Danang

All colonial domination

Chose Danang a starting station

Thought they would stay forever

In the land of sea and river

They have failed to discover

Inner secrets of bamboo

Hidden in the water mountain

And the grass of hyven pass

It remained to them alas

A taboo.

In Danang

Was in tune

With commune

Of love I sang,

To stay apart

From charming wife

For thirty years

For sake of fight

And be so calm

Rang a bell

You can tell

Of great alarm.

Hanoi, November 1975
