When I was young,
 my homesickness was a small stamp,
 I was here,
 my mother was there.
 After growing up,
 my homesickness was a narrow ticket,
 I was here,
 my bride was there.
 Later,
 my homesickness was a little tomb,
 I was outside,
 my mother was inside.
 And now,
 my homesickness is a shallow strait,
 I am here,
 the mainland is there.
