- 륙승정 련못가에 늘어진 버들을
실실이 날실로 늘여나 볼가
약산이라 진달래 곱게 핀 꽃을
송이송이 비단필에 수놓아 보세- Ryukseungjeong ryeonmotga-e neureojin beodeur-eul
Silsiri nalsil-lo neuryeona bolga
Yaksan-ira jindallae gopge pin kkoch-eul
Song'isong'i bidanpir-e sunoa bo-se - By the lotus pond of Ryukseong Pavilion with the weeping willow,
Let us hang them down, twig by twig, gently with our thread;
And the azaleas blooming fair on Mount Yaksan—
Let us embroider them, blossom by blossom, upon this roll of silk.
