Nco Txog Hmoob - Xf. Txawj Pes Vaj & Fishermen's Project (Live Session) [Lyric Video]

While we were doing our VBS in Thailand last year, we got the chance to meet Xf Txawj Pes and the wonderful (& talented!) kids of his foundation. During the open mic time, we heard this song by Xf Txawj Pes and we were captivated by it! We’re so glad to have had the opportunity share this song together with you all! May the wonderful memoir of this song give you a humbling perspective of a simple and beautiful early life!

HMONG Lyrics:

kuv tseem nco txog lub tsev hmoob nyob saum roob
lub tsev xov xyoob vov nplooj nyob nruab hav zoov
pog yawg laus laus zaum tsaw ntawm ntug cub
niam sawv ua tshais thaum tsi tau kaj ntug

xav txog mas ca yuav zoo siab ua luaj
txawm yog thaum ntawd yuav nyob txomnyem ntsuav
peb ua si nplawg ntia ntawm txiv lub xub ntiag
xav txog mas ua rau kuv kuamuag ntws kiag

Yog tias muaj ib hnub
Yog tias kuv tau mus
Kuv xav rov qab pom
Lub tsev vov nplooj ntoos
Yog tias muaj ib hnub
Yog tias kuv tau mus
Kuv xav rov qab pom
Lub tsev vov nplooj nqeeb

Kuv tseem nco txog thaum nplooj xyoob nplooj ntoos zeeg
nco txog thaum kuv cov plaub hau tseem ntxhee yees
tsis muaj fais fab tsis muaj nab pas pas
da dej txia xwb tsis muaj dej kub da
thaum lo nag cas zoo tsaug zog ua luaj
peb pw ib txaj ntsawm nkaus ntawm txaj qhuas
qhov cub qhov txos ncho pa puv lub tsev
xav txog mas nco lub neej thaum tseem me me

Yog tias muaj ib hnub
Yog tias kuv tau mus
Kuv xav rov qab pom
Lub tsev vov nplooj ntoos
Yog tias muaj ib hnub
Yog tias kuv tau mus
Kuv xav rov qab pom
Lub tsev vov nplooj nqeeb
Ib zaug ntxiv

nimno peb hmoob nqis los nyob nruab moos
muaj vaj muaj tsev nrog luag nyob hauv plawv nroog
txhua yim muaj tv thiab muaj tub yees
muaj internet ua lub neej vam meej
tus me tub los nrog luag muaj xov tooj
pw ua ntsais nyia xua nyia lub iphone
lub neej nimno tsi thooj yav tag los
xav txog mas ua rau kuv kuamuag ntws nto

ENGLISH Lyrics:

I still remember the Hmong house that sits on top of the mountain
The house of bamboo and leaves in the jungle
My old Grandma and Grandpa sitting by the fire in the kitchen
Mom waking to cook breakfast before the dawn

When I think about it, it brings me so much joy.
Even though during those times we were so poor
We would play around in front of our father
When I think about it, a tear falls down
If there is one day
If I have a chance to go
I want to return and see that home covered in leaves
If there is one day
If I have a chance to go
I want to see that home with the roof made of leaves
I still remember when the leaves shed in the fall
Missing when the wind blew through my hair
Having no electricity and no running water
Bathed in cold water, no hot water at all

When it rained we slept so well
We all slept on one bed, right next to the guest bed
The fireplace smoked and filled the whole house
When I think it about it, it makes me miss life when I was little
If there is one day
If I have a chance to go
I want to return and see that home covered in leaves
If there is one day
If I have a chance to go
I want to see that home with the roof made of leaves
One more time
Today the Hmong have come to live in the city
Having houses, living with others in the heart of the city
Every household having a TV and a refrigerator
Having internet and living a successful life
The little boy has a cell-phone like the others
Laying down, playing with their iPhone
This life now is not like the past
When I think about it, my tears keep rolling
If there is one day
If I have a chance to go
I want to return and see that home covered in leaves
If there is one day
If I have a chance to go
I want to see that home with the roof made of leaves
One more time
