Democratic People's Republic of Korea - Are We Living Like In Those Days? - 그때처럼 우리가 살고있는가?

English Lyrics:

From my youthful days, memories come alive
When I open my photo album
Our comrades in arms, from the days of war
They look back at me and ask
Are we living like in those days?
Are we living like in those days?
Spilling our hot blood beyond the Raktong River
Just like in those days!

Never to be forgotten, fading photographs
Page by page they unfold
While turning the first spadeful among the ruins
My comrades look back at me
How can we ever forget those days?
How can we ever forget those days?
With tightened belts they sang of revolution
Just like in those days!

Are we living like in those days?

Time is passing on, from the days of youth
Our appearances are changing too
The heart that follows the Mother Party
It still remains young!
We will forever live like in those days!
We will forever live like in those days!
We keep this oath strong within our hearts
Just like in those days!

We will forever live like in those days!
We will forever live like in those days!
Just like in those days!

Korean Lyrics:

내 젊은 시절 추억도 많은
사진첩을 펼칠 때면
전화의 그날 옛 전우들이
나를 보고 물어보네
그때처럼 우리가 살고있는가?
그때처럼 우리가 살고있는가?
락동강을 넘으며 더운 피를 뿌리던
그때 그 나날처럼!

잊을수 없는 색날은 사진
한장두장 번질 때면
빈터우에서 첫삽을 뜨던
전우들이 나를 보네
그때 일을 우리가 어이 잊으랴?
그때 일을 우리가 어이 잊으랴?
허리띠를 조이며 혁명가를 부르던
그때 그 나날들을!

그때처럼 우리가 살고있는가?

세월은 흘러 젊은 시절의
그 모숩은 변했어도
어머니당을 따르는 마음
청춘으로 남아있네!
그때처럼 영원히 우리 살리라!
그때처럼 영원히 우리 살리라!
굳게 다진 그 맹세 심장으로 지키던
그때 그 나날처럼!

그때처럼 영원히 우리 살리라!
그때처럼 영원히 우리 살리라!
그때 그 나날처럼!

Uploader's Note:

What's known as the Nakdong River is pronounced as the Raktong River in some DPRK sources.

There were multiple translations of this song that didn't really flow well in the English language. So, I assembled the words I thought made sense and hardcoded the subtitles into this AI-upscaled video for your pleasure, dear viewer. :)

Total Juche Love!
