He walks in the night, looking for the light,
For someone to show the star,
That will take him to a place
That seems so far
He walks alone, he is left out in the unknown,
He’s nobody, ain’t got nobody
In this world who cares for him
No ones could ever survive
To this way of life
And yet he fights for his rights
To be safe, to be loved, to exist
The tears he cries
In the dark street where he lies
Roll in the dust like diamonds and pearls,
No one will ever find
dry the tears
give them love
give them life
for the joy of a smile
And dry those tears
stop the hunger
and the pain
for they are
the heart of Vietnam
