A guqin-led 古風 farewell song set at first light along a coastal salt-marsh causeway. The ebbing tide leaves marks on the low stone embankment as a traveler carries a small reed satchel toward the far shore. The lyric moves from the simple act of tying the satchel at his side to the recognition that the deepest distance lies in an unspoken farewell.

Theme: Farewell journeys Lead instrument: Guqin Vocal character: Female silk-and-ink timbre, airy verses, dignified choruses

[引子] 潮痕上石 曉色未分 葦囊在側 君行向津

[主歌一] 鹵田無際 白露生根 石堤低臥 潮退留痕 我結葦囊 繫君行袂 不載金玉 猶留手溫

[副歌] 潮來無語 潮去有痕 一程鹽路 兩處晨昏 君持葦囊 莫問歸期 我守堤上 待海生春

[主歌二] 海風侵袖 鹽霧沾巾 君步漸遠 履響無聞 葦囊輕小 隨肩一振 回望之時 已隔潮紋

[副歌] 潮來無語 潮去有痕 一程鹽路 兩處晨昏 君持葦囊 莫問歸期 我守堤上 待海生春

[橋] 我欲呼君 海天無門 低看葦結 猶溫掌痕 乃知離路 不在關津 只在回眸 未及一言

[尾聲] 潮來無語 潮去有痕 一程鹽路 兩處晨昏 君持葦囊 莫問歸期 我守堤上 待海生春

潮來無語 潮去有痕 我守堤上 待海生春
