J'aimerais dédier cette version française à notre jeune héro Viet Khang.
Où est mon Vietnam
Vietnam où es tu? Y'a plus d'un demi siècle
Et je connais vraiment
Quelle vie! quand la guerre est finie
La mère patrie, souffrante de voir la vie
L'un est pauvre, l'autre affamé
Malhonnêtes, sont riches et puissants
Maintenant, Vietnam, est-ce que tu existes?
Et les chinois ravagent dans notre pays
Dans nos mers , il y a tant d'innocents
Qui sont tués par les meurtriers chinois
Nous, citoyens du Vietnam
Peut-on ignorer l'invasion?
Nos frères, nos soeurs, répondons à la patrie
Femmes, hommes, jeunes, vieux, sans souci
Levons nos bras, allons tout droit
Chassons la Chine aussi les traîtres
Qui vendaient Vietnam

Faites attention aux gens qui vous invitent à écrire vos commentaires ou télécharger MP3 à/de leur siteweb. ce sont des pièges montées pour localiser l'adresse IP des supporteurs de Vietkhang.
J'apprécie tous les commentaires - bons ou mauvais. Mais je ne vais pas laisser les malfaiteurs utilisant ma page pour des mauvaises intentions. Antoine Figali

M. Antoine, cette chanson est plus difficile à chanter comparant avec la chanson "qui es-tu". Je pense que vous l'avez réussie quand même. Je vous remercie pour tout ce que vous avez fait pour Vietnam.

@toiyeutiengnuoctoi1 2 Merci de votre soutien et vous avez bien raison ! Le choix de paroles n'était pas facile. Le rythme et la musique sont typiquement vietnamiens je crois. J'ai fait mon mieux possible dans le but d'exposer la détention arbitraire de cet artiste par le régime communiste vietnamien. Que Vietkhang soit libéré!

@MegaComments123 @MegaComments123 Thank you for your appreciation. With my limited English skills, I am not sure when/if I will be able to have an English version. However, do not worry. If I do not, I am sure someone else will. If the Vietnamese communist regime has tried to stop Viet Khang from expressing his patriotism inside Vietnam in his native tongue, many others have united to voice on his behalf in Vietnamese, French, English and others in many countries. His voice will be LOUD & CLEAR

Việt Nam tôi đâu? - Where is my Vietnam? - Việt Khang
I would like to dedicate this English version to our young hero Viet Khang.
Who is Viet Khang?
Viet Khang -- born Vo Minh Tri - is a young Vietnamese songwriter and singer in his thirties. He was arrested by the Vietnamese communist authorities on December 23rd, 2011 for simply having composed and sang two patriotic songs ( "Who are you" and ""Where is my Vietnam") emphasizing the concern of the Vietnamese people, facing with the gradual invasion of China. During the year 2011, hundreds of people staged multiple anti-China demonstrations in Vietnam to protest against the Chinese incursions into the Vietnamese maritime borders. Ironically, several protesters were incarcerated or brutally oppressed by the Vietnamese police - without trials. Viet Khang, highlighted these tragic moments in his songs which warrant his arrest incommunicado.
With my limited english skills, I have attempted to produce an english translation (mostly from my french version) that I could sing. I sincerely hope this effort could help spreading the case of Viet Khang to the english-speaking community worldwide. Let's sing for Viet Khang together and pressure the Vietnamese communist authorities to release Viet Khang- immediately and unconditionally. Our heartfelt Thank You!
I happened to learn that about the Petition to the White House initiated by the Vietnamese-Americans. Please support and sign at the link below. Good luck to all !!

Where is my Vietnam? (originally "Viet Nam Toi Dau?" by Viet Khang)
Vietnam, my dear! Half a lifetime already passed
And now I truly know
What a life! When the war has ended
Our Motherland, suffering to witness lives
Ones are poor, others are hungry
Powerful are rich, dishonest
And now, Vietnam, do you still exist?
The chinese are destroying our homeland
In our seas, many Viets' innocents
Have been killed by the chinese gunmen
As citizens of Vietnam
Can we ignore the invasion?
Brothers, sisters, respond to our nation
men and women, fearlessly
Raising our hands, olds and youngs
Fight invaders also cowards
Who betrayed Vietnam
Where is my Vietnam? Where is my Vietnam? Where is my ... Vietnam?

Anh La Ai? - Qui es-Tu - Việt Khang
J'aimerais dédier cette version française à notre jeune héro Viet Khang.
Qui est Viet Khang?
Viet Khang -- né Vo Minh Tri - est un jeune musicien et chanteur vietnamien dans sa trentaine. Il a été arrêté par les autorités communistes vietnamiennes le 23 décembre 2011 pour simplement avoir composé et chanté deux chansons patriotiques ("Qui es Tu" et ""Où est mon Vietnam") soulignant l'inquiétude du peuple vietnamien, face à l'invasion graduelle de la Chine. Pendant l'année 2011, de centaines de personnes se descendaient dans les rues au Vietnam pour protester contre les incursions chinoises dans les mers territorales vietnamiennes. Ironiquement, plusieurs protestateurs ont été incarcérés ou opprimés brutalement par la police vietnamienne - sans procès judiciare. Viet Khang mettait en relief ces moments tragiques dans ses chansons qui lui coutent son arrestation incommunicado.
J'appelle à tout le monde aimant la liberté de nous joindre pour demander la libération immédiate de Viet Khang. Veuillez écrire aux élus de votre localité ainsi qu'au Ministère des Affaires étrangères de votre pays en faveur de ce jeune musicien/chanteur. Un grand merci de notre coeur!
Voici le texte intégral de la version française pourqu' on puisse chanter ensemble pour Viet Khang.
Qui es Tu?
Dis-moi, qui es tu?
Qu'ai-je fait, pourque tu m'arrêtes?
Dis-moi, qui es tu?
Me frappant, sans la moindre pitié?
Dis-moi, qui es tu?
M'interdisant, d'exprimer
L'amour pour ce pays, et ce peuple a trop de souffrance!
Dis-moi, d'où viens tu?
M'empêchant, d'opposer à la Chine?
Dis-moi, d'où viens tu?
M'insultant, dans notre propre langue?
Quelle est ta racine?
Quelle raison, de servir l'ennemi?
Et laisser la trace
Que tes mains, trempées de nos sangs
Je ne peux me taire
Quand mon pays est, ébranlé
Et mon peuple va se noyer
Dans l' obscurité à l' éternité
Je ne peux me taire
Pour l'avenir, de mes descendants
Quelle sera leur racine?
Quand ce monde, n'a plus de Vietnam

Who are you? (originally "Anh la Ai?" by Viet Khang)
Tell me, who are you?
Why jailing me, what have I done wrong?
Tell me, who are you?
Why beating me without the least mercy?
Tell me, who are you?
Why stopping me from professing?
My love for this country whose people have too much suffering !
Tell me where're you from?
Why stopping me from opposing China?
Tell me where're you from?
Why insulting in our native tongue?
Where is your origin?
Why cowardly serving enemies?
Then leaving the mark
That your hands have stained in our blood
I cannot sit still
When my country is collapsing
My people will be sinking
Into thousand years of eternal darkness
I cannot sit still
For the future of my descendents
What will be their origin?
When this world has no trace of Vietnam

Nice Translation!!! BUT GO TAKE SINGING CLASSES!!! I've heard a cat sing better!!!

@ChocoLuverz Thanks for your comments. My goal is to sing for VietKhang, and to expose to the world that the Vietnamese communist regime has arrested an artist for expressing his patriotism. And I have succeeded. With 20,000 viewers, 2000 from Vietnam, these people now know about Vietkhang's songs have been translated in many languages, viewed in many countries. If you join my effort, Vietkhang will be free sooner and you can listen to him singing live. I am sure it is better than a cat., Cheers.

Anh Là Ai? - chuyển ngữ Hòa Lan: Trúc Hà
Mag ik vragen, wie ben jij?
Waarom arresteer je mij? Wat heb ik verkeerd gedaan?
Mag ik vragen, wie ben jij?
Waarom sloeg je mij zonder enige genade?
Mag ik vragen, wie ben jij?
Waarom verbied je mij te protesteren
Uit liefde voor dit land en het volk dat veel heeft geleden!
Mag ik vragen, waar kom jij vandaan?
Waarom verbied je mij te verzetten tegen de Chinese invasie
Mag ik vragen, waar kom jij vandaan?
Waarom scheld je tegen mij in de taal van jou en mij?
Waar is je nationalisme?
Waarom neem je bewust orders van China?
Je laat eeuwen lang een spoor achter
Bloed aan je handen van je eigen mensen
Ik kan niet stil zitten
Terwijl Vietnam gaat instorten
En mijn volk gaat zinken
In duizend jaar van eeuwige duisternis
Ik kan niet stil zitten
Mijn kinderen en de volgende generatie verdienen een toekomst
Waar liggen onze wortels?
Wanneer Vietnam niet meer in deze wereld is.
