Wanderer's Song Comments

the poem, in its original text, should have 6 verse. So the finale should be: ''Could repay the warmth and brilliance of the Springs? '' Well, a help by Chinese readers would be much appreciated.. I've been told that ''Wanderer's Song'' is well known in China and that it has a special meaning for Chinese people living abroad. Is it right? The poem speaks of the bond between a mother and her son. The mother weaves her love with the thread she sews on the son’s clothes, as she hopes that her son, who's leaving his parent's home, may return one day.

遊子吟 Yóuzǐ Yín [wanderer][] [hum] Song of the Wanderer 慈母手中線， Címǔ shǒuzhōng xiàn, [compassionate] [mother] [hand] [in] [thread] Thread in the hand of a compassionate mother - 遊子身上衣； yóuzǐ shēnshang yī. [wander] [song] [body] [on] [clothes] clothes on a wandering son; 臨行密密縫， Lín xíng mì mi fèng, [just before] [travel] [close] [close] [sew] just before his departure she sewed closely, 意恐遲遲歸。 yì kǒng chí chí guī. [think] [fear] [late] [late] [return] in her mind worrying about his late return. 誰言寸草心， Shéi yán cùn cǎo xīn, [who] [speak] [inch] [grass] [heart] Who would say that the heart of inch-high grass 報得三春暉？ bào de sān chūnhuī? [repay] [achieve] [three] [spring] [shine] could repay the sunshine of deepest spring?

even translated, I would say it's a lovely poem, but it's a pity I can't read it in its original language..
