| Lyric | Stories on Composing the Song |

Don’t ask me,

Don’t ask me why I am wandering—

Wandering to where?

Don’t ask me,

Don’t ask me where I am coming from;

My home is far away.

I left my lovely home

To begin this painful wandering

            With boundless misery filling my heart.

I left my lovely home

With no clues for the future.

Ten thousand miles of journeying,

Ten thousand miles of journeying—

What a puzzle!

I exist not only for myself,

But also for the future of humanity:

To search the heavens for the sake of humanity.

I exist not only for myself;

Therefore, I have to be extra strong

To create a path of freedom.

I have climbed a thousand mountains, crossed ten thousand waters,

Experienced a thousand obstacles, ten thousand bitter moments.

The future is clearer, clearer.

            The true, the good, and the beautiful extend their hands to me;

            The light of eternal beauty begins to unveil itself.

            The true, the good, and the beautiful extend their hands to me;

The light of eternal beauty begins to unveil itself,

                         unveil itself.
