Bop nat suc song em bang tieng ca
Bop nat suc song em qua dieu nhac
Bang loi diu dang anh giet em, giet chet trai tim em
Bang tieng ca ru em trong u me, va xot xa nham mat voi noi dau
Ngot lim da....

I heard he sang a good song
I heard he had a style
And so I came to see him and listen for a while
And there he was this young boy
A stranger to my eyes...

Strumming my pain with his fingers
Singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly with his song
Telling my whole life with his words
Killing me softly
With his song….

Ngoi nghe anh hat thien tinh ca
Ngo nhu dat troi giao hoa
Va tai nghe thay mot rung am vang khuc hat dang doi ta
Co cay muon loai dieu han hoan
Nhung rieng em tuong nhu anh...

Bop nat suc song em bang tieng ca
Bop nat suc song em qua dieu nhac
Bang loi diu dang anh giet em, giet chet trai tim em
Bang tieng ca ru em trong u me, va xot xa nham mat voi noi dau
Ngot lim da....

I felt all flushed with fever
Embarrassed by the crowd
I felt he found my letters and read each one out loud
I pray that he would finish
But he just kept right on...

Bop nat suc song em bang tieng ca
Bop nat suc song em qua dieu nhac
Bang loi diu dang anh giet em, giet chet trai tim em
Bang tieng ca ru em trong u me, va xot xa nham mat voi noi dau
Ngot lim da....

Strumming my pain with his fingers
Singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly with his song
Telling my whole life with his words
Killing me softly
With his song... oo oo oo oo
