THANKSGIVING
Original “Tạ Ơn” by TAM GIANG

Thank you for all the peaceful times in life
During forty years we are husband and wife.
Thank you even a breath of air although vague
That gave my heart a certain bit of plague.

Thank you the beautiful American land
For offering us so many benefits at hand.
While the world is with vicissitudes thrilled
I am so lucky to have you as a Rose, fulfilled.

Translation by THANH-THANH
