Vietnamese National Anthem: Tiến Quân Ca
Written and composed by Văn Cao.
Armies of Vietnam, forward!
With one single determination to save our Fatherland,
Our hurried steps resound on the long and arduous road.
Our flag, red with the blood of victory, bears the spirit of the country.
The distant rumbling of the guns mingles with our marching song.
The path to glory is built by the bodies of our foes.
Overcoming all hardship, together we build our resistance bases.
Ceaselessly fight for our people,
Let us hasten to the battlefield!,
Onward! All together advancing!
For one eternal Vietnam.
Armies of Vietnam, forward!
The gold star afluttering
Leading the people of our native land out of misery and suffering.
Let us join our efforts in the fight to build a new life.
Stand up and break these chains.
For too long have we swallowed our hatred.
Sacrifice our lives for a better future.
Ceaselessly fight for our people,
Let us hasten to the battlefield!,
Onward! All together advancing!
For one eternal Vietnam.
