Heavy rain night, mother stays awake with the lamp on
Floods swept away and inundated the fields
I wonder, the lamp wonders:
Is there any restlessness in your soul?
Bare forest, rain, flood, whirlpool
Hill landslides hear mountain landslides at night
Many small villages were buried in the disaster.
How many lives have been forgotten and forgotten?
Land of long sleepless nights
Mother raised us like a grain of rice sleeping in the mud.
The fish sleeps in the toil of dirty waves
Only my mother is restless with the sad land
Only my mother has loved the land for thousands of years
Blood and bones like alluvial deposits
Many generations of people whose names and faces cannot be remembered
Had to leave in utter disaster
Land of long sleepless nights
Love the Mekong Delta, love all the way to the Red River
When the country faces the storm
People by your side overcome all storms.
