Ancient poems written by fellow villagers

Return young

Tang Dynasty: He Zhangzhi

Young people leave home, old people return, and the local accent has not changed.

When children meet strangers, they will smile and ask where the guests are from.

Leave your hometown when you are young and return to your hometown when you are old. Although my local accent hasn't changed, my hair on my temples has become sparse.

Children in my hometown don't even know me when they see me. They smiled and asked me: Where are you from?
