The Wedding Ceremony [Dju Vui Vai]

GIRLS
One of us girls is moving on
One girl will get out of saigon
GIGI
So now who’s really Miss Saigon
GIRLS

And Elvis Presley on cassettes

You did a job on him I guess

He simply asked me
I said, «yes»
GIRLS
Come on, let’s bless the new princess
GIRLS
Dju vui vay
Yu doi my

KIM
Will you give me life smile today
Look with favoring eyes on this man
Show your daughter’s heart your forgiveness
And send to us
From your home above
Your blessing on our love
