[English]
Come out and see
At the bottom of the well, the pretty frog is me
I’m honest and simple, a country girl at heart
Going abroad, I’ll make everyone fall apart
From the plains to the mountains so grand
I’ll sing a few songs to delight the crowd at hand
I’m a young soul, full of life and cheer
Above the well’s bottom, I’m never idle, never fear
I dare to take on anything that comes my way
Because I know I’m Vietnamese, come what may
Woah-woah-woah-woah-woah-woah-woah (Okay)
