Ahh that is the interesting part and a lot of what the show is about. There are some good English translations (and some poor ones). All were from Quốc Ngữ to English though.
There are very few English speaking Nôm scholars. The only ones I know are too busy (or to old) to do it. They have their research agendas.
What’s nuts is even from Chữ Nôm to Quốc Ngữ a lot is lost. Nguyễn Du was being so clever, skillful and cautious with what he wrote. Puns. Sexual innuendo. Political stuff that could have got him killed. He was hiding that in the specific Chữ he chose. Totally brilliant.
By far very best English translation is this one.

This one is good too but simplified and outdated. Still a classic and beautifully illustrated in its original editions.
