Thought for the day
September 23, Juche 94 (the 94th year after the great leader Comrade Kim Il Sung was born)

The Embrace of My Motherland
Kim Jong Il

Moran Hill is afire with a red glow,
The Taedong is arched with a rainbow.
How beautiful this motherland
In whose embrace I've grown up!

Azaleas smile sweetly in spring,
Larks warble high up on the wing,
As warm and tender as the vernal sun
Is the land that has brought me up.

The sun rises on the sea buoyant,
The land glows under the sun radiant,
Stars twinkle with nocturnal grace,
In my father the General's embrace.


Korea, I Will Glorify Thee
Kim Jong Il

As I stand on Ryongnam Hill at sunrise,
The land of 3,000 ri greets my eyes.
Learning the leader's great idea,
I'll be the master of the revolution in Korea.
O Korea, I will add glory to you.

On the road of Juche I will be firm and steady
Under the guidance of the great leader.
Braving the raging waves and storms,
I will lead Korea into the future.
O Korea, I will bring glory to you.

I will carry forward the cause of the sun
That shines over the whole world.
I will unfold the era of communism
When the red glow of Juche covers the earth.
O Korea, my Korea!

Blimey! What fascinating things you can find on the Net these days...

North Korea is a country I'd really like to visit - it's unique in being the only country in the world with a head of state that's dead...
