He told the whole story to the crowd, and related all that he had experienced in search of his mother.
From the midst of the throng stepped an old woman. "You are my son! I haven't seen you for fifty years!" cried the lady, her voice choked with tears of joy.
The weary traveler, having realized his heart's desire, happily embraced his mother and shortly thereafter, took her home to care for her properly.
A verse in his honor says:
He said goodbye to Mama at age seven
He served the land with skill for fifty years
One day he wished to see his long-lost mother
His journey done, they both wept joyful tears
