Accompanied by sweet fragrant flowers,
My beloved stands tall and graceful,
Her smile deeply embedded in my heart.


You stirred my heart deeply!
Nights filled with excitement,
I remember you, I remember the sky where you are.
The clear moonlight illuminates the nights
As if in harmony with your smiling lips.
The dawn breaks across the horizon,
The warm sun colors the cheeks of my beloved.
Wandering under the afternoon sun,
The longing for my beloved grows endlessly.
Suddenly, I feel a pang in my heart,
Loving you, I can only hope and wait.
Love seemed as beautiful as a dream,
Yet the distance between us remains vast.
When will all barriers vanish?
So we can build dreams together, hand in hand?


4. Waiting for your return
Remembering you endlessly
Every second, every minute, longing to walk the same path back
Here, I vow to wait
For you to return to the peaceful countryside.
Thank you for your sincere words
Of the most beautiful girl in my life
Loving each other, never wanting to be apart
But because of fate, tears fall, accepting it.
Oh dear, please be sincere
Let our bond be peaceful for months and years
Even though it's still far away
I still wait, nights filled with longing and love.
The sorrow keeps lingering
Do you know how pitiful the scene is?
I love you honestly
Waiting for the day of reunion, deeply immersed in the fate.

5. If only
Remembering the past, you said to me:
If one day we get tired of each other
Then life will be so sad...
I never thought about that carelessly
The happy days passed by quickly
Now we're truly apart
The past is gone with the wind
Words of the past have turned into prophecies
Love comes, love goes
Even if we knew, what could we do?
If only those days we didn't meet
No exchange of glances, no exchange of smiles
Calmly, both faces
Traverse life indifferently
Then each goes their own way
No sentiment, no lingering in the heart
No sadness, no longing, no hope
No dreams at night, no waiting during the day...
If only we... in the old days
Got tired of each other the moment we met...

6. By Your Side
Under the golden moonlight together
Hearing you whisper softly in my ear
You talk a lot about the future
Talking about the happiness of both of us
I kiss you with a kiss of love
The moon reflects our image on the water
The space on earth merges
The night scene is like a thousand colorful flowers
Gently like seagull wings
Arms embracing all night long with deep affection
By each other, two pink hearts
Blend into the melody of the countryside's fragrance and poetry
Words of love, longing, waiting
Secretly hoping we'll never be apart
Even if time changes colors
You and I forever pray to be together.

7. Threads of White Robe
I loved an innocent time
Ao dai fluttering in the wind every day
Your smile intoxicating
With a phượng branch happily in the courtyard.
For many weary eyes
Waiting for you after school in the afternoon
The road is full of threads of longing
Do you know or pretend not to?
A white sheet of paper so poetic
Many slender lines with a thin pen
How to express this whole heart
Or rely on the phượng wing to send love.
Wishing you walk the same path
So I can admire your lovely smile forever
My heart wants to share love
Oh you! Do you understand my heart's realm?
Night and day I wait and watch
Hoping to catch a glimpse of you here
My soul feels intoxicated
With joyous emotions, joyous delight.
Remembering many innocent moments
Feet lightly stepping like fairies
Remembering those gentle eyes
My soul has merged with you, oh you!

8. Seeking Childhood Memories When You Return
Returning to find childhood
The pink phoenix wings gracefully drop
Picking up so many memories, oh dear
Looking for the distant diary pages, where are they?
Returning to find first love
Childhood in pure white
You pin flowers in your hair
Unspoken love hesitates and lingers
Dreamy pink age as the evening falls
An unfinished poem, overflowing with love
Shyly, we dare not look at each other
Your heart has promised never to leave
Parting in the fading summer
The pink petals in the wind soaked with sadness
The schoolyard resonates with cicadas
Ambiguous feelings, stirring in the soul
Returning to find peace
The pink age filled with distant dreams
Carefree under the clear moonlight
Beloved school days, months, and years.

9. Longing
Words of love sent into poetry,
Giving you the happiness awaited for so long.
My heart forever melancholy,
Etching a thousand verses of love...
You smile so charmingly,
Your eyes hiding affection.
The warm kiss from days past,
Contains my abundant love.
Where are those evenings with you,
Strolling the streets with your beautiful figure?
Where are those serene mornings,
You bringing happiness, affection to me.
How I miss the melodious voice,
Gently whispering sweet nothings in my ear.
How I miss the endless longing...
Intoxicated by you, in the heaven of our love!

10. Not Just a Dream
Love is like a dream
No one knows the doubt beforehand
We know it might bring sorrow
But we still dare to dive into love
We swear by the mountains and make promises
How many have achieved that?
Like the changing weather
Like clouds and winds unexpectedly shifting
The first time if we choose the wrong path
We might embrace pain for a lifetime
Unlike other games
That once controlled, people quickly lose interest
To love, one must be deeply intoxicated
Choosing a life, a heart unchanged
No wavering, two hearts as one
Sharing joys and sorrows together
Even in bitterness, there's sweetness
So why be sad about love's pain?
Caring deeply for each other
Never shedding tears for love.
