Do you like the sky at night?

Pattering on my windowpane.

Translation Competition
Bạn có thích ngắm bầu trời đêm tối
Sao bồi hồi tỏa sáng ánh long lanh
Có thích không những buổi sáng mát xanh
Ngàn mây trắng lững lờ trôi phiêu lãng

Tôi thích lắm nắng sớm mai mùa hạ
Tỏa nhẹ nhàng theo mỗi bước chân ta
Thích những khi cuộn mình nghe mưa lạnh
Lộp độp rơi trên ô cửa hiên nhà.
Suggested translation



Do you like the sky at night
When the stars are shining bright?
Do you like it in the day
When the clouds all go away?
What I like is the morning sun
Shining on me when I run
And I aslo like the rain
Pattering on my windowpane
Em có thích bầu trời đêm tỏa sáng
Khi ngàn sao lấp lánh lung linh
Em có nhớ những hôm trời trong vắt
Với ngàn mây lờ lững trôi xa
Em yêu lắm những trưa hè nắng tỏa
Trải dài trên những bước em qua
Và yêu lắm những khi trời mưa lạnh
Lộp độp rơi trên ô cửa hiên nhà
