这里陈列着军刀、长枪、机枪等
是男孩子们喜欢的玩具
可在若干年前
竟落在侵略者的手里
成为戗害人的利器

多么庞大的数字——35万
手拉起手，长度是南京至上海的一个来回
这么多的人，竟然全部好似付之一炬

从1937年12月到1938年2月初
历史的长河里可以忽略的六个星期                                                                                                                                                                却让这么多鲜活的生命瞬间老去                                                                                                                                                                     上到年逾古稀的老者                                                                                                                                                                                      下到嗷嗷嗷待哺的婴孩                                                                                                                                                                                 都不能幸免                                                               

一座历史名城、六朝古都                                                                                                                                                                              瞬间成了人间地狱                                                                                                                                                                                        护城河的红水吸引了全世界的目光                                                                                                                                                                 军枪上还残留着黑褐色的血斑                                                                                                                                                                       血的记忆无法抹去                                                            

日积月累的风化                                                                                                                                                                                           红色的热血已经结成黑褐色的痂                                                                                                                                                                    历史的履迹如此清晰地留下

万人坑、血泪河                                                                                                                                                                                           35万同胞的生命在血与火中燃尽                                                                                                                                                                    似在无声地哭诉
一旦战争到来，人之生命、弱如蝼蚁、不堪一击
一旦地上的火燃起，只剩下“万户萧疏鬼唱歌”的凄凉

  历史不会忘记                                                                                                                     
35万个生命已经集体为侵略者的任性买单                                                                                                                                                      历史告诉我们：和平是最美丽的花                                                                                                                                                                  落后只怕就要挨打                                                                                                                                                                                        东方雄狮被扼住了喉咙                                                                                                                                                                                 醒来时，它会更加放声地怒吼
