Nha Trang, the white sand beach
My "home" when I was a kid
White sand as soft as baby powder
Soft waves, beautiful shells, I remembered
"Home" sweet home, I have left
Broken shells are all I kept
Passing wind from East to West
Bringing white sand to my breath
California, here I stay
"New home" at this new place
Heart is here! But where is soul?
Without soul, heart feels so cold.
"New home", begins my foundation
Extend my love, rebuild my reputation,
From the past to the future
Rebuild my home all together
Nha Trang is my soul
Begins my life, memories unfold
California is my heart
Cherish it the opportunity I have got
My soul remains in Nha Trang
My heart keeps at California
Heart and soul are in my mind
Together they are always mine
Home sweet home where I have stayed
In the past, and as of today
Home sweet home, I am here
Nha Trang-California, are mine to cheer.
