CHERRY BLOSSOM FESTIVAL

CHERRY BLOSSOM FESTIVAL


A golden sunny day with gentle wind,
We walk along the mellow and romantic Potomac River,
Millions of cherry flower blossoms 
amongst countless sparkling smiles.
  
Its scent is flying by,
Stroking and kissing the thin mantles. 
Its petals are soft, white and elegant,
Loving this experience, beauty and attraction,
we sit here with our legs dangling. 
Flutters in the east wind direction, 
Oh, how many realms of gloominess 
dissolve in the emptiness.
  
Cherry flowers 
serve as messengers 
of mutual respect, understanding and love, 
For it’s true beauty and meaning forever-lasting with hope,  
We now ought to plant the seeds of kindness.

THĂM XỨ HOA ĐÀO WASHINGTON

Trời nắng vàng gió nhẹ
Potomac dịu êm
Triệu hoa đào lấp lánh
Lung linh bao nụ cười

Mùi hương nào bay xa
Vuốt ve tà áo mỏng
Cách mềm trắng kiêu xa
Thương em như trứng mỏng

Ai ngồi đây chân thõng
Ngất ngây theo gió chiều
Bao nhiêu cõi đìu hiu
Hòa tan theo mây khói

Hoa Đào như sứ giả
Kết tình thương yêu nhau
Cho vẻ đẹp ngàn sau
Hãy vun bồi hạnh tốt.
