Until the day when the East Sea's waters and

Mt. Baekdu are dry and worn away,
God protect and preserve us.
Long live our nation!

Three thousand Li of splendid rivers and mountains,
filled with Roses of Sharon;
Great Korean People,
stay true to the Great Korean way.

The pine tree atop foremountain
stands firmly unchanged under wind
and frost as if wrapped in armour,
as is our resilient spirit.

Three thousand Li of splendid rivers and mountains,
filled with Roses of Sharon;
Great Korean People,
stay true to the Great Korean way.

Autumn sky is void and vast,
high and cloudless,
the bright moon is our heart,
undivided and true.

Three thousand Li of splendid rivers and mountains,
filled with Roses of Sharon;
Great Korean People,
stay true to the Great Korean way.

With this spirit and this mind,
give all loyalty,
in suffering or in joy,
love the country.

Three thousand Li of splendid rivers and mountains,
filled with Roses of Sharon;
Great Korean People,
stay true to the Great Korean way.

Until the East Sea's waves are dry, (and) Mt. Baekdu worn away,
God watch o'er our land forever, our nation eternal!

Rose of Sharon, thousand miles of range and river land!
Guarded by her people, ever may Korea stand!

Like a Mt. Namsan armored pine, standing on duty still,
wind or frost, unchanging ever, be our resolute will.

Rose of Sharon, thousand miles of range and river land!
Guarded by her people, ever may Korea stand!

In autumn's, arching evening sky, crystal and cloudless blue,
be the radiant moon our spirit, steadfast, single and true.

Rose of Sharon, thousand miles of range and river land!
Guarded by her people, ever may Korea stand!

With such a will, (and) such a spirit, loyalty, heart and hand,
let us love, come grief, come gladness, this our beloved land!

Rose of Sharon, thousand miles of range and river land!
Guarded by her people, ever may Korea stand!
