You are gone to by tone Hua Yingshan base area, but the news of sb's death that was informed the husband accidentally. Fu Zhigao mutiny, betrayed me you, the person such as Xu Yunfeng, Cheng Gang. The spy executed cruel torture to me, they a string of 1 you on housetop, sign bamboo the finger tip that nails you with hammer, 10 show Lian Xinzhi is painful, the tooth is bitten defeated a lip, you did not give out a groan however, do not speak the secret of the party anyhow. In the hour that face up to the test, the life that uses oneself will maintain the chasteness of the party. Face the torment of cruel torture calmly, cold water spills you over and over wake, they are not clear to beat of communist “ cruel corporal punishment it is too little test! Bamboo does bamboo prod, iron and steel makes the will of the communist! ” enemy cannot get a thing from body of other Party member, in your —— on body of a female communist, cannot get likewise. Although they from traitor mouth, know you had made sanded magnetism division appoint secretary, the likelihood holds the position of more responsible job after go to the countryside, know lots and lots of underground cue that they yearn for to know, but a bit of beat of cruel corporal punishment cannot make,you start to talk. The person of complete jail is caring you, worrying about your safety, every prison house delivers condolatory letter and poem, you encourage everybody the struggle continues.
您就是江姐，党派你您的丈夫去支援农村武装斗争，而您仍然留在城市。在您的领导下，成岗在家中秘密印刷《挺进报》。你被调去华蓥山根据地，但意外得知了丈夫的死讯。甫志高叛变，出卖了我您、许云峰、成岗等人。特务对我实行了酷刑，他们把你吊在屋顶上，用铁锤将竹签钉入你的指尖，十指连心之痛，牙齿咬破了嘴唇，你却没有发出一丝呻吟，无论如何不说出党的机密。在接受考验的时刻，用自己的生命来保持党的纯洁。平静的面对酷刑的折磨，冷水一遍又一遍地把你泼醒，他们不明白对于共产党员“毒刑拷打是太小的考验！竹签子是竹子做的，共产党员的意志是钢铁做的！”敌人从其他党员身上得不到东西，在您——一个女共产党员身上，同样得不到。尽管他们从叛徒口里，知道您做过沙磁区委书记，下乡以后可能担任更负责的工作，了解许许多多他们渴望知道的地下线索，可是毒刑拷打丝毫不能使你开口。全监狱的人都关心着你，担心着你的安危，每个牢房都送来慰问信和诗篇，您鼓励大家斗争下去。
Below your leader, the comrades in the jail establish a connection gradually with subterranean party. Liberation army speed plain, kuomintang decides secret punish communist, you from guard member over there be informed “1949 year on October 1, chairman Mao Zedong held water to People's Republic of China of whole world declare in Beijing. China person writes a composition civilian republican ensign is the Five-Star Red Flag, flying in Tian An Men. ” , our country held water! You are cheering in a low voice. Somebody offers, you should have one side red flag! I you took the red flag of collect carefully, appear at the moment in everybody when the red flag when, a few are taking the hand of needlework to surround. Someone says centrally of embroider of a Venus, resplendent, indicative party. 4 little bits are placed in all directions, motherland earth, a light, liberate simultaneously. Be in charge of you not to know pattern of the Five-Star Red Flag today, but you pass blazing heart however, oneself boundless and yearning gift the motherland. Burning with righteous indignation, constant love, happy passion, place entirely go up in needlework, your stitch my a gleam of, stitch a gleam of is knitted beautiful an ablaze Venus. In everybody the request falls, you had received the Five-Star Red Flag, tremble with the wind, 5 Venus, flutter as the red flag immediately, you say loudly: “ lets a red flag insert each inches of land of the motherland, also insert into us this prison house. Dawn is before beck, the person's heart as the red flag flying reach distant place, as if, overflowed long night to become the past, people smashed chains, on the free land that stands in the motherland. Be in however that day in the evening, the spy will carry a person, say to let you and Li Qing bamboo change white residence. Understood completely in your heart, at the moment your unusual calm, not excited, do not have fear and distress more, dawn is before, had seen dawn, this is how many person's yearning hour, at the moment heart of my whole body was full of hope and happiness experience. Sun Mingxia does not abandon fasten with your path, you tell her softly: If “ needs to be ideal sacrifice of communism, our everybody should, also can accomplish — face not to become angry the heart does not beat. Of ” enemy slaughter shifted to an earlier date, you have not enough time to attended escape from prison to struggle, you are beautiful Jiang secret slaughters the first batch of valiant underdog of the plan, but the victory is to belong to us, belong to our party!
在您的领导下，监狱中同志们与地下党渐渐建立起联系。解放军快进川了，国民党决定秘密制裁共产党员，您们从看守员那里得知“1949年10月1日，毛泽东主席在北京向全世界宣告中华人民共和国成立了。中华人作文民共和国国旗是五星红旗，飘扬在天安门。”啊，我们的国家成立了！您们低声欢呼着。有人提议，您们要有一面红旗呀！我您们把珍藏的红旗拿了出来，当红旗在大家眼前出现时，几只拿着针线的手围了上来。有人说一颗金星绣在中央，光芒四射，象征着党。四颗小星摆在四方，祖国大地，一片光明，一齐解放。今管您们并不知道五星红旗图案，但你们却通过炽热的心，把自己的无穷向往赋予祖国。热血沸腾着，把坚贞的爱，把欢乐的激情，全部寄托在针线上，你一针我一线，一针一线织秀出闪亮的金星。在大家请求下，您接过五星红旗，迎风一抖，五颗金星，立刻随着红旗飞舞，你高声说：“让红旗插遍祖国的每一寸土地，也插进我们这座牢房。黎明在眼前招手，人的心随着红旗飘扬到远方，仿佛，漫漫长夜成了过去，人们粉碎了枷锁，自由的站在祖国的土地上。然而就在那天晚上，特务来提人，说让您和李青竹转移到白公馆。您心里全明白了，此刻您异常的平静，没有激动，更没有恐惧和悲哀，黎明就在眼前，已经看见曙光了，这是多少人向往的时刻，此刻我全身心充满了希望与幸福的感受。孙明霞不舍的与您道别，您轻声地告诉她：“如果需要为共产主义的理想牺牲，我们每个人都应该，也可以做到—脸不变色心不跳。”敌人的屠杀提前了，您们来不及参加越狱斗争了，您们都是美蒋秘密屠杀计划的第一批英勇的牺牲者，但是胜利是属于我们，属于我们的党！
Communist this beautiful name, the collectivistic liability that brings you and us truth of tenacious and castiron, pursuit, face death unflinchingly takes on.
共产党员这个美丽的名字，带给您和我们顽强不屈、追求真理、视死如归的集体主义责任担当。
Your's sincerely
此致
With high respect!
敬礼！
