A Song of Love / Tự Tình Khúc
Poem: Vương Thanh, music: Dương Vân Châu Trúc Ca
Gift song for Vuong Thanh from Cô Châu
Translated  by Vuong Thanh, 2019

Trình bày: Thụy Long


Like the stars glittering in the far horizon

Like the brook gently flowing down the mountain

Like the silver moon shining on the bamboo terrace

Like the blooming epiphyllum flower’s delicate fragrance


I’ve been infatuated since many lifetimes ago

From your charming gracefulness and slender figure

From the sunlight sparkling on your coral lips

From the sandals with the color of a rose.  


Chorus:

O The lustrous stream of hair with heavenly fragrance

Dreamy eyes that spark a thousand wistful moments

Your flowing dress dances its reflection in the river waves

My boat lost in the romantic mist of your presence.


Hands in hands, we’ll go through life’s journey

Through happy times and periods of difficulties

Music floats in the air with the Song of Love

The birds nearby chorus a symphonic harmony.
