Nui Coc - New Legend

The editorial board respectfully introduces this poem:

NUI COC – NEW LEGEND

Gift to Musician Pho Duc Phuong

I returned to visit Dai Tu land.

Echoing " The Legend of Nui Coc Lake"

Floating, floating

Wobbly, wobbly

Drifting boat, drifting boat…

In the lake waves blend the gallant notes

Show image of couple

Deeply in love but not destined to be together

The painful love turns into rivers and mountains

To let thousands of passionate songs last for generations...

I silently looked at Nui Coc Lake today

Mesmerizing, lingering on the surfing boat

At the bottom of this lake is a beloved student life.

Sinked in the vast water…

Boat through the old Banana Farm area

Where the wind blows and the sugar cane smells sweet

Me and you under the rustling trees

Want to give the first kiss, but just silently look at each other!

The bare hills around the lake are now glowing green

Trees and tea are connected smoothly.

Many couples choose to settle here.

The fire flickers to warm the whole night.

Tourists from all over the world gather

High rise hotel with windy sky

Thai Nguyen Tea Festival is crowded and exciting

How many couples holding hands

Soak up the scent of tea from this passionate land

New legend born from Coc mountain

Honoring the beauty of the revolutionary war zone

My sister and I visited Van Tho together.

Our love still whispers in Suoi Doi...

Thai Nguyen, early autumn 2024
