Premier writes to students in devastated town on China quake's (anniversary)
"My dear children,
I have received the (album) of paintings entitled 'Beautiful Flowers' you signed and sent to me. Thank you very much.
My heart was (deeply) touched when I saw your elaborate works. They are unique and authentic depictions of what you experienced (in) that solemn and stirring earthquake-relief campaign.
You were brave enough to face the catastrophe and full of confidence and courage to surmount the difficulties; you have (stood up) in the ruins with your backs straight; and you have buried pain and great love deep in your hearts and turned them into (strength) to move forward.
Your little hearts have become even more (pure), solemn, staunch and beautiful after all the hardships; you have been aware of ways to become someone useful who can help others lead better lives, with gritty will and (through) great efforts; and you are the most beautiful flowers, which have blossomed out on this disaster-hit land, and you are the future and hope of the country and the people.
On eve of the first anniversary of the Wenchuan Earthquake, we are commemorating people, children in particular, who (lost) their lives. The best [we] can do is to do a good job in the post-disaster reconstruction and build a beautiful home.
Our country is plagued with frequent disasters, and we can only (overcome) them with a scientific attitude, practical spirit and strenuous effort, to enable people, primarily children, to live in peace, harmony and happiness.
You have expressed your memories of me and I also miss you, and I miss all the (children) in the disaster-hit areas. I love you deeply!"
