170 [English translation]

Relax, I'll soon be returning soon

You know I'll receive sufficient scholarship funding

Now I enlist as a voluntary soldier

When I leave, I'll be a father

It was night, turned into day and night again

I wrote letter after letter but none were ever returned

Half a year with shots and open wounds

Half a year, oh god, time passes so slowly

Thank god for the medical personnel

'Cause they sow together recruit and general

The day came, and I waited for the signal

I got my last order from the highest in command

And he yelled

170, go and see if the coast is clear

No, General, please don't make me

It's easy for you to send a volunteer soldier

But who will take care of my wife and child

170, is the coast clear, is the coast clear

170, I'm waiting for an answer
