First Line/s Today is Tet/ the first day/ of the lunar calendar
Every Tet/ we eat sugary lotus seeds/ and glutinous rice cakes./ We all wear new clothes,/ even underneath
Mother warns/ how we act today/ foretells the whole year.
Everyone must smile/ no matter how we feel.
No one can sweep,/ for why swap away hope?/ No one can splash water,/ for why splash away joy?
