Ca dao has long been considered to be the soul of the Vietnamese folk poetry through which the inner beauty, ingenuity, passions, wisdom, teachings and wishes of the Vietnamese people are shown alongside the charming yet ever so familiar images associated with the rustic countryside villages. In this book, the translator has selected a total of 101 ca dao songs on different topics and translate them into English while trying his best to maintain not only the words and meanings but also the melodic forms which make ca dao is so popular and charming in Vietnam. Even though this book does not fully display the complete beauty of ca dao, it does offer readers a small taste of Vietnam's enduring folk poetry.
