hmmm, i actually like some nhac vang more.
depends, because i would visit my parents place and eat noodle and my dad or mom would blast the volume in the house. i just love it.

i just find it just easier to find vpop music i can listen to because of youtube and practice singin it bedroom karaoke when i'm bored. but lately i haven't heard much vpop lately because seems to get boring and mimic too much kpop. if i wanna listen to kpop, i would. but yea

I love this one a lot. Would anybody be kind enough to completely translate it?

If you think it's too much work and just want to give a synopsis, you needn't bother because the CD booklet already provides one. But thanks for your almost-effort anyway!

This is my literal translation. You get the gist though.
Phạm Duy ***** This is a very prolific and talented song writer ****** Ones of my favorites
(Saigon-1954)

Ðố ai biết lúa, lúa mấy cây Who knows how many rice plants in a paddy field
Biết sông, biết sông mấy khúc how many stretches of a river
Ới biết mây, biết mây mấy từng how many layers of cloud
Biết mây mấy từng (ư ừ ư ư) how many layers of cloud
Ðố ai quét sạch ơi lá rừng Who can sweep away leaves in a woods
Ðể, để tôi So I,
Ðể tôi khuyên gió ơi gió đừng So I can tell the wind do not
Gió đừng rung cây do not shake the trees
Gió đừng rung cây. do not shake the trees
Ðố ai biết gió, gió ở đâu Who knows where the wind lives
Gió hay, gió hay đi vắng ới lúc nao When the wind is away from home
Lúc nao có nhà or when it's home
Lúc nao có nhà (a

a a) repeat
Ðố trăng mấy tuổi ơi trăng già Who knows how old the moon can be
Ðể, để tôi so I
Ðể tôi lên tiếng ơi mặn mà so I can speak sweet words
Mặn mà yêu em Sweet loving to you
Mặn mà yêu em... (

a a

) repeat
. . . . . . . . .
Ðố ai nằm ngủ không mơ Who can sleep without dreaming
Biết em nằm ngủ hay mơ I know you often dream
Nửa đêm trăng xuống Midnight the moon descends
Ðứng chờ ngoài hiên waiting on the porch
Nửa đêm anh đến Midnight I will be
Bến bờ yêu đương at the (river) bank of love
Ðố ai tìm được tim ai Who can find someone's heart
Biết em tìm được tim tôi You found my heart
Ðể tôi ca hát cho đời nên thơ. So I can sing for life poetic
Ðể tôi âu yếm dâng người trong mơ... So I can lovingly present it to the one of my dreams

Oooh, such a sweet song. Thanks a lot! If you want me to translate something in return, just tell me!

Though I feel the instrumentation may not do the original one justice. I thought this one was the original.

I can see why you like this song, based on the others (non-viet) ones you've posted. Has a sorta poetic folksy quality to it (Can't really find the right words to describe it right now)

I've always wanted to learn a foreign language. I'm amazed how Europeans many to be mutli-lingual without living in the countries themselves.

Lavender · « **Reply #39 on:** August 16, 2013, 07:46:16 AM »

This is another Pham Duy song, composed from a poem by Huy Can. One of my old favorites.
