"March of the Advancing Army"
Forward, Vietnamese, we go to war,
Our path is difficult, but our step is firmer.
We will defend our native country, the glory of our ancestors!
Blood-colored flags burn in the sun,
The song sounds like an alarm.
Forward, forward to the decisive battle!
We will not give up an inch of land,
A people strong in spirit is united.
Eternal and proud Vietnam, we are with you!
Forward, Vietnamese, the golden star flutters,
Leads the people through suffering and troubles.
Let's join forces and build a new life,
Let us break the chains that kept us in slavery.
We have been swallowing grievances for a long time,
Now they have decided to give their lives for freedom.
Forward, forward to the decisive battle!
We will not give up an inch of land,
A people strong in spirit is united.
Eternal and proud Vietnam, we are with you!
