(Baonghean.vn) - Since the beginning of time, Lam Giang has embraced Cat Ngan on three sides. The river irrigates the fields. The river collects golden sandbanks. The river offers countless shrimps and fish. The river deposits layers of alluvium...

The river enriches the land with fruits all year round, but the river also forces people into an inconvenient situation for trade. From the countryside, there are four ferry terminals. When returning home from many places, one is still worried about the dark sky, worried about "missing the boat". The saying "don't wade through a deep river, don't cross a full boat" is heavy in one's heart...

Taking "books as sails" (1), the land of Tu Tac carefully gave birth to and nurtured many scholars, many Bachelors, Masters, Third Class Masters (2), many heroes (3) who made the "land of Cat" famous.

Cung ferry patiently brings the products of the countryside on the right bank to Luong market, Hom market, Diem market, Trang market,... The ferry carries essential goods from Do Luong to 3-2 market, Chua market, Con market for retail sale. Summer days are scorching hot on the dike. December is cold enough to bend the carrying poles. Dawn comes early. Dusk comes late. Early in the morning, people and vehicles are bustling, children are carried, people are carrying their children, carrying their loads to catch the trip. Late at night, the deserted wharf still hears the anxious call of "ferryman",...

This riverside used to be bustling with longan, grapefruit, green tea, betel, spicy ginger, salty salt,... The peaceful river caresses, lifting sails filled with wind. The kite flute is melodious and gentle. The cool wind and clear moon, the ferryman's sad and angry verses slowly carry people back and forth, connecting the salty love between people upstream and downstream.

From the darkness of slavery, in the early years of the 20th century, in a betel and cinnamon basket at the hometown wharf, Tran Thi Tuyet skillfully hid bundles of leaflets, quietly passing them around in hope,... Many farmers eagerly listened to each speech of Tran Huu Doanh, which kindled their faith. How many ferry trips carried Phan Boi Chau, Tran Phu, Ha Huy Tap, Ho Tung Mau, Nguyen Phong Sac, Nguyen Chi Thanh, Tran Huu Duc, Chu Van Bien,... to the hometown of Cat Ngan to "sow seeds"?

The river is eroding on one side and accreting on the other. On this side, the brave men of Cat Ngan, with bamboo sticks and spears, defeated the armed French. On the other side, the gentle and virtuous women of Do Luong, worked as silkworm farmers and weavers. Cat Ngan and Do Luong are separated by two banks. The river is calm, graceful, and surging. Many ferry trips have created friendship and familiarity. The love between the two hometowns is entangled, the vows are steadfast. Although separated by river, their eyes are not far apart, their hearts are not far apart.

September 1, 1930. The river was red, roaring angrily. Layers of peasants, barefoot and dressed in cloth, shoulder to shoulder, protested, destroying the feudal district office. The people were like the Lam River. Guns, bullets, and shackles could not stop the waterfall and the rising tide.

“The years when American bombs fell on the roof” (4), under the enemy’s flares, the motherland was moved, passing the burdens to each other, lifting the sleep of her children returning from the battlefield to Military Hospital IV. The house was small, but the heart was not small, “fish and water” shared the sweet and the bitter together,...

River is Mother. River is Homeland. Going far away from the horizon, I still long for the river dock to meet. Motorboats replace hand oars. The water dock is bustling and bustling. I still long for my hometown to integrate with everywhere. Innovation - Integration. The Country is changing, bustling with construction projects. The villagers are anxious, waiting for a bridge to connect the shores of joy.

Today, the hammers of the machine resound on the Lam River. 10 solid spans of the bridge will cross the river - which for thousands of years seemed only a dream. The ferry that dives and dives at the riverbank will say goodbye, proudly rising high on the Lam River, goods will flow in all directions. The singers join the river to rejoice, celebrating the day of turning a new page for the country and homeland.
