Uploader's comment: "As we grow up, some things gradually grow further and further apart. We wander around in the outside world, all alone by ourselves. When we're alone we think back to our faraway hometown, and our family members who aren't by our side. It's so ;_; (I-I can't handle this right now I really want to go home...)

Long time no upload! School is still destroying me, but I couldn't not sub this when I saw it. Hopefully the title doesn't sound too awkward -- I tried to keep the phrase "Jasmine Flower" in it, since this piece is kind of based on the super well-known folk song Mo Li Hua ("Jasmine Flower"). I actually started tearing up when I heard those parts haha;; If it sounds familiar, you might recognize it from Yan He's first demo! • 【言和 - Yan He】茉莉花 - Mo Li Hua【Chinese...

The poem in the beginning is a really famous one by the poet Meng Jiao. I used Witter Bynner's translation -- he translated the title (遊子吟) as "A Traveler's Song." I chose to use his translation rather than translate it myself since a lot of my understanding is really lacking (especially philosophy, historical context, etc) so I definitely wouldn't be able to do a better job. I'll translate the text that appears in the background starting from 3:04 when I have more time later /sobs ;_;
