Song of the Week


Thoos Hawj - Looj Ceeb Zos Ywj Pheej


Hmo no cua tuaj nplawm ntws no ntxiag

The wind blows chillingly tonight

Ntsia hnub qub tawm tuaj dawb vog

(I look at) the appearing white stars

Rov nco nco tus neeg tag los

(It makes me) nostalgic of the past someone

Uas tau sib hlub hauv nroog Looj Ceeb

(That I've) loved in the city of Long Cheng

Tus neeg kuv hlub

My love

Xav los txog sib ncaim lawm ntev

When thinking about it, (we’ve) been separated for a long time already




Nyob tej chaw noj qab hnav zoo

Living in a land of wealth

Tau zoo tsis tau tiv tshav tiv nag

A comfort life that is depleted of having to withstand the scorching sun and rain

Es yav tag koj puas nco lawm

So do you remember (our) past?

Sib ncaim mus nyob ib leeg ib qho

We were separated to different places

Kev hlub tag los nrog lub qub zog tseem nyob li qub

(Our) past love in the old city is still the same



Tuaj ua laj ua kam tuaj ua dag ua zog

Coming to work

Tus me noog me no ya tuaj mus lawm deb

This little bird has flown far away

Ncaim lawm ntev ncaim phooj ncaim ywg

Gone for a long time away from friends

Nyob kho siab khuav tsis muaj kev hlub

Living in loneliness without love

Lub hli saum ntuj tshiab yam lub neej nyob hauv Looj Ceeb

The moon in the sky is bright like (our) life in Long Cheng



Xav kom lub sij hawm rov tig mus dua

Wish that time can reverse once

Yuav tuav nws cia rau wb sib hlub

(Then I would) hold it so that we may love

Li thaum ub nyob hauv Looj Ceeb

Like (we) once had in Long Cheng

Tej phooj tej ywg lom zem xaus npo

(With) friends living a fun-filled life

Koj puas tseem nco txog wb lub zos uas nyob ywj pheej

Do you remember that old city where we lived independently?



Tuaj ua laj ua kam tuaj ua dag ua zog

Coming to work

Tus me noog me no ya tuaj mus lawm deb

This little bird has flown far away

Ncaim lawm ntev ncaim phooj ncaim ywg

Gone for a long time away from friends

Nyob kho siab khuav tsis muaj kev hlub

Living in loneliness without love

Lub hli saum ntuj tshiab yam lub neej nyob hauv Looj Ceeb

The moon in the sky is bright like (our) life in Long Cheng



Xav kom lub sij hawm rov tig mus dua

Wish that time can reverse once

Yuav tuav nws cia rau wb sib hlub

(Then I would) hold it so that we may love

Li thaum ub nyob hauv Looj Ceeb

Like (we) once had in Long Cheng

Tej phooj tej ywg lom zem xaus npo

(With) friends living a fun-filled life

Koj puas tseem nco txog wb lub zos uas nyob ywj pheej

Do you remember that old city where we lived independently?
