人にん間げん到いたる処ところ青せい山ざんあり

expression

home is wherever one lays one's hat; you can make your living anywhere in this world

Proverb encouraging a broad-minded view that one can find a place to live or be buried anywhere; often used to console someone who has to leave home or to express a free-spirited attitude. The literal meaning is 'wherever there are humans, there are green mountains (burial places).'

• 「人にん間げん到いたる処ところ青せい山ざんあり」と言いうから、心しん配ぱいせずに旅たび立だとう。

  I've been transferred, but I'll do my best with the spirit that you can make your living anywhere.
