History

On 7 September 1457, the Battle of Ujëbardha occurred in Milot. It was the Second Siege of Krujë when an Albanian army led by Skanderbeg broke the surrounding Ottoman army. The defeat was chronicled in considerable detail by Ottoman chronicler Evliya Çelebi. The Battle of Ujëbardha was one of the greatest victories for Skanderbeg. Milot declared its independence in 1912 almost at the same time as all the other Albanian cities did.

    30 Avril 75

    30 avril 75
    L'année du tigre dingue
    Personne vraiment ne saura
    C'que ça représente pour toi
    Tous les chapeaux côniques
    La fuite, la panique
    Cette date, n'oublie pas
    Le jour où Saïgon tomba
    30 avril 75
    Après 30 années de guerre
    Sous un ciel de zinc
    Tu as du mordre la terre
    La honte, la folie
    Sur les routes tu as fuis
    Cette date, n'oublie pas
    Le jour où Saïgon tomba
    Oh oh oh oh... oh oh oh oh...
    30 avril 75...
    Cet avril est trop cruel
    Pour Saïgon la belle
    Tu as retourné ton arme
    Contre ta tempe et sans larmes
    Le drapeau, trois bandes rouges
    Sur fond jaune impérial
    Ne flottes plus sur la ville
    Ce jour là, 30 avril
    Si tous tes camarades
    Sont partis dans la jungle
    Tes enfants et ta femme
    Sont partis dans les vagues
    15 années de prison,
    De ré-éducation
    N'ont pas suffit à tuer
    L'espoir de liberté...
    Không bao già quên tu' do
    Không bao già quên Thuyên Nhân
    Không bao già quên Quê Hudng
    Không bao già quên Sa
    Và Khàng Chiên
    Và Nhân Quyên
    Và Giâi Phòng
    Và Thudng
    Và Quê Me
    Va Tô Tiên
    Và Lòng Tin
    Và Gia D
