The lyrics are as follows:
1.
I miss my mother, though I live in a foreign country far away
My white-haired mother, I hope my son will return, and I am looking forward to seeing her through my eyes;
When the ice and snow melt, the child will definitely return home
When the spring returns to the earth, you must pay good attention to your own warmth and coldness.
Chorus:
The winter is cold, the night is long, the child sleeps with you
The morning sun is shining, the sun shows its face, the child will stand before you.
2.
I miss my mother, though I am far away from her
My dear mother, I am looking forward to her return, and I can't wait to see her return.
Whenever the sound of the horse's hooves comes near, I think that my father is going to come to see me.
Mother, my child will come back to you from a faraway place.
Chorus: (omitted)
3.
I miss my mother, though the streets are wide here,
My beloved mother is looking forward to the return of my son, her eyes are longing for him.
When the Tula River rises, my son will come back to you
When the new buds grow on the trees, you should take good care of your own warmth and coldness.
Chorus (omitted)
