Black or White – Trắng hay đen (2)

by Đình Nguyên, translated by Nguyễn Thị Phương Trâm

 

Tea

Nor spirit

by Đình Nguyên, translated by Nguyễn Thị Phương Trâm

 

Tea

Nor spirit

There’s nothing to think about

When the incense is spent

The spirit is gone

We drink tea

______

Chọn trà

hay chọn rượu

Không cần suy nghĩ

Khi cây hương vừa tắt

Rượu vừa hết

Ta uống trà

By Nguyễn Thị Phương Trâm

There's magic in translating a body of work from one language to another.
