原曲收錄於專輯《獵人》，亦有華語版本收錄於專輯《走風的人》。關於此曲的創作歷程，王宏恩自述某天夜晚，看著月亮便想起家鄉的親人，以及祖母於離別時說的話：面臨困難或悲傷時，不妨抬頭對月亮訴說吧。想至此處，音樂旋律於腦中油然而生，於是用錄音機紀錄下來，創作出這首歌曲。此曲優美的旋律傳達了許多離鄉背井之人的思鄉之情，也在八八風災時給予失去家園的人許多心靈上的慰藉。

This work is a new-composed song which is about the belief of the indigenous people of Bunun in Taiwan. The composer described how he was reminded of his folks while gazing at the moon one night away from home, and also remembered the words his grandmother had said, “When facing difficulties or sadness, Just lift up your head and look at the moon. “

Ana tupa tu uka mita mahtu sinadaan
Asa kata tu malinaskal aupa aizang a buan

Ana tupa tu uka mita mahtu kanadaan
Asa kata tu malisvala aupa aizang a bunun

Isia mita tu isang maza mastan kaisalpuun
Adu aiza sipungulun mita isia mita tu isang
Mais sadu kata buan maza mita iliskinan
Mailangtangus naicia tu sinhasam adu aldikusuninta

Ana tupa tu uka mita mahtu sinadaan
Asa kata tu malinaskal aupa aizang a buan

Kaa tu sipungul kata hai bunun

雖然無所依靠
但因有那月亮　我們仍感幸福

雖然無立足之地
但因擁有彼此　我們仍感幸福

心中最深最深的舊日傷痛
我們是否已忘卻
看著月亮　我們想著
祖先留下的叮嚀是否仍謹記留存

雖然無所依靠
但因有那月亮　我們仍感幸福

不要忘了　我們是布農

Although we have lost our support,
we still feel happiness, for we still have the moon.

Although we have lost our footing,
we still feel solace, for we still have hope.

What have you kept in your heart,
and what have you forgotten?
Are you still moved when you look up to see the moon?
Do our ancestors' words still hold meaning to you?

Although we have lost our support,
we still feel happiness, for we still have the moon.
