We was pleased to give people here the poem “Thuong lam Mien Trung” of Bui Hoang Tam & was set to music by Musician Le Xuan Hoan on behalf of the most sense words.

 “Thương lắm Miền Trung”.

Vừa mới hôm nào nghe trong đó
Nắng lửa liên miên kiệt nước nguồn
Hôm rày đã lại nghe trong nớ
Mười ngày hai trận lũ, mưa tuôn.

Thương những hàng cây khô trong cát
Giờ gặp bão giông bật gốc cành
Thương những nấm mồ khô trên cát
Giờ lại ngâm mình trong nước xanh.

Thương những mẹ già da tím tái
Gồng lưng chống lại gió mưa giông
Thương những em thơ mờ mắt đói
Dõi nhìn con nước, nước mênh mông.

Vẫn biết ngày mai qua bão lũ
Lá vẫn xanh cây, quả ngọt cành
Miền Trung – Cây cột thu lôi ấy
Nhận hết bão giông lại phía mình.
