When I was in Pulau Bidong in the early 80s, the camp administration used to play this song when people are leaving camp for Kuala Lumpur or Sungei Besey (spelling?) and another camp for those who choose Canada. Those who left camp in the Black Gold may not have experienced this event.
@vinhyersin yes. also there was another song that would be played as the sun was setting to mark the end of the day. do you know where i would be able to find that song? or what it is called? i believe the song is about two friends leaving and promising to meet again. it was in the context that the "friend" is vietnam. i only wish my vietnamese is good enough to translate or spell it out.
Ernest Hemingway said:"before and after him, VN has only the best music composer. He's turned simple words to the beautiful poem-song. He is TCS". That's true.
beautifully sung and wonderfully written. This pair of singer-song writer has made a long lasting impression on Vietnamese songs. I like other song writers as well such as Ngo Thuy Mien..etc but Trinh Cong Son's always has a special place in my heart...
when we talk about vnmese music the first songwriter is TRINH CONG SON when we talk about TRINH CONG SON music we talk about KHANH LY ..so many singer sing his song but KHANH LY s the one and only who can make it lives throught so many many generation ...i love it since first time i listen and i still do until i did..ohh..i wish i can find the collection of KHANH LY - TRINH CONG SON ...
Trinh Cong Son uses Vietnamese in song perfectly. And Khanh Ly sings Vietnamese beautifully. Who use their father-language prefectly, they are father-land lovers.
man this is something my mom would listen to... I don't really understand it to much but it sounds alright because im viet hehehhe... I understand half of what she says but not all wish I did.... hate being born in america know to much english than my own viet.. sighs..
It is so nostalgic to listen to this song. Thanks for posting this classic

Trinh Cong Son is one of the greatest song writers of our time.
His music is timeless
His song lyrics are very poetic, the lyrics are soul and mind wrenching.
Khanh Ly takes all Son's songs to another level.
