Tet/Chinese New Year Vietnam Phrases?

With Tet coming up, our parents this year want us to do our research and to come up with some good wishes in Vietnamese. They're tired of the same wishes every year, so we have to provide something fresh. What are some short, but not too short phrases that can be memorized and said to them before receiving our red envelopes? If possible, I'm asking for differentiated wishes but still effective, as opposed to the usual ones.Thanks!

there will be a lot of "chuc-ing" [well wishing back and forth].. enjoi. "chuc" [ pronounced "chup"]...means "wish"... so everything is usually preceeded by "chup";
"chuc mung nam moi"; wish happy new year[litterally]
"chuc ban va gia dinh thanh cong, suc khoe, binh anh, nhat la hanh phuc trong nam moi va suot doi"
ban ;friend
gia dinh [pronounced "yah dinh"or "za dinh"]; family
va; and
thanh cong; success
suc khoe[ pronounced "su quair"]; health
binh anh; peace
nhat la; esspecially
hanh phuc; happyness
trong; within
nam moi; new year[ litterally -"year new"]
va suot doi; and throughout [their] lifes..
i hope this is clear..mix and match words as you wish.. the vietnamese are very understanding. write down diffrent combonations and practice..
and from ong jon to all of you, "chuc mung nam moi...chuc hoa binh trong the gioi......"

Here's a list:

Chúc Mừng Năm Mới = Happy New Year
Chúc Mừng Tân Niên = Happy New Year also
Chúc Dồi Dào Sức Khá»e Sống HÆ¡n Trăm Tuổi = I wish you boundless health and to live over 100 years
Năm mới ... chúc ... = In the new year ... wish ...
Nhiá»u Hạnh Phúc - Lots of happiness
Năm Mới Phát Tài = (I wish you) A prosperous new year
Vạn Sự Như à - 10,000 affairs go your way (Everything you want you'll get)

Example to parents:

Năm má»›i con chúc (mẹ/cha) dồi dào sức khá»e, vạn sá»± như ý và má»™t năm má»›i phát tài và mong rằng năm nay sẻ mang nhiá»u may mắn và hạnh phúc (cho nguyên gia đình)

In the new year I want to wish (mum/dad) lots of health, and for things to go your way and a prosperous new year and I also hope the new year will bring lots of luck and happiness (for all the familly)

Alright here goes.
"Chuc bo me moi nam khoe manh, suc khoe roi rao. Va chuc bo me moi su nhu y. Va chuc bo me lam gia nhieu tien, tien vao nhu nuoc nhung chay ra dot nuoc"

English, corny translation.
Wish dad and mom healthy, and always be. Wish dad and mom's wishes will alway be achieve. Wish dad and mom make a lot of money like how a river flow in, and spent money like droplet of water.

Try to say that htis year you will be good, make good grade
Kinda like christmas.

All I have heard people say for western New Year and for Tet is:

Chuc mung nam moi. There are other phrases I have read but not heard (and don't have them here at the moment, sorry.)
