The Life Mirage

Bài dịch Anh ngữ của Binh Nhung:

You post the poem depicting life 's mirage
Enticing me to question my existence .
Where is bliss, around me is only sorrow,
As shown in those poetic lines.

Through the verses, an abundant dream was cast
With musical phrases tearing my soul,
In future lyrics not yet written,
I see myself among seeds of sadness .

Is it true that life is pretense,
Across the tapestry of verses , tears are shed ,
While searching in the mirage ,
A little truth or lie as answers .

Are you settled in this life 's destination ?
In this corner , guards the Virgin Mother ,
For , during the Holy Night many eons ago ,
Christ has forgotten you and me .
