Crossing the moutains, [quasi] A Capella, 1966.

It's not easy crossing mountains, even if it's in the middle of spring, in the middle of flowering forests, in the middle of a bright day with clear skies

Crossing the mountain, life is there and death is there, in the midst of storms and bombs, we have to overcome...

...Even if the river runs dry, even if the rocks are slippery

The oath is as strong as the knife that cuts the stone

Let's open the way...

Via Truong Son (the Annamite Cordillera), over the Ma Pi Leng pass

Via Hoang Lien Son mountains, as difficult as they are, can be crossed

The Tay Con Linh peak, however difficult, can be overcome

Looking off into the distance, the mountains continue to grow.

We're still heading for the heights!

Crossing the mountain... here we go... Crossing the mountain... here we go...
