Hi _andrew_-ga,

Below is the translation.  They are indeed love letters.  "Em yêu"
literally means "loved younger sibling", but it's always a term of
endearment from the man to the woman in a romantic relationship. 
Below, I have translated it as "sweetheart".

===================================Translation begins=========================
Deep feelings!

Anh, 

For me, yesterday...was memorable (if not unforgetable)...The feeling
was very intense...I can't describe them all to you!!!  You were
right..., feelings are...never enough...and perhaps that "lacking"
will make us yearn for/miss each other more and make our story more
interesting...!! We had a beautiful evening together, and above all
very intense, romantic memories...very hard to forget!!!

I will be thinking of very much!!!!!

Em
 
PS: Thanks for the song!!!


Sweetheart, allow me one more time to call you "sweetheart".  I waited
for your mail since this morning.  Do you think I was right?  The
closer we are together , the more we feel that we need each other.  I
was afraid that this would happen, once you leave.  I feel very happy
to have a small place in your heart that contains the beautiful
memories [that we had together], like you also have a part of my
heart.

Nho em,


P.S. This is the song "Trái tim nhi?u ng?n" [The many-portioned heart]
composed by Tr?n Ti?n, performed by the singer Nguyên V?, the song I
told you about this morning

Enjoy,

Anh

Hello secret901 and thank you again,

These are very clearly love letters with intense emotions.  I have two questions:

"I will be thinking of very much!!!!!"  There is a word missing here
is it "you" or "the night" or "us"??

Also the last letter ends "nho em".  How would that be translated?

Secret901,

I should have thanked you for providing the link to the song and the
Vietnamese lyrics that was referenced in the letter.  Can you please
give me an idea of what the song is about?

Oops, I should have proofread before answering :-).  It should be "I
will be thinking of you very very very...very much!!!!!".  "Nh? em"
can be translated as "thinking of you".

About the song, as you might expect, it's about loving someone who's
had many admirers.  The singer claims that he will continue to love
her even though the others will stop.  All he wants is a tiny portion
of her heart (metaphorically, of course ;-)).
