They drew in foreign power and invaded
The other brothers in the name of liberation.
With the army who changed uniform, they raided
At dawn, suddenly. With difficulty, nation
Defended against an enemy desperately.
The young soldiers’re at the age of twenty.

Elder brother was dead at the battle
Of Youndug, Pohang at the Walker line.
After In-Cheon Operation, they retreated to scuttle.
They kicked off the enemy like to chase the swine
To north at last. He served at KATUSA,
But sadly he dead in the shield of MED-USA.

At Chosin Reservoir, he was too young to die
At high-teen. With other soldiers he was covered
By the white snow, waiting the evacuation to lie.
But too long the evacuation, ’cause not discovered.
At last, Choi Im-rak, he had a trip to Hawaii
And waited the physical examination at the Hawaii.

With his nephew, he took aboard a plane.
And coming back to his hometown, the journey’ll end
And he’s passing the soldiers to Hollowed Plain
Where his brother is waiting at the other end.
Beside the Choi, Sang-Rag. Choi, Im-Rag will rest
Forever. Never forget, owing to them we can rest!
