THE BALLAD OF HO CHI MINH

Far away across the ocean,
Far beyond the sea's eastern rim,
Lives a man who is father of the Indo-Chinese people,
And his name it is Ho Chi Minh.

Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minh.
Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minh.

From Viet back to the Saigon Delta
From the mountains and plains below
Young and old workers, peasants and the toiling tenant farmers
Fight for freedom with Uncle Ho.

Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minh.
Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minh.

Now Ho Chi Minh was a deep sea sailor
He served his time out on the seven seas
Work and hardship were part of his early education
Exploitation his ABC.

Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minh.
Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minh.

Now Ho Chi Minh came home from sailing
And he looked out on his native land
Saw the want and the hunger of the Indo-Chinese people
Foreign soldiers on every hand.

Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minh.
Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minh.

Now Ho Chi Minh went to the mountains
And he trained a determined band
Heroes all, sworn to liberate the Indo-Chinese people
Drive invaders from the land.

Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minh.
Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minh.

Fourteen men became a hundred
A hundred thousand and Ho Chi Minh
Forged and tempered the army of the Indo-Chinese people
Freedom's Army of Viet Minh.

Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minh.
Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minh.

Every soldier is a farmer
Comes the evening and he grabs his hoe
Comes the morning he swings his rifle on his shoulder
This the army of Uncle Ho.

Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minh.
Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minh.

From the mountains and the jungles
From the ricelands and the Plain of Reeds
March the men and the women of the Indo-Chinese Army
Planting freedom with vict'ry seeds.

Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minh.
Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minh.

From Viet back to the Saigon Delta
Marched the armies of Viet Minh
And the wind stirs the banners of the Indo-Chinese people
Peace and freedom and Ho Chi Minh.

Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minh.
Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minh.
BALLADEN OM HO CHI MINH

Långt borta, bortom oceanen.
Långt bortom havets östra strand
fanns en man som var ledare för folket i Vietnam
och hans namn det var Ho Chi Minh

Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minh
Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minh

Ho Chi Minh var sjöman på haven
han levde länge borta från sitt land
Han såg imperialismens härjningar
utsugning och förtryck

Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minh
Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minh

Ho Chi Minh studerade Marx och Lenin
byggde upp Partiet som visar vägen fram
Dom blev hjältar i det vietnamesiska folkets kamp
för ett enat och fritt Vietnam.

Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minh
Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minh

Fjorton män blev till hundra
blev hundratusen och Ho Chi Minh
han ledde och enade Vietnams starka folkarmé
för landets befrielse

Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minh
Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minh

Varje bonde är en soldat
när kvällen kommer tar han sitt gevär
Om dagen jobbar han på fälten
detta är folkets motståndskraft

Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minh
Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minh

Från alla berg och djungler
från risfälten och slätterna
marcherar män och kvinnor i befrielsearmén
Folket Segrar där de drar fram

Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minh
Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minh
