%N: I found a claim online that the lyrics were written by Sou Bi-Wu (施碧梧).
N: This is an 18-bar version, as it is commonly sung.  The original song uses the
N: extra 2-bar delayed ending every time, plus assorted interludes between verses.
N: When used with dancing, the endings can be shortened to gie 16 bars, with no damage to the tune.
