Phan Trần


Phan Trần is an anonymous Vietnamese language epic poem in lục bát verse originally written in Nôm script. It was first transcribed into the Latin-based modern Quốc ngữ Vietnamese alphabet in 1889.
There was a saying that "men should not tell the story of Phan Trần, women should not tell The Tale of Kiều" because the plot of Phan Trần concerns romantic emotions of a man, Phan Sinh, who falls in love with Diệu Thường a girl from the Trần family even though his parents have arranged another marriage.
