Dju Vui Vay lyrics

GIRLS
One of us girls is moving on
One girl will get out of saigon

GIGI
So now who's really Miss Saigon

GIRLS
Tv and stereo she gets
And Elvis Presley on cassettes

(KIM and CHRIS enter)

GIRLS
Look how he bought her a new dress
You did a job on him I guess

KIM
He simply asked me
I said, "yes"

GIRLS
Come on, let's bless the new princess

GIRLS
Dju vui vay
Yu doi my
Dju vui vay
Vao nyay moy

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

GIRLS, KIM (echoing)
Dju vui vay -- dju vui vay
Yu doi my -- yu doi my
Dju vui vay -- dju vui vay
Vao nyay moy

GIRLS
Dju vui vay

CHRIS
It's pretty but what does it mean?

GIRLS
Yu doi my

KIM
It's what all the girls sing at weddings

(CHRIS looks up, startled)

GIRLS
Dju vui vay

KIM
They didn't know what else to sing

GIRLS
Vao nyay moy

CHRIS
It's the prettiest thing that I've ever heard

(Friends arrive carrying beer and a platter of food.
The party gathers around the bed, and GIGI leads a toast to KIM.)

GIGI
To Miss Saigon!

GUESTS
Miss Saigon!
