Let's make this birthday one to remember.

86 years old (Born on February 28, 1939)

Happy Birthday to the legendary Trinh Cong Son! Your timeless melodies have serenaded generations, making us fall in love, reflect deeply, and occasionally get into trouble with the authorities. Who else could craft songs so beautiful they were banned yet still hummed secretly by everyone?

Your music continues to inspire countless hearts—proving that true artistry outlasts politics and censorship. Today we celebrate your courage, poetic genius, and unmatched ability to turn life's complexities into unforgettable tunes. May your legacy keep thriving as we sing along (quietly if necessary) for many more birthdays ahead! Cheers to you, maestro of love and peace!
