FORWARD RISE
(to be released on 12 February 2027)
In the stillness of night, thunder rises through the air,
War cries echo wild as warriors gather everywhere.
Shadows lining mountains, marching by the river’s side,
Smoke and swirling clouds around them — forward, rise!
On this battlefield, the spirit of Vietnam ignites,
A thousand hearts united, burning fierce into the night.
Vietnam stands eternal — strike the invaders down!
Warriors charging forward, shaking heaven, shaking ground.
Blood runs through the valleys, where the clouds and waters flow,
Rising like a storm — where it leads, we do not know.
Through the drifting wind, their shadows glide with silent might,
Sworn to crush the cruel invaders, calling all to rise and fight.
On this sacred land of Vietnam, heroes stand forever strong,
Bodies offered, hearts unbroken — to the homeland they belong.
Hear the drums, hear the thunder,
Feel the earth begin to shake.
Warriors rising from the shadows,
For the homeland’s honor’s sake.
Vietnam stands eternal — strike the invaders down!
Warriors charging forward, shaking heaven, shaking ground.
Blood runs through the valleys, where the clouds and waters flow,
Rising like a storm — where it leads, we do not know.
