For My Children<\/strong><\/p>\n

It’s been 28 years this April
\nAway from my home town, in exile, and in rage
\nDeep in my heart, like wrinkles on my face
\nAre marks of time, hardship, and pain <\/p>\n

This April, it’s been 28 years
\nMy hair’s gray, my vision fades
\nThe way home is long and dark
\nBlood will soon dry out to the last drop in my heart.<\/p>\n

My children have grown big and tall
\nMore fluent in English than in their mother’s tongue
\nDear beloved children, have you ever known my worries,
\nWho will help bring a new future to our beloved country?<\/p>\n

Phuc-Quoc means Rebuilding and Restoring
\nReal democracy to a country of thousand years.
\nThough born and growing up in the United States
\nYou still carry our legendary Dragon and Fairy heritage<\/p>\n

Hoai-Huong means Nostalgic
\nEach day you grow more beautiful, more angelique
\nEach time I call your name I feel homesick
\nLost in the horizon, my way to return home..<\/p>\n

And Bao-Quoc means Preserving our Country
\nWith its own beauty and natural resources.
\nAlso dream and long for the same
\nOf two plus millions Viet people in exile<\/p>\n

My body’s tired, but my mind’s clear.
\nI’m walking by your side, and still dreaming without fear.
\nBeloved children, keep faith and preserve my dream.
\nThrough uncertainty of tomorrow, impermanence of things.<\/p>\n
