Dara Rasavanh: Ngum hod Meuang Tai

"Ngum Hod Meuang Tai" Taidam song by Dara Rasavanh, Music composed by Jimmy Luong from DM, IA. Meaning of the song: In my dream, I had longed to see my homeland, Meuang Tai. The valleys surrounded by many mountain highs. The morning sun peaks through the clouds of fogged from earth reaching to heaven. Sonla and Dien Bien Phou, the city that one must see. I hear the people laugh, I heard the youth sing, and how I longed to be... Now that I my eyes have seen, my hands had touched, not only in my dreams... but in my memories for they shall be... and live forever in me.

I understand most of the meaning. I am Tai Shan. The song is so sad that she is singing about Ngum Hod Meuang Tai. That why all Tai are separated.

Thank you for your kind comment.

Sorry, the video may not have the scene from Dien Bien, but it does contain many scenes from Sonla. As the matter of fact my grand-mother lives there.
