NHƠN LÝ VILLAGE - MY HOMETOWN
For
the sons and daughters of Nhơn Lý (Phước Lý),
Quy Nhơn, Bình Định
Quy Nhơn, Bình Định
My hometown is so
beautiful in the summer time
The mothers' llulubies are soothing in the wind
and we are growing up
in the rythms of the poetry
where
beautiful white sandy beaches, just like dreams
The soul of the
village, Eo Gió, holds many wonderful memories
Where vast blue sea,
clear sky and golden sunshine meet
The famous Dốc Cá,
captures the endless romantic
and the peaceful
place, Phước Sa temple, is mystic
My village, the
radiant dawn and free floating clouds
Where Hoa Ngoc
Monastery is filled with so much compassion
This is Nhơn Lý, our
village, with many memories.
Oh dear! How do you
ever know our love?
The love of our
motherland, is everlasting
As the love of exile
for his/her native birthplace
In this realm of
impermanence,
once we stop to
reflect
The native birthplace
is the source of countless live
And we are no longer
in our childhood dreams
We must build and contribute to our motherland.
Sacramento, Autumn 2007.
