Meanwhile -- (WW)The Greek word translated as "meanwhile" means "but”, "yet", "however” and "on the other hand”. It joins phrases in an adversarial way. Since it always falls in the second position, translating it as "however" often captures its feeling better. This word doesn't mean "now”.

the  -- The "the" word is the Greek definite article," the”, which usually precedes a noun or changes the word it precedes (adjective, infinitive, participle, etc.) to act like a noun. The Greek article is much closer to our demonstrative pronouns ("this", "that”, "these” and "those"). See this article for more.

older -- "Elder" is a Greek adjective means "old men", "elder", "old age", "ambassador", in comparative and superlative, of things, "more or most important", "taking precedence". 

missing "the/this"  -- (MW) The untranslated word is the Greek definite article," the", which usually precedes a noun or changes the word it precedes (adjective, infinitive, participle, etc.) to act like a noun. The Greek article is much closer to our demonstrative pronouns ("this”, "that”, "these” and "those"). See this article for more. 

 son -- The word translated as "son" is the Greek word for "son", "scion”, "heir” or "descendant”. Like most male words, it can be used in the plural as a generic term for both sexes when they are descendants of someone. It can refer to all offspring in later generations, just like "father" refers to all previous generations.  More about it in this article. 

missing "his"  -- (MW) The untranslated word "his" is the Greek word correctly translated as third-person "his/him" in English.  The word appears after the noun so the sense is "of his”. In its adverbial form, this means "just here" or "exactly there”.

was -- The verb "was" here is the common form of "to be" in Greek. It means to have a certain characteristic or remain in a certain condition. It also equates terms or assigns characteristics.  The word also means "to exist" where it doesn't connect to characteristics or conditions.

in  -- The word translated as "in" means "in”, "on”, "within”, "with" (an instrument), "by" (near), "by" (means of), "during" (time),  or "among" with an indirect-object form object.  About time, it means "during the time”, "in the time”, "within” and "in”. With the direct object form, it means "into", "on” and "for”. When referring to time, it means "during”. It can mean "on”, "at” or "by" in the sense of "near”. 

the -- (IW) This word is not in the Greek source.

fields: -- (WN) "Field" is from the common noun that means "field”, "lands” or "countryside”. This word is not plural but singular. 

working. -- (IW) This word is not in the Greek source. IW - Inserted Word-- The "working" doesn't exist in the source.

missing "and "  -- (MW) The untranslated word "and" is used as the conjunction "and”, but it also is used to add emphasis, "even”, "also” and "just”.

When -- - The word translated as "when" has a very broad meaning, translated as "as”, "when", "where”, "just as”, "like” and related words. It means "when”, in the sense of "as”, during an act, but with past, indicative tenses the temporal "when" at a time. It means "how" only in an exclamation with an adjective or adverb like "how wonderful”.

he -- This is from the third-person, singular form of the verb.

returned - (CW, WF)- The word translated as "returned " primarily means "to start out" but Jesus usually uses it to mean "come" but not always. It indicates movement, especially its beginning, without indicating a direction toward or away from anything, so it works either as "start", "come” or "go”. but it is more like our phrase "being underway". Technically, it is in the middle voice meaning the subject acts on himself. In English, this is assumed in our words "come" and "go." Our English word "show up" captures both the "start" and "come" ideas. See this article for more. This is not the word usually translated as "return." This is not an active verb but a participle, a verbal adjective, "coming”.

home-- (IW) These is no "home" here. 

missing "neared"  -- (MW) The untranslated word  -- The word translated as "neared" is the verb form of an adverb that means "near" in space, time, and relationships. It means "to bring near", "to approach”, "to bring up to”, and "to be imminent”. In English, we would say "nears" or, in the form here, "has neared", doesn't quite work so perhaps "has gotten close" or, in the case of time, "is nearly here”, This is the same verb that is translated as "is at hand" in the phrase, "The kingdom of heaven is at hand." It is not seen in written Greek before Jesus and used by him only seventeen times.

he -- This is from the third-person, singular form of the verb.

heard -- "Heard" is from a Greek verb that means "to hear”, "to hear of” and "to listen”. It has the same sense as the English not only of listening but of understanding.   It also means "to listen" and "to understand”, but amusingly, it also means "to be silent”.

music -- (WN) "Music" is a Greek noun used by Jesus only here. It means "concord or unison of sound", "musical concord", "harmony", "agreement", " band", and "orchestra".  It is not the Greek word from music. Here, it would probably be heard as both "a band" and "harmony" in the sense of agreement. This word is not singular but plural. 

 and -- The Greek word translated as "and" is used as the conjunction "and”, but it also is used to add emphasis, "even”, "also” and "just”.

dancing. -- (WF) "Dancing" is a Greek noun used by Jesus only here. It means "dance", "choir", "dancers and singers", and "place for dancing". The sense here is "a dance".  The form of this word requires the addition of extra words in English to capture its meaning.  The most common is the "of" of possession, but it can also mean "belonging to”, "part of”, "which is”, "than" (in comparisons), or  "for”, "concerning" or "about" with transitive verbs. Here, the sense is "for”.

in-- -- This word "in" comes from the indirect object form of the following word that requires the addition of a preposition in English. The most common is a "to" for the English indirect object. However, the translator can choose other prepositions: "with”, "in”, "of”, "as”, "by”, "for”, "at” or "on" depending on the context. 

the -- The word translated as "the" is the Greek definite article, "the”, which usually precedes a noun or changes the word it precedes (adjective, infinitive, participle, etc.) to act like a noun. The Greek article is much closer to our demonstrative pronouns ("this”, "that", "these", "those") than the English "the”. See this article for more. 

house, --  - The Greek word translated as "house," refers to the building itself, all the people that dwell in it, including slaves and servants, all property owned by that family, and all the descendants of the continued line. Since the masculine form works better as "house”. this might work better as home.
