(the bar-girls are helping KIM to move into the new room she is to share
with CHRIS. They set up a small shrine and photos of KIM'S parents.
KIM and CHRIS appear.)

GIRLS                  KIM (echoing)
dju vui vay            dju vui vay
yu doi my              yu doi my
dju vui vay            dju vui vay
vao nyay moy

KIM
will you give me life smile today
look with favouring 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                  CHRIS
dju vui vay            it's pretty but what does it mean?

GIRLS                  KIM
yu doi my              it's what all the girls sing at weddings

(CHRIS looks up, startled)

GIRLS                  KIM
dju vui vay            they didn't know what else to sing

GIRLS                  CHRIS
vao nyay moy           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
Miss Saigon!

GUESTS
Miss Saigon!
