To the young people of Vietnam!

Don’t succumb to self-pleasing addiction.

Bond yourselves into an association,

Train yourselves to avenge your nation’s loss.

The national saviour’ll have a historical gloss,

Adopt the spirit of Japanese soldiers.

They are their nation’s utter lovers,

Battlefield risks will never thwart them!

Don’t keep burrowing in your dreams,

For our people to forever live in calamity.

Gunshots in Asia resound loudly,

We ourselves must struggle for freedom.

Don’t be feeble clinging to alcohol and form (1),

Lest you should release cornered enemies.

Extraordinary are young people’s duties,

To love their race is their top priority.

How can they now sit watching the rivalry,

Of the tiger and dragon on our land.

As the tiger lost its home’s helping hand,

Is it sure that the dragon will let it go?

Thus, you must back to back assault,

With your forces, let’s bring on their defeat.

Show them your brave man’s spirit,

Wield the Dragon-Spring sword to kill disloyals.

The nation has suffered repeated upheavals,

It owes as many rescues to heroes’ mettle.

They sacrifice for their country as the loyal,

With their iron-clad devotion and valiance.

The Vietnamese are of Hong Bang descent,

Never let yourselves fall into extinction.
