The Ode To The Ceremony For Constructing The Monument Of Student Soldiers At Sunchon

That summer, when the red colored banners\'re fluttering in this land,
Emergency, the students rallied for their nation, in this hot field.
They gathered in Sun-Chun square, they took a stand,
For leaving family, off home, to join the battle field.

A week of training, they\'re sent to the frontline Army
And facing the foe, the Crack People\'s Army the sixth Division,
Which composed of the veterans at Chinese War at the Eight Route Army
And many young lives fell to be crimson petal on mission.

Their sacrifice ensured the stalling tactics\' success,
And make time to rebuild the defense line when were to crack.
Their deaths provided the chance for victory to progress,
And planting the seeds of freedom in this nation\'s track.

Though victory in war was finally won, and they\'ve been hard time
Because the survivors missed their study to run,
And seven decades\'ve passed, though we remember late time,
They\'re nineties, and our living is debt of their merits in large ton.
