Con motivo del 129 aniversario del natalicio de Ho Chi Minh queremos presentar "Teacher Uncle Ho” (Profesor Tio Ho), una canción especial sobre el presidente Ho Chi Minh compuesta por el músico estadounidense Pete Seeger, uno de los activistas más conocidos durante la guerra de Vietnam.
La canción, con un ritmo rápido y alegre, representa la bella imagen del presidente Ho Chi Minh como representante de todos los que aman la paz. El tema debutó en 1970 y recibió comentarios positivos de todo el mundo, especialmente de los amantes de la paz en Estados Unidos.
He educated all the people.
He demonstrated to the world:
If a man will stand for his own land,
He's got the strength of ten.
And if we'd only learn the lesson,
It could even be a blessin',
He and me might disagree,
But we needn't go to shooting again.
And if soldier boys in every land say,
"Hell no, we won't go," ("what did you say")
"Hell no, we won't go," ("say it again!")
"Hell no, we won't go!"
I'll have to say in my own way,
The only way I know,
That we learned power to the people and the power to know
From Teacher Uncle Ho!
