Love everything about this song! It's awesome that you included Hmong girls from Minnesota and California!

Love it! 💕❤️ Such a beautiful tribute to all Hmong girls around the world! I was moved to tears by Triciti Thao's solo guitar performance at the end. Just WOW! Hmong girls breaking barriers in so many spaces with so much talent! Thanks so much for embracing and highlighting Hmong girls in this piece! Wishing you continued success in your music career!

LYRICS:

(0:18)
Nyob Zoo
Nyob Zoo
Am I saying it right or I’m wrong?
I’m just tryna get you alone
Baby can you dance to this song?

(0:28)
I know that I ain’t sayin it right
But I been tryna talk to you all night
Your fair skin really glows in the light
And it’s unfair that you wore what that I like

You cast spells like a Shaman do
I really can’t take my eyes off you
The way you smile it could make the news
Like how you killed every dude in the room

(0:45)
If girls these pretty
Really in my city
Then I might get silly
If one dances with me

(0:56)
C’mon, c’mon
Take one step forward if you Hmong
Then one step back just for fun
Then clap your hands cause!

(1:04)
This one’s for Hmong girls
Pretty and grown girls
City to home girls
Silly and strong girls
This one’s for Hmong girls

Aye, Ah, Aye
This one’s for Hmong girls

(1:32)

Kuv hlub koj
(Gu hloo ga/ I love you)

Do you see me in your future
I don’t ever wanna lose ya

Koj puas xav mus nrog kuv nyob
(Ga bua sah moo dawh gu Nyah)
(Do you want to be with me)

Vim kuv nyiam koj
(Vee gu nyeah ga)
(Because I like you)

I want you to be my baby
Will you be my lady

Kuv xav hnia koj
(Gu sah hnneah ga [abruptness])
(I want to kiss you)

(1:52)
Aye, ahh, aye, ahh, aye
This one’s for Hmong Girls
Aye, ahh, aye, ahh, aye
This one’s for Hmong Girls

(2:10)
C’mon, c’mon
Take one step forward if you Hmong
Then one step back just for fun
Then clap your hands cause!

(2:16)
This one’s for Hmong girls
Pretty and grown girls
City to home girls
Silly and strong girls

(2:26)
This one’s for Hmong girls
Aye, ahh, aye, ahh, aye

Zaj no yog rau Nkauj Hmoob
(Xaah noh yaw tdao gao Hmong)
(This one’s for the Hmong girls)

Aye, ahh, aye, ahh, aye

Zaj no yog rau Nkauj Hmoob
(Xaah noh yaw tdao gao Hmong)
(This one’s for the Hmong girls)

Aye, ahh, aye, ahh, aye

Zaj no yog rau Nkauj Hmoob
(Xaah noh yaw tdao gao Hmong)
(This one’s for the Hmong girls)

[tailaoshan]

This is awesome SOAL congratulations! My son who is 10 years old is a big fan of yours and other Lao artists. We were at Sabaidee fest Dallas and he was recording you on his phone and you reached your hand out for his phone but he didn’t know what to do and he backed off lol. He was so happy and excited that you came back around and took pictures with him. It was his most memorable night ever, thank you very much for taking time to meet him personally, it was very kind of you! it definitely made an impression on him. He actually found this song and sent it to me to watch, lol.

[maidiaxiong]
