The village is full of squash and gourd vines/ I am the thread that connects the bridge of my homeland!

I went back to my hometown in March.
Meet the red cotton tree standing with flowers at the end of the season
Follow father to the Temple field
Light incense and pray to your ancestors!

Countryside in Qingming Festival
The familiar incense smoke also brings the love of homeland.
Not yet familiar with the road, already in exile
Father went away to make a living.

It seems like the village has a communal house roof.
Once a testament to sacrifice
It seems that the village has Soi pagoda.
When I was a child, I played in the temple yard.

Dong Goi catches snails in crab season
Summer afternoon trampling fish on the banks of the Hoa River
The tide rises and the river water is vast.
Build a banana raft to swim to the ferry dock.

Life is like a dream
Dad's hair is now gray.
Village of squash and gourd vines
You are the bridge connecting the homeland!
