Vietnamese Lyrics
Doan ve quoc quan
Doan Quan Viet-Nam Di
Doàn quân Vietnam di
Chung lòng cuu quoc,
Bu’óc chân don vang trên du’óng gap ghenh xa.
Co in máu chien thang mang hon nu’óc
Súng ngoài xa chen khúc quân hanh ca.
Du’õóng vinh quang xây xác quân thù
Thang gian lao, cùng nhau lap chien khu.
Vi nhân dân chien dau không ngung
Tien mau ra sa tru’óng.
Tien lên! Cùng tien lên!
Nuoc non Vietnam ta vung ben.
Doàn quân Vietnam di
Sao vàng phap phoi,
Dát giong nòi que hu’óng qua noi lam than.
Cung chung suc phan dau xây doi moi
Dung deu len gông xích ta dap tan.
Tu bao lâu ta nuot cam hon
Quyet hy sinh, doi ta tu’oi tham hón.
Vi nhân dân chien dau không ngung
Tien mau ra sa tru’óng.
Tien lên! Cùng tien lên!
Nuoc non Vietnam ta vung ben.
English Translation
March to the Front
Soldiers of Vietnam, we go forward,
With the one will to save our Fatherland
Our hurried steps are sounding on the long and arduous road
Our flag, red with the blood of victory, bears the spirit of our country
The distant rumbling of the guns mingles with our marching song.
The path to glory passes over the bodies of our foes.
Overcoming all hardships, together we build our resistance bases.
Ceaselessly for the people’s cause we struggle,
Hastening to the battle field!
Forward! All together advancing!
Our Vietnam is strong eternal.
Soldiers of Vietnam, we go forward,
The gold star of our flag in the wind
Leading our people, our native land, out of misery and suffering
Let us join our efforts in the fight for the building of a new life.
Let us stand up and break our chains.
For too long have we swallowed our hatred
Let us keep ready for all sacrifices and our life will be radiant.
Ceaselessly for the people’s cause we struggle,
Hastening to the battlefield!
Forward! All together advancing!
Our Vietnam is strong eternal.
