Hmong People


We are Hmong people. We have same rights and humanity as others However we speak differently. Because of minds who said we tried power The Chinese threw us out. Because of nation lied to us Many people had died innocently. Because we are different We treat other with respect and disgrace. Yet the world of Hmong is unknown It was told and mention as Chinese. There is a difference. There's the similarity There are beliefs There will be pain of us who lost people. The reason of losing people is sometimes not on us. Depends on how it goes. A boy who walked ten miles a day with people A soldier who told the elders we will be safe Then fight with them Our people died to win But promises broken the united oath Now we had no chance remain our rights. But we remain ourselves Because we are Hmong people to stand next to General Vang Pao.
