Truong Sa color

For Nguyen Hong Vinh, the poem “Color” by the famous poet Che Lan Vien, with only 4 lines, including 20 words, inspired him with the poetic idea to write the poem “Color of Truong Sa”. This place is the crystallization of many typical flower colors, symbolizing the love for the sea and islands, the nostalgia for the mainland of the navy soldiers at the sovereignty milestone, the grateful hearts of children, the elderly, men and women in all regions of the country for the land in the middle of the ocean, rolling waves day and night, weaving the immortal color of Truong Sa, the color of love and happiness bustling in the hearts of everyone, echoing the verse of Che Lan Vien: “Oh Fatherland, if we need you, I will die/ For every house, street corner, river...”.

Respectfully introduce this poem by Nguyen Hong Vinh:

TRUONG SA COLOR

How many times to Truong Sa

The poem COLOR of the Che family

Just fluttering in the heart

Flowing with melancholy:

Lily-colored happiness

Missing the color of reed flowers

The color of separation is torn.

Forgetting has no color?

Amidst the blue ocean

Red Buddhist flag

Blood soaked golden sand

Generations ago

How can I forget?

Gac Ma Island that year

64 people died

Keep the sacred land of the Fatherland!

Graves wind spread row by row

White fragrant lily

On the sovereignty milestone

Soldiers filled with nostalgia

Baby babble

Mother's figure bends like a rice plant

I'm busy from morning to noon.

Take care of yourself and do the same...

The color of time is clear.

The color of Truong Sa is present

The color of the land of nostalgia

There is your shadow morning and noon…
