frame.<br \/>\nOh homeland\u2014ten thousand miles, still blurred and distant,<br \/>\noh ancient roots\u2014when shall we meet again?<\/p>\n<p align=\"right\">Yellowed leaves weigh heavy on a numbing heart,<br \/>\nwind and rain beat down\u2014where are we swept away?<br \/>\nOh homeland, bound by love so deep and grave,<br \/>\nso much regret, she cannot close her eyes in peace.<\/p>\n<p align=\"right\">She still remembers\u2014her heart forever tight,<br \/>\nthe old lullabies still echo deep within.<br \/>\nThrough the window, pale afternoon light,<br \/>\nmist drifts thin around the shape of dusk\u2019s dim skin.<\/p>\n<p align=\"right\">The distant homeland rustles in her soul,<br \/>\na homesick song that knocks in measured beat.<\/p>\n<p align=\"right\">I owe you, Mother\u2014debts from lives before,<br \/>\nmy father\u2019s land reflected in your eyes of grief.<br \/>\nAn exiled life, flooded with countless sorrows,<br \/>\nwill I ever lead you back to where you belong?<\/p>\n<p align=\"right\">Through the window, time slips by in silence,<br \/>\nthe far-off land still etched within the heart.<br \/>\nAcross the vast sea, my longing searches on,<br \/>\nas hurried days resound with the noise of life.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nh\u1ea1c l\u1eddi Vi\u1ec7t \u1ede s\u1ed1 tu\u1ed5i \u0111\u00e3 d\u00e0i h\u01a1n th\u1ebf
