At long last, I raised my wife to adulthood, only for her to vanish into nothingness.
At long last, I let myself fall in love, only to be left all alone.
In this vast, boundless world, where are you?
All I have is the red cord in my hand, a small comfort to hold on to.
But then the red thread in my hand suddenly glimmers.
Only by setting out and traveling a thousand miles, searching without end, can I ease the ache in my heart.
Theme: Right and wrong, fairness and justice, lie in the heart
