This song was actually written by William Arms Fisher
who was a composition student of Antonin Dvo?ák.
Fisher put words to the melody of the Largo theme
from "Dvo?ák's 9th" Symphony (Opus 95)
and called it "Goin' Home."
Symphony no. 9: From the New World is a symphony loosely
based on Longfellow's poem "Song of Hiawatha
****************************************
念 故 鄉
念故鄉念故鄉，故鄉真可愛
天甚清風甚涼，鄉愁陣陣來
故鄉人今如何，常念念不忘
在它鄉一孤客，寂寞又淒涼
我願意回故鄉，重返舊家園
眾親友聚一堂，同享從前樂……

Quiet like slip away
We are going home
…
Mother's there expecting me
Father's waiting too
Lots of faces gathered there
All the friends I knew
