Original Vietnamese version
Impromptu Song of Streets
Hanoi, all things are cheap, just friendship is priceless…
Hanoi, all things are cheap, just human love is priceless…
Hanoi, all things are blue. So sorrowful, fall season…
Hanoi, all things are fun. Guys hanging out, “Bia Hoi junction”
Hanoi, the rains, childhood friends played in river of streets.
Hanoi, winter, tasty flavour of slightly burned corns.
Hanoi, it’s you! a silly girl, with an all grey girlhood…
Hanoi, my Mom! still dryed brown scarf, and old worn shirts…
….be widowed to share love to children…
Hanoi’s always dusty. Guom lake is viewed from afar…
Hanoi, sharply cold weather, wait for smoothness of your hands…
Hanoi, once cried heart out, rushed upstairs to find Mom’s shade…
Hanoi, there’s something hurts! My darling has never come back…
Hanoi, Guom lake, a decanter that history has left…
Hanoi, autumns, reminding of old ways with cart…
Hanoi, the Gate, windy sunset, a man cannot come back…
Hanoi, my heart, the faraway dream of exiles
…and dust is back to dust
