Visit Ben Duoc

The yellow sun dyes the drifting clouds
The stork wings are busy carrying the sunset
Deep blue river with surging waves
Visit Ben Duoc, the soul of Cu Chi

Deep earth, whispering tunnels
Listen in sobbing the army marching in waves
Sacred temple of heroic stele
The glorious iron and copper citadel of the past

The afternoon wind rustles the sparse leaves
In the incense smoke, someone was here somewhere.
The old story is full of tears
Painful bombs and bullets rumble
Brown soil, iron core, yellow liver
Village in the ground, ground in the village

Now the flowers are golden
The paved village road leads back home smoothly.
Electric lights illuminate the country roads
Mother's footsteps welcome her child home when the rain stops
How to say it all?
The merit engraved on the stele is still not enough.
The incense I burn today
With a little gratitude
Find the clear Ben Duoc
Forever in memory of the times you were away
