Initial Encounter with Locals -- Vietnamese Phrase Book, Department of the Army Pamphlet, 1962 Lyrics by Solmaz Sharif

0

I.
Enter the village alone.
The password is _________.
Each individual must know these passwords.
Select the most able-bodied messengers.
Promise. Hurry. Swear.
We'll wait. All of you will wait.
II.
Come with me to the orchard.
Don't be afraid. We are friends/
Have a cigarette. Are you afraid?
Why? Of whom? What?
You certainly read out leaflets.
III.
What is the name of that mountain?
Which color is the most recognizable
from a distance? From what spot
could we have a better view?
What are the usual questions?
Who usually comes to this forest?
IV.
We cannot see from here
what we wish to observe.
We need an open place--
a meadow, a field, a plateau.
It must be far away.
Do you know of any such place?
We will pay for everything.
V.
Point on the map.
We will call it the drop zone.
Take care of this map.
We cannot give you another.
He is my watch.
When shall we see you again?
Good luck.
