Why does dad regret his whole life

The whole world is in dad's pocket...'

In late November, students far away who couldn't visit their teacher turned to this song to feel their hearts calm down, overflowing with sincere gratitude for those who taught them in the past. The song When the Teacher's Hair Turns White was born in a creative campaign about education in 1994, as a way for musician Tran Duc to express gratitude to his old teacher. He once shared in the newspaper that when he was young, he was close to a kind and humble teacher named Mr. Ninh. The respect and love for his old teacher prompted musician Tran Duc to write When the Teacher's Hair Turns White.

In 1999, the newspaper Thiếu Niên Tiền Phong, the Vietnamese Musicians' Association, the VTV Education Science Board, the Vietnamese Voice of Vietnam Music Department, and others collaborated to organize a vote for the '50 Best Children's Songs of the 20th Century.' In that list, musician Tran Duc had two songs chosen: When the Teacher's Hair Turns White and Dreaming of Tomorrow. Upon hearing this good news, he visited his teacher's house, put the song in an envelope, lit three incense sticks to 'deliver the good news' to his teacher.

The image of the teacher appears in a simple, authentic, and very rustic way through the lyrics of musician Tran Duc. 'When the Teacher's Hair Turns White' - the song is like a container of the students' hearts, how could the teachers' teaching efforts be forgotten.

Many boats have passed, the teacher's hair has turned white with each generation of students, but the dedication of the teachers still remains over the years. The poignant lyrics of the song make everyone feel melancholic when thinking about those teachers whose hair has turned white still faithfully guiding generations of students to maturity.

With cheerful yet profound melodies, this song serves as a token of gratitude from students to their beloved teachers. Teachers - those who tirelessly work late into the night preparing lesson plans to impart knowledge, wisdom, and values to their students, equipping them with the tools to confidently step into life.

The gifts: 'A rose I dedicate to you, teacher / A song I sing for you, teacher...' though simple and small, they contain boundless love and gratitude for the teachers who have 'brought spring to us.'

Among the songs expressing gratitude to teachers, perhaps 'The Mentor' by Nguyen Nhat Huy is one of the most profound, heartfelt, and touching. The slow-paced lyrics and melody vividly revive the close image of the teacher who guided us through the years of being students.

The mentor silently and diligently passed through generations of students, dedicatedly imparting knowledge, leading each class of students across the river of knowledge. Each generation of students, even when grown, will always remember the dedication of the one who tirelessly guided them. Deep gratitude and appreciation will always be a part of the students' minds.

When it comes to songs about gratitude to teachers, one cannot overlook the familiar song 'Dust of Chalk.' The song Dust of Chalk was composed by musician Vu Hoang based on the poetry of Le Van Loc. With tender, concise yet profound lyrics, every time the melody plays, it evokes emotions, nostalgia for the teachers who once taught us. The image of chalk dust floating around the lectern, lingering on the teacher's hair, is a beautiful image that no student can easily forget.

Like a poetic melody, Dust of Chalk has short lyrics with gentle, memorable melodies. Each time those lines are sung, listeners feel as if they are living in moments of old memories when sitting in the school benches, as carefree, innocent students. Simultaneously, the song is a deep expression of gratitude for the guidance of teachers.

'Thank You, Soldiers' is a song of gratitude sent to those who have been and are guarding the homeland, preserving peace for the country. The melody is lively and cheerful yet equally heroic. The song is the children's expression of gratitude to the soldiers who do not hesitate to face the harsh weather, day after day guarding the remote borderlands and islands to maintain peace for the nation. 'Teacher teaches us to stand upright, raise our hands to say thank you. Celebrating the Vietnamese soldiers,' the teacher is the one who teaches the children about gratitude, respect for those who protect the border and the homeland every day.

Song lyrics:

'Keeping the peace of the homeland for fields full of rice

We all smile as we study

Teacher teaches us to stand upright, raise our hands to say thank you

Celebrating the Vietnamese soldiers'

Gratitude is not just about thanking parents, teachers, and those who directly help us, but it also lies in remembering the previous generations, the heroes who sacrificed for the peaceful and beautiful country we have today. Among them, we cannot forget the great leader of the nation, President Ho Chi Minh.

Uncle Ho is the leader of the Vietnamese nation, who brought independence and freedom to our people. He always showed love to everyone, especially to the children. To express gratitude to Uncle Ho, many musicians have composed numerous songs about him. 'Remembering Uncle Ho' is one of them, a song that expresses love and remembrance of the children for Uncle Ho, who brought warmth and happiness to their lives.

Song lyrics:
'Who loves children more than Uncle Ho Chi Minh
Who loves Uncle Ho Chi Minh more than us children
With Uncle Ho, our lives are warm and happy
We dance and sing, remembering Uncle Ho's kindness'

The image of a dedicated teacher, diligently working on lesson plans under the late-night lights, is an unforgettable sight in the heart of every student. The expansive love and dedication of teachers, like a vast forest of flowers, their effort and passion are always devoted to all beloved students.

The song rises with a sincere melody, as if containing the profound gratitude of students for the revered teachers, as well as reminding us to always remember the teaching legacy of our teachers, so that we can confidently step into life's journey.
