Seems like sunrise is here. The elders, descendants and everyone.
Seems like this entire time, we made offers to yours ancestors, finished the ceremony.
our blessings are your father’s blessings. Our words are your father’s words.
Seems like this entire time, the oldest sons we gave hats. The youngest sons we gave shoes.
We’ve taught the oldest to be generals, we’ve taught the youngest to be leaders.
Seem like we packed wisdom on your backs, blessings in your arms.
Seems like sunrise is here, sunrise will bring shadows, morning will bring light
The sun is rising, it’s time to prepare for your father’s departure. It’s time for your father to leave
It’s your father’s time to go his way, your father will leave his house
Sunrise is to bring clouds, rain is to bring bitter. Now your father is leaving, he’s going to break his family ties
Sunrise is to bring bitter, rain is to bring clouds. Time for your father to leave his household
Flower blossom but flower is bitter, tree fruitful but fruits are bitter
Time for your father to go, now your father will have to divide his crops
Seems like your father’s spirit rather stay with you, he miss you so much but time calls for him to go
Your father misses his sons, adores his daughters. He wants to stay, but time calls for his spirit to go
He is cutting his earthly ties, with the clothes on his back, time to leave his family behind
Families, sons and daughter-in-laws, your father is going far beyond the sky, he is going to climb over 9 mountains and down 10 valleys
Do you miss your father or do you not?
If you miss him, grab a white cloth and go wash the sweats off his face.
Seems like now your father is standing at the gate, your father misses you much and doesn’t want to leave.
Your father turns his face to see you, turns his head to tell you
This is what he said
Seems like every normal night and day, your father’s objective is incomplete
You brought relatives, young and old to accompany your father
Today you father has nothing left for you to see, nothing left for you to view
Your father’s objective is complete, his funeral is over
Therefore, take the relatives, young and old back to their houses
Seems like the heaven is high and wide, the earth is deep and long, awaiting for your father to reside
Seems like when you return to your home. Your house will be a mess, unsettled and unbearable stay
Back at home, your house will be like a jungle unable to sustain
You will remember the time when you father is living well with you
Seems like you would go to work, venture for a day, when you arrived home
Your father is home, cleaning cooking your left over food.
Seems like your front and back yards are purged of rats and birds
Your father watched your son, looked after your daughter with warmth and comfort
Seems like today, your father has left.
After a day of work, your house will be a mess
There will be no one to heat your left over foods
Seems like your front and back yards will be full of rats and birds
Seems like today, your father has left.
When you returned home from work, there will be no one to watch your son, no one to look after your daughter
You will realize how much you miss your father.
Seems like you look at a distance, there is someone who appears to be your father
Walks and talks like your father, you move towards him. 3 steps, 4 steps closer and grab to his arm
He’s not your father, he’s just your uncle. He only loves you because he feels sorry for you.
He loves you a little, not unlike your father who gave birth to you.
Seems like you see a figure, old like him. Walks and talks like your father.
You move closer, 1 step 2 steps near him, grab him by his hands.
You look but he’s not your father. He’s your uncle or relative.
You wonder whether to call him father. He loves you but not to his heart. He only loves you because he feels sorry for you
He loves a little unlike your father who loves you with all his heart
Seems like when you return to your home. Your house will be a mess, unsettled and unbearable stay
You realized that financially you’re drained. Spent all your money, sacrificed all your animals
Seems like you view your house as empty, messy unable to live
You realized you spent everything, sacrificed all your animals for your father
You draw up a piece of squared paper to help track your father’s path.
But you can’t follow his footsteps,
sons and daughter-in-laws. Gather up a squared piece of paper with stripes to follow your father
But you can’t track his footsteps, you can’t follow his whereabouts
Daughters and son-in-laws
Seems like your father went away. One of his spirit will rest near the grave, there is one which will climb to the gates of heaven
Remember after the 3rd months, the 3rd full moon, there are 30 days to a month
Remember to fetch your father’s spirit, remember to release his spirit near the grave, is the only way to set him free
Your father has one spirit, sleeping in the ground. There is one more, ascending to the owner’s gates of heaven
Seems like after the 3rd months, the 3rd full moon, one month is 30 days
Remember to fetch your father’s spirit, free him from the grave
