Magical. Illustration by Ngoc Bang.

With love and longing, I send my regards to Bac Ha.

Wandering along the streets

Mist hangs low, the fragrance lingers like threads of heaven.

Mountain corn wine, smooth on the lips.

Remember who trimmed the corn on the fragrant hillside?

The man who came to Bản Phố secretly fell in love.

The affection shared over a cup of wine in everyday life, with rosy eyebrows.

I went to that place to find my way back.

The verses cling to the rustic charm of Bac Ha.

A feeling of wistfulness for the vast sky and sea.

A single encounter evokes a century-long longing.

Life's worries never end.

I still long to visit Lao Cai again…
