Co Tu Smile

There was a t'mooi chr'nap (*) visiting the Co Tu village, which was as joyful as a festival where the large communal house suddenly became crowded because of the large crowd of villagers.

Outer ring inner ring
men, women, the elderly, and children
healthy young men and women
flirtatious smiling eyes

Close to the clouds
friends with high mountains in the border region
hunger and pain have receded into the distance
The village elder happily told the story.

New life today
forever gone smoky sadness
border guards hands work mouth talk
help people eliminate hunger and reduce poverty

Everyone has stopped being lonely.
bright Co Tu smile
T'mooi chr'nap first reunion
happy village talk about bowl of t'din (**) …

--------------

(*) In Co Tu language, it means honored guest.
(**) Co Tu people's wine is made from the juice of the tr'din tree.
