A song of me about Vietnamese living far away.
This inspiration comes from many visits of my relatives to Vietnam ( A Khoi, chi Ha , a Ti and other many young relatives etc. )
Tieng que huong - Goi em
Music and lyrics : Dang Khoa
Em ,co biet chang ngay quay ve
Làng que yeu dau than thuong suot nam dai
Em , co biet chang nguoi o lai
Xay dap tinh que huong dep vo bo
Goi nang nang dua em ve
Mot thoi tho au , xanh xanh bo luy non tre
Goi em nang tuoi , lua thom nong
Dan co trang, dan co bay rop mua
Goi gio , gio bay theo dong ..
Mot canh dong xanh chan chim mua tuoi nang moi
Goi em tieng ca dao nhan dua ve
Ngay thang cho mong , que huong minh dep biet bao
Tranlate into English...... ^ ^

Khoa, listening to this song brought tears to my eyes! (I think I was looking at the pre-1975 Vietnamese flag too) I don't understand all of the Vietnamese, but you conveyed so much meaning in your singing. It's really beautiful. Thank you for sharing with us! I know I will listen to this many more times.
ReplyDeleteDear chi Theresa , it is pleased to have common interests ( miss originals and homeland etc.) about this song.From 1986 , Vietnam economics has developed, lives of peoples are better , especially when bac Dinh came back to VN and facilitate diplomatic issues between VN and US.
ReplyDeleteDear chi Thereasa, I knew you when you wrote some letters with A. Bich mentioning about our big family. You are very emtional and take care of family , my father very speak highly of you - he says your charateristics look like your father Bac Due. If you have chance , come back homeland and visit and stay with us at my house and i will guide you to have cofffee , eat Vietnamese food , listen music etc. ^ ^
Khoa - I have listened a few times. It's really good. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteI don't listen to Vietnamese songs all these years in Australia. I listened to may be half a dozen VN songs when I was in high school in Saigon. My all time favourite was Christophe's "Oh mon amour!" sung in both French and Vietnamese by
Saigon's pop songstress at the time, Thanh Lan. You know "Elle a des yeurs qui voient la mer/Cuoc tinh ngay do mai mai khong quen"!!!!
But your demo tops Thanh Lan's recording in my chart, for sure!
BTW, Quang told me last year that Christophe ran a garage in Paris!
