Lyrics

Đêm nay thu sang cùng heo may

Đêm nay sương lam mờ chân mây

Thuyền ai lờ lững trôi theo giòng

Như nhớ thương ai trùng tơ lòng.

Trong cây hơi thu cùng heo may

vi vu qua muôn cành mờ say.

Miền xa lời gió vang thông ngàn

Ai oán thương ai tàn mơ vàng

Lướt

theo chiều gió

một con thuyền

theo

trăng trong

Trôi

trên sông Thương

nước chảy

đôi giòng.

Biết

đâu bờ bến

Thuyền ơi thuyền

trôi

nơi đâu?

Trên

con sông Thương

nào ai biết

nông sâu?

Nhớ khi chiều sương

cùng ai trắc ẩn

tấm lòng

Biết bao buồn thương

thuyền mơ buông trôi xuôi giòng.

Bến mơ dù thiết tha thuyền ơi!

đừng chờ mong.

Ánh

trăng mờ chiếu,

Một con thuyền

trong

đêm thâu.

Trên

sông bao la

Thuyền mơ bến

nơi đâu?

Đêm nay thu sang cùng heo may.
