I think this is choral arrangement of the same 楊三郎 composition, with lyrics by 呂傳梓, arranged by 蔡昱姍, recorded in Austin, Texas back in 2013 by the 奧斯汀龍吟合唱團 (Austin Chinese Choir):

You mostly hear the similarity in that lovely opening/recurring melody.

Conductor: Chung-Hwa Chen Piano Accompanist: Eric Wei 魏嘉翔
