lyrics

"Ai về nước Nam,
mang xương tôi về theo với."

Pale eyes gazed at the setting sun
Bright flames danced on weathered skin
Southbound the feeble heart yearned

In exile, only the birds harked his cries

Sorrow walked in his steps
Longing warmed his bed at night
In dreams only the torments ceased

Where he drowned in pools of memory

Decrepitude greeted at his gate
Winter came as birds headed south
Cloaked him in a northern solitude

Came the mornings misery waited
Cursed,
Cursed to feed on life's bitter milk
To wither on a day
When no one knows

In a foreign land
A foreign tongue
Never again shall he taste
The southern motherly warm

Forever in foreign soil
Shall his bones lay

Alas, sorrows turned to ashes
And longing into stone
On a lonely plaque
Engraved his eternal will

Oh he who ventures southward
Pray, take my bones with thee.
