著名歌曲《东方红》,已是彪炳中华民族史册的重要文化瑰宝。但是长期以来,它的词作者一直署名为“李有源词”。那么,这首歌曲究竟是怎样产生的呢?真正的词作者又是谁呢?笔者得幸与我国当代著名诗人、吉林大学教授公木多有接触。在1992年7月2日和17日两次接触和谈话中,公木向我介绍了这首歌曲产生的来龙去脉。 The famous song “Dongfanghong” is an important cultural treasures that show the history of the Chinese nation. But for a long time, its author has been signed as “Li Youyuan”. So, what exactly is this song produced? Who is the true word writer? I was fortunate enough to have contact with the famous contemporary poet in our country and Professor Gong Mu of Jilin University. During the two contacts and talks on July 2 and July 17, 1992, Gong Mu introduced me to the ins and outs of the song.
