An old friend of my friend Duongs' grandmother, sang these songs to me. She often kept on telling about the songs for a long time, but when I got the translation it usually wasn't any longer than a few sentences. So I'm not sure about the more subtle details of the text.
I recorded the songs in 2004, in the city of Bac Ninh, just outside Hanoi.
