Deep, emotional Vietnamese folk ballad with đàn bầu carrying the main melody, gentle phách and trống cơm pulse. Female vocals, warm and plaintive, with subtle call-and-response backing in the chorus. Sparse acoustic backing (đàn tranh, sáo trúc) that swells slightly on refrains, leaving space for long, bending notes and expressive vibrato. Intimate, storytelling verses; chorus lifts with more breath and harmonies, then falls back to a soft, lingering outro.
