Aegukga (North Korea)

Aegukga is also the name of the national anthem of South Korea. See Aegukga.
Aegukga, also known as Ach'imŭn pinnara ("Let Morning Shine", the first phrase of the song) is the national anthem of North Korea. North Korea initially had as its anthem the same song as South Korea, but adopted this newly-written piece in 1947. The words were writted by Pak Se-yŏng (박세영; 朴世泳; 1902-1989) and the music was composed by Kim Wŏn-gyun (김원균; 金元均; 1917-2002).

|valign=center|Let morning shine on the silver and gold of this land,
Three thousand leagues packed with natural wealth.
My beautiful fatherland.
The glory of a wise people
Brought up in a culture brilliant
With a history five millennia long.
Let us devote our bodies and minds
To supporting this Korea forever.
|valign=center|The firm will, bonded with truth,
Nest for the spirit of labour,
Embracing the atmosphere of Mount Paektu,
Will go forth to all the world.
The country established by the will of the people,
Breasting the raging waves with soaring strength.
Let us glorify forever this Korea,
Limitlessly rich and strong.
