Ngày Tết, Mị cũng uống rượu. Mị lén lấy hũ rượu, cứ uống ực từng bát. Rồi say, Mị lịm mặt ngồi đấy nhìn mọi người nhảy đồng, người hát, nhưng lòng Mị đang sống về ngày trước. Tai Mị văng vẳng tiếng sáo gọi bạn đầu làng. Ngày trước, Mị thổi sáo giỏi. Mùa xuân này, Mị uống rượu bên bếp và thổi sáo. Mị uốn chiếc lá trên môi, thổi lá cũng hay như thổi sáo. Có biết bao nhiêu người mê, cứ ngày đêm thổi sáo đi theo Mị .

    Rượu đã tan lúc nào. Người về, người đi chơi đã vãn cả. Mị không biết. Mị vẫn ngồi trơ một mình giữa nhà.Mãi sau Mị mới đứng dậy, nhưng Mị không bước ra đường. Mị từ từ bước vào buồng. Chẳng năm nào A Sử cho Mị đi chơi Tết. Bấy giờ Mị ngồi xuống giường, trông ra cái cửa sổ lỗ vuông mờ mờ trăng trắng. Đã từ nãy, Mị thấy phơi phới trở lại, trong lòng đột nhiên vui sướng như những đêm Tết ngày trước. Mị trẻ lắm, Mị vẫn còn trẻ. Mị muốn đi chơi. Bao nhiêu người có chồng cũng đi chơi ngày Tết. Huống chi A Sử với Mị, không có lòng với nhau mà vẫn phải ở với nhau!Nếu có nắm lá ngón trong tay lúc này, Mị sẽ ăn cho chết ngay, chứ không buồn nhớ lại nữa. Nhớ lại, chỉ thấy nước mắt ứa ra. Mà tiếng sáo gọi bạn yêu vẫn lửng lơ bay ngoài đường.

              Anh ném pao,em không bắt

             Em không yêu,quả pao rơi rồi..
