A poem in Vietnamese by Thái Hạo
Translator: Nguyễn Thị Phương Trâm
Returning to find you in attributesf a leaf
See the petals vent a dream
The tattered I
Called upon
The sun
Awash with brilliant light
Is this mortal soul
(May 2020)

Trở về tìm em trong nét lá
Thấy áo hoa trút mộng
Tơi bời
Anh gọi
Nắng
