The Lyrics
Let’s delve into the lyrics of “See Tình” (English Translation) by Hoàng Thuỳ Linh:
[Verse 1]
Hey hey hey hey
Why do I feel dizzy even though we just met?
Hey b-baby
What kind of enchantment you put on that had me fall for you?
Bae bae bae bae
Right from the beginning, baby can you stay?
Tomorrow I’ll seek a fortune teller
When is the wedding day when my house is so full of children?
[Refrain]
If just one saying can make you happy, (i ya, i ya)
I wouldn’t stop talking so that you’d be smiling all day long. (Na-na-na)
If I were to do so, would that make me a fool? (Cra-crazy, that’s so crazy)
Take me to the madhouse, take me to the madhouse
Take me to your house to madly love you!
[Pre-Chorus]
The moment I met you, I knew I saw love
L-L-L-L-Love
L-L-L-L-Love you
The moment I met you, I knew I saw love
Love doesn’t need any plan
Plans make our love break
[Chorus]
Yeah, yeah
What are you up to? What are you gon’ do now?
Yeah, yeah
What are you up to? What are you gon’ do now?
[Verse 2]
Wherever it takes, or whatever
I don’t even know where
If it’s hard to love, hard not to love
I don’t know what to do
UV rays penetrate the sky tonight
You’re like the UV ray that goes straight through my heart
Please help me
I feel like I’m dying
[Refrain]
If just one saying can make you happy, (i ya, i ya)
But saying one more would make you sad. (Na-na-na)
If I were to do so, would that make me a fool? (Cra-crazy, that’s so crazy)
Take me to the madhouse, take me to the madhouse
Take me to your house to madly love you!
[Pre-Chorus]
The moment I met you, I knew I saw love
L-L-L-L-Love
L-L-L-L-Love you
The moment I met you, I knew I saw love
Love doesn’t need any plan
Plans make our love break
[Chorus]
Yeah, yeah
What are you up to? What are you gon’ do now?
Yeah, yeah
What are you up to? What are you gon’ do now?
[Outro]
The moment I met you, I knew I saw love
