Even if it strategically arranged between the nations,
How can one calculate love's chain?
Departed Father, teared the self-sounding
Drum, following the lover's rein.
Through foolish betrayal called the Goguryeo's invasion,
And her body and nation vanished in flare,
Not burying with lover-the poignant wishes scattered,
Even the tomb, she unable to share.
