Anthem of the People's Republic of Kampuchea

"Anthem of the People's Republic of Kampuchea" (Khmer: បទចម្រៀងនៃសាធារណរដ្ឋប្រជាមានិតកម្ពុជា, Bât Châmrieng ney Sathéarônârôdth Brâchéaméanit Kâmpŭchéa [ɓɑt cɑmriəŋ nɨj saːtʰiərĕənarŏət prɑciəmiənɨt kampuciə]) was the national anthem of the People's Republic of Kampuchea from 1979 to 1992. It was composed by Keo Chinda and Chy Saopea. While Vietnam and most Communist governments recognized the People's Republic of Kampuchea during its existence, the Khmer Rouge, together with the monarchists and Khmer People's National Liberation Front, formed the Coalition Government of Democratic Kampuchea that continued to use the anthem of Democratic Kampuchea. It was this government-in-exile that was recognized by China, North Korea, Romania, and most Western Bloc governments and the United Nations; as such, many Western sources continued to list "Dap Prampi Mesa Moha Chokchey" as being the Cambodian national anthem until the restoration of the monarchy in 1993.^[1]

Toàn dân Campuchia là lực lượng cách mạng, Toàn dân Campuchia thề diệt sạch kẻ thù, Tình anh em làm nên sức mạnh của chúng ta, Nguyện dâng máu xương ta cho ngày đại thắng. Quân dân Campuchia anh dũng tiến lên, Vượt qua mọi rào cản chông gai Kẻ thù gian ác rồi đây cũng lụi tàn, Ta sẽ đem lại tự do no ấm cho nhân dân. Chiến sĩ Campuchia anh hùng xông qua chiến tuyến, Quyết quên thân mình rửa nhục cho dân tộc, Phất cao lá cờ ngôi đền vàng nhuộm máu, Dẫn dắt quốc gia đi đến con đường hạnh phúc!	Cambodians are a force for change, we swear to destroy all enemies, harmonization makes us stronger, we sacrifice our life, spilling blood for victory. Cambodian army is valorous, we cross all barriers, all enemies are destroyed, we bring the precious freedom to the people. Cambodian heroes, the sons of a brutal war, they swear to seek revenge towards their enemies, the victorious red temple flag is erected, we lead the nation into happiness.
