co doi khi - sometimes

Co doi khi neu ban bang rung cach than trong
Sometimes if you move carefully
through the forest,

Ran nin tho nhu doan nguoi trong truyen tich xua,
breathing
like the ones
in the old stories,

Luot tren dem la ong a khong chut xao dong,
who could cross
a shimmering bed of leaves
without a sound,

Ban den mot noi kia
Noi no chi lam mot viec
Do la quay ray ban
boi nhung doi hoi nho nhat
Nhung khung khiep
you come to a place,
whose only task
is to trouble you
with tiny
but frightening requests,

Chung duoc hoai thai tu dau khong biet
Nhung o cho nay
chung bat dau dan toi khap noi.
conceived out of nowhere
but in this place
beginning to lead everywhere.

Chung doi ban buong bo nhung gi
ban dang lam luc nay,
Requests to stop what
you are doing right now,

Va gia tu dieu ban dang tro thanh
trong khi ban thuc hien,
and
to stop what you
are becoming
while you do it,

Nhung cau hoi kha di kien tao hoac huy mot doi song,
questions
that can make
or unmake
a life,

Nhung cau hoi ma dang kien nhan cho doi ban,
questions
that have patiently
waited for you,

Nhung cau hoi ma khong co quyen bien mat.
questions
that have no right
to go away.
