"There's an old man walking barefoot again."
Wearing Nung traditional clothing,
He held a rattan stick in his hand.
He had a smokeless pipe in his mouth.
His long beard was both white and black.
His limbs are as nimble as a young man's...
The old man smiled and waved to the person waiting to greet him.
...
He spoke, and the people heard every word clearly.
"We want the revolution to succeed quickly!"
We must unite like a bundle of chopsticks...!
(Old Man's Soldier - Nong Quoc Chan)
