Hey! My hometown Duyen Hai

The day you were born,

The roaring Ba Dong Sea lulls him to sleep,

As he grew up, he appreciated the forest and the sea more and more.

Precious resources of the homeland,

But ironically, the people of the Coast are still poor.

Our fathers persevered to cling to the sea,

The bottom of the sea and the fishing boats,

Has not created a life-changing breakthrough.

Then war came,

Bombs and artillery… destroyed villages.

Ghost houses, clinics… must hide in sand dunes,

Duyen Hai Forest is steadfast, through two seasons of resistance,

Only hardships test heroes,

Coastal people face all difficulties,

Stand up and defend every inch of land,

Not an inch gone, not a glass left,

For the majestic, indomitable, and steadfast Duyen Hai,

Day of peace , rebuilding the homeland,

Still the ocean waves, forests, sun and wind and sand,

Duyen Hai rises, changes and innovates,

Today has really changed my life,

Electricity, roads, schools, stations... are becoming more and more spacious.

Sun, wind… create new sources of energy,

Trade, services, tourism ... develop together,

Duyen Hai Town - urban dream - come true,

People's lives are improving day by day,

Every night, electricity lights up between the two mouths of the Mekong River,

The more we honor the Ba Dong lighthouse of the past,

That's how my hometown Duyen Hai is now.

I am very happy to welcome you back.
