In the ground of general Kwon's house, now
An ancient gingkgo-tree proudly stands,
As the sun sets, in the western sky,
The clouds turn red when looking up in this lands.
Gleaming-lights spread like the silk, here
And there, steadily lighting the night,
And thoughts of our hometown, and the food which reminds
Us mother's love, it induce us tight.
