"HAPPY XMAS (WAR IS OVER)" foi composta por John Lennon, que fora membro do grupo The Beatles, no ano 1971, para protestar contra a Guerra de Vietnam.
Un pouco de historia!
A República Socialista de Vietnam atópase en Asia.
A GUERRA DE VIETNAM foi un enfrentamento militar que tivo lugar en Vietnam dende 1964 ata 1975.
Considerase o ano 1964 como o inicio das accións bélicas, porque afectou directamente aos Estados Unidos, ainda que o conflito xa levaba bastantes anos no territorio vietnamita.
Un dos desencadeantes foi que as guerrillas comunistas de Vietnam do Sur, apoiadas por Vietnam do Norte decidiron derrocar ao goberno de Vietnam do Sur.
O enfrentamento convertiuse nun conflito internacional cando Estados Unidos e moitos outros paises apoiaron a Vietnam do Sur, mentres que a Unión de Repúblicas Socialistas Soviéticas (URSS) e a República Popular China suministraron municións as guerrillas e a Vietnam do Norte.
Unha vez rematada a guerra proclamouse a República Socialista de Vietnam, no ano 1976.

So this is Christmas
And what have you done
Another year over
And a new one just begun
And so this is Christmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear ones
The old and the young.
A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let´s hope it´s a good one
Whithout any fear.
And so this is Christmas
For weak and for strong
The rich and the poor ones
The road is so long
And so happy Christmas
For black and for white
For yellow and red one
Let´s stop all the fight.
A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let´s hope it´s a good one
Whithout any fear.
And so this is Christmas
And what have we done
Another year over
And a new one just begun
And so happy Christmas
We hope you have fun
The near and the dear ones
The old and the young.
A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let´s hope it´s a good one
Whithout any fear.
War is over if you want it
war is over now.
And what have you done
Another year over
And a new one just begun
And so this is Christmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear ones
The old and the young.
A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let´s hope it´s a good one
Whithout any fear.
And so this is Christmas
For weak and for strong
The rich and the poor ones
The road is so long
And so happy Christmas
For black and for white
For yellow and red one
Let´s stop all the fight.
A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let´s hope it´s a good one
Whithout any fear.
And so this is Christmas
And what have we done
Another year over
And a new one just begun
And so happy Christmas
We hope you have fun
The near and the dear ones
The old and the young.
A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let´s hope it´s a good one
Whithout any fear.
War is over if you want it
war is over now.
