Ban than toi oi, cuoc doi la coi tam
Nhung lua giau sang hay song trong ngheo kho
Cuoi cung cung phai nam duoi lop dat sau
Tro ve cat bui, sang hen deu nhu nhau…

Doi khong nhu mo, nhieu dieu that bat ngo
Nguoi vua cuoi day, mai da khong con nua
Kiep nguoi ngan ngui, vua chop mat da xa
Xac than ngoc nga cung hoa cat bui ma…

Thi nguoi oi xin dung ghanh ghet nhau
Dung gieo nhung thuong dau, dung cha dap nhau nua
Song dung de ai buon, song sao khong ho then
Song cho cuoc doi thuong…

Ban than toi oi, minh se ve cat bui
Tra lai tran gian nhung dang cay buon tui
Song tron kiep nguoi chang tiec nuoi voi ai
Chan tinh de lai nguoi doi con nhac hoai…
