Op-Ed: www.sophanseng.infoSongs have been traditionally used by politicians to describe their personality, their policy, election campaign and to advertise their organization. Hence, Khmer patriotic songs or Chomrieng Snaeh Haa Jeat Khmers have been mainly advocated to oppose the intrusion of foreigners in the past. But now many patriotic songs are describing the injustice happening in society, unequal development and social gap, reprimanding the dictatorship style and promoting democracy etc.
In here, I have found two impressive songs sung by two Khmer singers in which I would like to translate them to share with everyone as following.
1. First and second video clip is the same songs sung by Koy Vanna titled "It is time to wake up all Khmers".
It's time now brethren Khmers don't be negligent (repeat), because the Khmer nation need you again (repeat), Khmer children have you forgotten your history, we must shoulder to build our nation to re-survive,...
It's time now brethren Khmers don't be negligent (repeat), our past is glorious because we are united, don't be drowsy and take excuse, we must safeguard our race and belief, wake up brethren Khmers all near and distance to re-develop our nation,...(repeat)...
2. This third song is sung by Chan Sokhoeun titled "Khmer must love Khmer":
Passing several years as Khmers were bitterly suffering, oh all angels have you seen this?, Khmer blood spread all over the earth, no second of having no suffering as it is absolutely relentless, patriotism is the love of power entitlement including goals money dollars, may all Khmer children figure out again, our nation has inherited glory as all mankind know and praise, all Khmer children you must unite to save our nation, to destroy those vicious enemies who are intending to eliminate Khmer nation, stand up immediately to unite and shoulder so that Khmer nation can be prosperous,
Patriotism must be honest so that you deserve real reputation and progress can prevail to Khmer children, this time is like other time, our nation needs honest patriotic,
Patriotism must be honest so that you deserve real reputation and progress can prevail to Khmer children, this time is like other time, our nation needs honest patriotic,
