If u value life as a long journey, u must love this song.

It's sung by Taiwan born mix raced singer Chris Phillips, whose mother was from Shang Dong Province.



Hope the translation of lyrics spots the original Chinese.

Beyond the horizon is cloud drifting to me from my hometown
It is waving at me
Around me is the breeze gently blowing
It is bringing me a voice calling me to return
Inspired by that call, I stop wandering around

Accompanying by the call, I take the way back to hometown
That is so far away beyond the horizon though
Along the way with heavy footsteps, the breeze is gently blowing around
It is carrying to me the smell of aromatic soil of hometown
The voice is arising and lingering around : wander, it’s time to return

I am tired of wandering and drifting
I take heavy step with full of tiredness and tears of sorrow and grief
Along the way, the home wind and cloud erase the scars for me

I carried a dream of lofty expectations to see the world when I was young
On the returning road, I have nothing but an empty backpack.
Along the way back, the gentle breeze and clouds have been healing my wounds
Ah…

Marrie, I see you like Chinese music really. I have a question for you: What do you pay attention to most when listen to a song, its lyrics or rhythm? For this I concern rhythm most, that is why i can not memorize words of the song.
