Bonjour Vietnam
Raconte moi ce nom étrange et difficile à prononcer
Que je porte depuis que je suis née.
Raconte moi le vieil empire et le trait de mes yeux bridés,
Qui disent mieux que moi ce que tu n’oses dire.
Je ne sais de toi que des images de la guerre,
Un film de Coppola, [et] des hélicoptères en colère ...
Un jour, j’irai là bas, un jour dire bonjour à ton âme.
Un jour, j’irai là bas [pour] te dire bonjour, Vietnam.
Raconte moi ma couleur, mes cheveux et mes petits pieds,
Qui me portent depuis que je suis née.
Raconte moi ta maison, ta rue, racontes moi cet inconnu,
Les marchés flottants et les sampans de bois.
Je ne connais de mon pays que des photos de la guerre,
Un film de Coppola, [et] des hélicoptères en colère ...
Un jour, j’irai là bas, un jour dire bonjour à mon âme.
Un jour, j’irai là bas [pour] te dire bonjour, Vietnam.
Les temples et les Bouddhas de pierre pour mes pères,
Les femmes courbées dans les rizières pour mes mères,
Dans la prière, dans la lumière, revoir mes frères,
Toucher mon âme, mes racines, ma terre...
Un jour, j’irai là bas, un jour dire bonjour à mon âme.
Un jour, j’irai là bas [pour] te dire bonjour, Vietnam (2 fois).


English
Please tell me about this difficult name hard to pronounce
That i carry since i was born
Please tell me about this old empire and trait of my wrinkle eyes
That tell me better the things that you dare to say
I only know the images of war
Like in (Apocalypse Now) film of Copola of angry helicopter

One day I'll go there
One day to say 'hello' to my soul
One day I'll go there
To say "hello" to you Vietnam

Tell me about my skin, my eyes and my tiny feet
That carry me since my birth
Tell me about your home your road
Tell me what you know
About the floating market and the floating

I only know my country thru the photos of war
Like in (Apocalypse Now) film of Copola of angry helicopter

One day I'll go there
One day to say 'hello' to my soul
One day I'll go there
To say "hello" to you Vietnam

The falling buddhas of stones where my fathers
The women bending in the paddies like mothers
In the lights where I see my brothers
I want to touch my roots my lands

One day I'll go there
One day to say 'hello' to my soul
One day I'll go there
To say "hello" to you Vietnam

She is definitely not hard on the eyes (you wouldn't want to see my face, unless you are mentally prepared to be turned into stone).

Great song!!

..

Nice song, but she should sing it in Vietnamese instead.

it was a French guy that wrote the song.

I hear statics..... good song though

To landsknechts: we don't have many songs in French or English about vn so I think it's best to leave it like it is. Also, a vnese translation wouldn't be as good, i think. I don't know french keke

She looks cute ! And her voice is great too !

..

Thank for a great clip Tam Ca.It brought back lots of memories

Wow that was nice.

The singer has a melancholically moving voice.

The lyric is beautiful.

But the tune is not outstanding at all.

hmmm, it is a good song. thanks.

great voice. thanks, tamca.

Too bad she can't speak Viet.

Never mind.

In the future she might sing Vietnamese songs. She sounds like a little baby.
