My version, not official.
I was young to leave my hometown while now return at an old age.
My dialect accent hasn't changed while my hair has been full of grey.
A little child encounters me but we can't tell each other's name.
He smiles to ask, "Reverend sir, could you tell me whence you came?"
I think rhyme is important.
