lyrics

Đường Lên Non

Đường lên non thì cao
Tình yêu nước nung nấu
Giọt sương hay hạt châu
Dòng sông in ngàn sao
Lấy trời làm màn
Đất rừng làm giường
Thay đèn bằng màu ánh trăng.

Nhìn sông ngân mộng say
Nhìn con suối êm ái
Đường Ngưu Lang là mây
Đường ta đi là đây
Gió ngàn là hồn
Suối rừng là đàn
Ta hoà nhịp đời muôn phương


The Path Uphill

The path uphill is tall
The love for my nation boils
A dewdrop or a pearl?
The river marks a thousand stars
The sky as my curtain
Mother Earth as my bed
Replace the bulbs for the moonlight

See the sensual river of dreams
Witness the silky waterfall
The cloudy road of Nguu Lang*
This is the path I shall take
The wind is my soul
The fountain is my instrument
I blend into the diverse rhythms of life


* The general tale is a love story between Nguu Lang (the cowherd, symbolizing the star Altair) and Truc Nu (the weaver girl, symbolizing the star Vega). Their love was not allowed, thus they were banished to opposite sides of the Silver River (symbolizing the Milky Way Galaxy). Once a year, on the 7th day of the 7th lunar month, a flock of magpies would form a bridge to reunite the lovers for one day.
