Lyrics
I remember all the stories
I recall all the stories
I remember all the tears
I recall all the tears
I remember every lecture
I recall every lecture
You gave me to my history
You imparted to me my history
You gave me all the finest clothes
You provided me with the finest clothes
Gave me to me
You gave me what I needed the most
What I needed the most
Early mornings, later nights
Early morning, later nights
Talking about what the future holds
Talkin' bout what the future holds
Gentle reminders
Gentle reminders
To never let my life go
To never let my life go
You said to me
You said to me
Be a good person
Ua neeg zoo
Be a respectful person
Ua neeg tsim txiaj
You said to me
You said to me
Be careful with your words
Nco ntsoov hais tias
Because you are
Koj yeej yog
A Daughter of Hmong
Me Nyuam HMoob
From all the stupid little fights
From all the stupid little fights
To all the goodness in your soul
To all the goodness in your soul
I took from you what I needed the most
I took from you what I needed the most
I took some heart
I took some heart
Took some fight
Took some fight
Took some sun
Took some sun
To spread the light
To spread the light
Took the tongue
Took the tongue
You spoke with love
You spoke with love
I wanted to be your home
I wanted to be your home
I wanted to be
I wanted to be
A good daughter
Koj tus me nyuam zoo
You said to me
You said to me
Be a good person
Ua neeg zoo
Be a respectful person
Ua neeg tsim txiaj
You said to me
You said to me
Be careful with your words
Nco ntsoov hais tias
Because you are
Koj yeej yog
A Daughter of Hmong
Me Nyuam HMoob
-Koj yeej yog
