| Xieng Kouang, the beautiful land Xieng Kouang, territory of paradise! Your coldness makes me quiver with shivers, And makes my whole body shake. The hills of Phoujong take shape like curves of lunar rays. (x2) Small floating clouds move, During full moon nights. Young women... Nāgas, divinities of the waves Immerse themselves in the heart of the waves, Radiating magnificence. The waters of the Ghiou river, immutably, spin (x 2) And one can perceive, at dusk, young girls in flowers bathing there. [Oh... My dear Xieng Kouang Province, I was never conscious once, You are endowed with such overflowing beauty! Now [appreciate] the landscapes of your peaks, (x 2) Morning and evening, I sit there, To contemplate the dazzling beauty of your mountain ranges. The Plain of Jars, emblem of Xieng Kouang, Swept by the breeze, Evokes in me nostalgia and daydreams, [The view] of overlapping peaks (x 2) Gives me such a feeling of happiness, Before the splendor of Xieng Kouang!] [x 2]
