I left home young, now returned as my age got up.
鄉音無改鬢毛衰。
My accent remained unchanged, but little thin on top.
兒童相見不相識，
All kids regarded me as a stanger, when met me,
笑問客從何處來。
so they smiled, " where are you from, Pop?"
PS A college classmate of mine told me the other day that he saw this popular poem inscrbed on a slate set in some park of Nankang county. Maybe there are other poems can be found in the park, too. Good job, Taipei!
