The Dawn of the Country

our ancestors

Born from the egg sac of a Fairy-Dragon

Brothers together go up the mountain, down to the sea

Muddy feet, muddy hands

Leveling mountains and opening rivers to form the Country

Long coastline welcomes the wind and waves of the East Sea

A living space,

A cultural space

Defining borders with tears, blood and bones

 

The Dawn

Life is very simple

Like a tree branch, a blade of grass

Like mountains, rivers

No hatred yet

Only love,

Building the Hung King era

Opening National History.

Van Lang people are hard-working and thrifty.

Even though my hands are calloused in the rice fields

But how skillfully pounding flour and making sticky rice cakes

Arrange green dong leaves to wrap banh chung for Tet

The beginning of the Vietnamese homeland.

 

Just like that over time

Population increased thanks to rice and potatoes.

People grew up by making bronze plowshares.

Making bronze arrows to protect mountains and rivers

Keep the lullabies to nourish the soul

Create the cultural roots of the country.

                  

* * *

Hung King era - a glorious time.

The sound of bronze drums beats the rhythm of happy days

Contains the rich aroma of ripe rice season

Lullaby of peach blossoms blooming in spring

So gentle, when another tone is needed

A thousand years later, the enemy's hair turns gray.

 

Oh, the fate of the country is like the shifting stars, things change

The stage of history revolves

The name of the country Van Lang has a period.

by the well of destiny

Thuc Phan proclaimed himself King

Name of the country Au Lac

Thanks to the hands of the people like gods

Building Co Loa capital

Spiral walls

Traces of pride and bitterness for thousands of years

The country of Au Lac sank unjustly.

in the love story of My Chau-Trong Thuy

Goose feather sprinkled with sugar

mark the pain of the country.

The first time losing water with Panyu

Crossbow Lesson

Thousands of years of storms

Cannot be like My Chau who loved passionately at that time

Making the country dependent for a thousand years

Never let the goose feather fall again

From mainland to homeland islands

The power of the people's hearts is like a magic crossbow.

The eternal plan to protect the country is to take care of the people.

     

***

An ancient legend - Saint Giong

It's mine, not like Greece or Rome.

Superman

Neither above nor outside

Very close to the people like bamboo fences and corn seeds

Still have mother and relatives village

Raised by the people, helped by the people.

Stand up with people power

Destroy the Yin invaders and save the country.

Win.

To heaven

Indifferent to fame, power and wealth

Oh, the mentality of the people from ancient times

bright star, clear

The Story of Saint Giong - A Poem of Personality!

Thousands of years, still teaching many people

The thousand-year-old fragrant mirror shines forever

(Excerpt from Sound of the Earth, Hanoi 2010)
