Filk Poems About Love And Marriage / Ca Dao Về Tình Yêu Và Hôn Nhân

(Mong Thuong st )
Những bài dân ca sau nói lên tính chân thật và sâu sắc trong tình yêu giữa hai người. Mỗi bài điều được viết như là một người nầy đang nói chuyện với người yêu của mình. Một số bài nói lên một cách mạnh mẽ sức mạnh và sự sâu sắc trong khi thể hiện cảm xúc yêu của tình yêu đôi lứa. 
The following filk poems talk about the scincerity and depth of love between two people. Each is written as if it were spoken by one person to his lover or her lover. Some folk poems assert the strength and depth of while others imply intense feeling by reminiscing about the events in the relationship between two lovers.
Bài ca dao sau mô tả một người đã nhớ nhung người yêu của mình như thế nào :
This folk poem expressies how much a person misses his or her lover :
                1. Núi cao chi lắm núi ơi !
              Núi che mặt trời Núi lấp người yêu !
              Oh mountain, you are so high that
              you hide the sun and hide my beloved.
          2. Đôi ta như lúa mới nhen
              Như trăng mới mọc, như đèn mới khêu.
              We two are like the fire which has just been lit, 
              the moon which has just risen, and the flame of a lamp which has just been poked up.
          3. Mình về ta chẳng cho về
              Ta nắm lấy áo ta để bài thơ
               Câu thơ ba chữ rành rành
               Chữ " trung", chữ "hiếu", Chữ "tình" là ba.
               Chữ trung" thì để phần cha
               Chữ "hiếu" phần mẹ, đôi ta chữ "tình"
               I wouldn't let you leave me on your returning home.
               I would like to hold your dress on which i will inscribe a poem.
               The poem evidently has three words : " loyalty ", " priety" and " love".
               The first word is reserved for our father;
               the second one for our mother and the third one for us.
                     Người con gái nói với người yêu của mình :
                     The girl says to her lover : 
 
                4. Tình anh như nước dâng cao
              Tình em như dãi lụa đào tẩm hương
            “ My love for you is like the river water which is rising “, says the young man.
            “ My love for you is like a red fragrant ribbon of silk” says the girl.
   Người con trai tâng bốc người yêu của mình :
   The young man flatters his lover :

  1. I saw you in my dream last night
    if anyone could see us
    they would swear we were making love



    We saw nothing though

    you see, we were too busy

    exchanging souls.

  2. Chòng chành như nón không khua
    Như thuyền không lái, như chùa không sư.
    Không sư thì lại tìm sư
    Anh không có vợ cũng hư mất đời.
    ====
    Mong sao anh biến ra tằm
    Em biến ra nống ta nằm chung chơi.
    Khi nào cho hợp hai nơi
    Ghé tai nói nhỏ những lời thủy chung
    ====
    Chim quyên ăn trái nhãn lồng
    Thia thia quen chậu, vợ chồng quen hơi
    ====
    Hai đứa mình giống thế cây cau
    Anh bẹ em bẹ nương nhau sống đời.
    ====
    Ước gì sông rộng một gang
    Bắc cầu dải yếm để chàng sang chơi !
    ====
    Cô kia đứng ở bên sông
    Muốn sang, anh ngả cành hồng cho sang

  3. Speak Softly Love
    Speak softly, love and hold me warm against your heart
    I feel your words, the tender trembling moments start
    We’re in a world, our very own
    Sharing a love that only few have ever known

    Wine-colored days warmed by the sun
    Deep velvet nights when we are one

    Speak softly, love so no one hears us but the sky
    The vows of love we make will live until we die
    My life is yours and all becau-au-se
    You came into my world with love so softly love

    (instrumental interlude>

    Wine-colored days warmed by the sun
    Deep velvet nights when we are one

    Speak softly, love so no one hears us but the sky
    The vows of love we make will live until we die
    My life is yours and all becau-au-se
    You came into my world with love so softly love

  4. Marriage is a commitment to life,
    the best that two people can find and bring out in each other.
    It offers opportunities for sharing and growth
    that no other relationship can equal.
    It is a physical and an emotional joining that is promised for a lifetime.Within the circle of its love,
    marriage encompasses all of life's most important relationships.
    A wife and a husband are each other's best friend,
    confidant, lover, teacher, listener, and critic.
    And there may come times when one partner is heartbroken or ailing,
    and the love of the other may resemble
    the tender caring of a parent or child.Marriage deepens and enriches every facet of life.
    Happiness is fuller, memories are fresher,
    commitment is stronger, even anger is felt more strongly,
    and passes away more quickly.Marriage understands and forgives the mistakes life
    is unable to avoid. It encourages and nurtures new life,
    new experiences, new ways of expressing
    a love that is deeper than life.

    When two people pledge their love and care for each other in marriage,
    they create a spirit unique unto themselves which binds them closer
    than any spoken or written words.
    Marriage is a promise, a potential made in the hearts of two people
    who love each other and takes a lifetime to fulfill.

  6. I have my back turned to you.
    Everything is quiet.
    My ears are open though.
    I hear your shoes shuffling softly across the wooden panels of the floors.
    I feel the cushion of your fingers rest upon my shoulders.
    I smile.
    My guard was up, but it's no use.
    You burst through it like a shoes through a sand castle.
    I guess I'm just that vulnerable.
    Your eyes.
    So blue
    I feel like a small rowboat in a deep sea.
    I am being swallowed by the icy blue water.
    Just as I turn around to look you in those gorgeous eyes, your hands slip off my shoulders.
    Where did you go?
    I spin around, but you are gone.
    I knew it was to good to be true.
    This love will never be.
    Never.

  7. FORLORN AND THE STARS

    do you see the stars in the night sky?
    do you hear them speak or wink or sigh?
    a meter or more apart they are
    in the blankets of darkness they lie

    i never saw their cries nor their tears
    or even their guilt or twinge or fears
    but in loneliness with me they bear
    and in that solitude we are near.

  8. SWEET THORNS

    I held the rose too firmly,
    afraid that it may fall.
    Thorns pricked the flesh,
    blood flowed, blood crawled.

    Bloody, bloody rose!
    Let go before it pierce your bones.
    Let it fall!
    Save it not!

    Fall and may never be picked,
    by a fool that'll love so quick,
    Love fades!
    Love heals!

    One, two, three...
    How lovely a rose is!
    Another rose I picked,
    this time its for real,
    I think...

  9. PASSIONS JOURNEY...

    THEY SAY TRUE LOVE IS OVER RATED; FADING BY THE SIDELINES OF BYTIMES,OBSOLETE LIKE THE FIVE AND DIMES; CLUELESS OF PATIENTS; FOR IT PROMOTES TIME.


    LOVE GLIDES LIKE A MAGIC CARPET THROUGH THE RAINBOWS OF FOREVER, AND DOWN THE SLOPES OF MYSTERY; DASHING THROUGH TUNNELS OF AN UNKNOWN
    DESTINY, TO THE HIGHWAYS OF ECSTACY.

    FLOWING LIKE BLUE STREAMS. AND BREATHTAKING WATERFALLS, AND RAMPIT WATERS IN THE OCEAN WHEN A STORM...CALLS.

    LIKE SAND BLAZING THROUGH THE BREEZE FROM SEA TO SEA, CHASING DREAMS INTO THE TERMINALS OF LIFE'S EXPECTANTCIES.

    DOWN THE ALLEY WAYS OF TRIALS AND UP THE ROADS OF TRIVILATION. SPRINTING ON THE TRACKS TO THE HOMES OF COMMUNICATION

    PADDLING ON RAFTS OF LOYALTY, UP THE RIVERS OF HONESTY...FLOATING ON CLOUDS OF ETERNITY WHERE TRUE LOVE BLOSSOMS EXOTICALLY.

    BARGING THROUGH DOORWAYS OF HURT, STUMBLING DOWN STEPS OF PAIN, TO THE BASEMENT OF SUDDEN CHANGE, UP TO THE ATTIC OF DERANGED... DOWN
    PATHWAYS OF BLAME... INTO THE POOL OF SHAME...

    FLYING ON COMBATIVE PLANES TO THE ISLANDS OF LOVES WAR, LANDING ON THE PLANET OF DONT WANT TO LIVE ANYMORE

    WALKING THROUGH ACRES OF PLEASURE ON A BRISK WINTER DAY...THROUGH NATURES'S FOREST WHERE LOVE VOLTURES SCURRY FOR PREY.

    LIKE FLYING ON THE WINGS OF A HAWK THROUGH THE DUNGEONS OF LUST...UP MOUNTAINS AND DOWN TO THE VALLEYS OF THE MYSTERIOUS...

    TO THE AVENUE OF DEATH DO US PART, CRASHING THROUGH WINDOWS INTO ROOMS WITH SPLATTERED HEARTS.

    TRAVELING DOWN PATHS IN ECSTACY PARK WHERE NO ONE IS LONELY.

    SHOOTING TO THE MOON ON THE ROCKET OF...PASSIONS JOURNEY

  10. ANGEL DIVINE

    Author: Shawn Mikula

    Though star-blazed skies my mind contained,
    The solitude of night my heart concealed,
    Love's emotions were so fully restrained,
    Thus did I hide behind a self-made shield.

    And then you entered into my life,
    Bewildering feelings, dazed and confused,
    But you continued deeper like a knife,
    Until my hardness was thus subdued.

    What I never thought possible for me,
    You've done and that I'll always treasure,
    My heart burns fervent with love for thee,
    Our souls delight in each beyond all measure.

    And as you now place your sweet lips on mine,
    I know for certain I'm enraptured with an angel divine.

  11. I remember us,
    the way we used to be,
    I'd hold you in my arms,
    your smile so sweet to me,

    But now when I see you,
    you look right through me,
    I feel so alone now,
    but when I close my eyes...

    ...All I see is you.

    The love we used to share,
    gone up in whirl winds,
    will I ever love,
    or ever live again,

    I am tired of crying,
    and I am done trying,
    To remember all about you,
    but when I close my eyes...

    ...All I see is you.

    All the love I am sending,
    the memories I won't sell,
    I know there must be an ending,
    to the story I will tell,

    I love your smile
    and happiness in life,
    I try not to think of you,
    but when I close my eyes...
    I miss you

    THIS IS NOT LOVE
    BY : BARBIE QUEEN
    Dedicated to : My net Indian husband
    (dated : 12th October, 2011)


    This is not love
    This is my breath
    This is not love
    This is my only wound

    This is not love
    This is my only memory
    This is not love
    This is my only life

    This is not love
    This is my everything
    This is not love
    This is my world

    All the breath out
    All the breath in
    All the wounds happened
    All the memories scratched
    He is the one I always think

    Would like to replace
    Would like to put another
    Would like to stop
    Would like to run
    It is still there
    He is the one I always want

    Tears, cries, screams
    Only in my deep heart
    Sad, upset, depressed, obsessed
    Only in my deep mind
    And it is still there.....

    And it is still there
    This is not love
    This is my only dream
    He hugs me every night
    He is my only one
    His kisses erased every tear drops

    This is not love
    This is a marriage dream
    I ever had in my every dream
    Be in his warm hugs
    Always only him there with me
    In my dreamland of mind

  13. When You look at me: by Traci Owen

    When you look at me, my heart stops beating.
    When I see your name come up on my phone, my lungs stop breathing.
    So simple, the only thing I want you to do is smile.
    Seeing that one thing, makes all the pain worth while.


    If you want me to - by Traci Owen:

    I will always be there for you –
    If you want me to.
    I will forever be your friend -
    If you want me to.
    I will give you my heart –
    If you want me to.
    I will love you for all eternity –
    If you want me to.
    I’ll be your one and only –
    If you want me to
    I’ll walk down the isle in white –
    If you want me to.
    I will pledge the vows and yell out I do –
    If you want me to.

  18. I cannot promise you a life of sunshine,
    I cannot promise riches, wealth, or gold,
    I cannot promise you an easy pathway,
    That leads away from change or growing old.

    But I can promise all my heart's devotion,
    A smile to chase away your tears of sorrow,
    A love that's ever true and ever growing,
    A hand to hold in yours through each tomorrow.

  19. If I knew how to write a song
    I’d write one everyday
    It would say that I’m in love with you
    And why I feel this way

    It would have to say you’re pretty
    And as rare as a desert rose
    It would say you’re a looker
    From your head down to your toes

    You are funny, dainty, fragile
    And as feminine as can be
    You’re smart charming lovely
    And everything to me

    You’re my comfort when I’m lonely
    You’re my peace when I need rest
    Of all the women I’ve known
    I must rate you the best.

    You’re the orchard in the jungle,
    you’re the better half of me
    You’re all of this and so much more,
    you mean the world to me

    Still so much is left unsaid,
    It would take me far to long
    I know how much I love you,
    If only I could write a song.

  20. I love the way you look at me,
    Your eyes so bright and blue.
    I love the way you kiss me,
    Your lips so soft and smooth.

    I love the way you make me so happy,
    And the ways you show you care.
    I love the way you say, "I Love You,"
    And the way you're always there.

    I love the way you touch me,
    Always sending chills down my spine.
    I love that you are with me,
    And glad that you are mine.

  21. Love is like a lump of gold,
    Hard to get, and hard to hold.
    Of all the girls I've ever met,
    You're the one I can't forget.
    I do believe that God above,
    Created you for me to love.
    He chose you from all the rest,
    Because he knew I would love you best.

  22. Forward



    Who we are on our own is defined by choice

    We two, choose to be defined by love, trust and respect

    Hereafter, our bond not only frames us, but strengthens

    Affording us much more than what has come before

    You embody what I desire most

    Passion, acceptance, fairness and hope

    Claiming your friendship has its own prize

    Like your smile with that twinkle in your eye

    I pledge to honor, protect and live for this love

    With all I can conjure and manifest applied to this test

    Before you, no other could ever be placed above

    And against this fact no one can contest

    So go with me on tomorrow’s path

    Cheering each other on and checking the others math

    Bracing for the lows and rejoicing in the highs
    May we always turn our heads to look … Forward

  23. i met u on a warm sunny day
    caressing love as we sway
    we found each others hearts
    wondering why we were so far apart

    when really you was there from the start

    spending umpteen years
    preparing my tears
    for the day we share a life
    after they've thrown rice

    its not everyday u meet the one u want to marry
    but everyday i'll spend with the one i'll marry
    growth, family, hope, we'll fly together
    our love has an all new high forever
