Lyrics
In the fading morning mist
I've longed for the village
I've been longing for it for years
I've longed for the old days
The scent of home
ah, the wharf where I ride the barge
Alone on the pier
Is that the person waving his hand?
The red tassel that's swaying in the tears
That time and that time and that time
It's still the same and it's still sinking in
the wharf you see from where you stand
my dream fades away, I'm slipping away
I'm here on my way home
Kindly greet me, my love for the mountains and rivers
Don't let me cry, don't let me cry
Gently, just as it is now
Ah, finally arriving at the wharf
