Original version
[

The anthem was originally named
La Marche des Etudiants
(
March of the Students
), composed by
L?u H?u Ph??c
and written by
Mai V?n B?
[
vi
]
in late 1939, and first adopted by a student club. In 1941, it became the anthem of the Indochina Students General Association, Ph??c renamed the anthem as
Ti?ng G?i Thanh Nien
(
Call to the Youths
), the lyrics was rewritten in Vietnamese and divided into three verses. The first verse was written by L?u H?u Ph??c and Mai V?n B? in 1941, and secretly spread until 1945, the second verse (
Ti?ng G?i Sinh Vien
, Call to the Students) was written by Le Kh?c Thi?u and đ?ng Ng?c T?t in late 1941, and published in 1943, the third verse was written by Hoang Mai L?u on April 4, 1945, and published before the
August Revolution
. In 1945 it became the anthem of the
Vanguard Youth
, the lyrics were slightly modified and known as
Ti?ng G?i Thanh Nien
or
Thanh Hien Hanh Khuc
.
Thanh Nien Hanh Khuc (1948–1956) and Ti?ng G?i Cong Dan (1956–1975)
[

In 1948, the
Provisional Central Government of Vietnam
adopted the song as its national anthem. The song was later modified, changing its name to
Ti?ng G?i Cong Dan
(
Call to the Citizens
) or
Cong Dan Hanh Khuc
(
March of the Citizens
), and became the official national anthem of
South Vietnam
.
[2]
Thanh nien Hanh Khuc
was first adopted as the national anthem by the Provisional Central Government of Vietnam (1948–1949) on 14 June 1948, and it was inherited as a national anthem by the
State of Vietnam
(1949?1955) and the
Republic of Vietnam
(1955?1975). The lyrics of
Thanh Nien Hanh Khuc
were revised by former President
Ngo Dinh Diem
in 1956.
The composer L?u H?u Ph??c opposed South Vietnam's use of the song and in 1949 he wrote a letter in protest; later the
Voice of Vietnam
sporadically broadcast L?u H?u Ph??c's criticisms.
[3]
After the war (1975–present)
[
edit
]
After 1975, the original version and name (
Ti?ng G?i Thanh Nien
) of the song was performed as the official version in the
Socialist Republic of Vietnam
.
Anti-communist refugees and expatriates continued to use the revised version and dubbed it as "Anthem of Free Vietnam".
