本詩由朝鮮詩人趙基天（1913-1951）所作，由up根據(jù)白銳的中文譯文翻譯成英文。 Swing Authored by Jo Ki Chon/ Translated by Meow Bend willow branches droop On the bank of the green river in May, Maidens in the village are here

swinging

. A long rope Gently sways into a crescent. And the maidens like birds spreading their wings, Towards the other side of the sky,

flying

. The first time, Clear water flows beneath their feet. The second time, Green mountains approach their eyes. The third time, Over their heads gathered white clouds are

found

. A maiden raises her head to overlook something, With smile full of her cheeks, Flying to the sky for another

round

. The flying girl is still looking at the clouds faraway, As she's got something to look for… Oh! There is a city called Pyongyang where red banners wave, And a youth studying in the Kim Il Sung university, Is exactly the girl's

lover

. Oh, he is the guy from the same village Who's going to be a hire hand

forever

. 附中文： 彎彎的柳樹垂在 五月的蔥綠的江邊， 村中的少女在這里蕩著秋千。 一條長悠悠的繩子， 輕輕地擺成彎月形， 少女們像飛鳥展開雙翅， 飛向碧天的一邊。 蕩了一遍， 綠水從腳下流過; 蕩了兩遍， 青山靠近眼前; 再蕩第三遍， 白云頭上團團出現(xiàn)。 少女昂起頭要探望什么， 緋紅的兩頰上洋溢著微笑， 又高高地飛向天邊。 姑娘飛上去還遙望著遠處的云彩， 好象尋找什么…… 啊! 在那里有座紅旗飄揚的平壤城， 在金日成大學(xué)里學(xué)習(xí)的一個青年， 正是這姑娘懷念的情人。 他呀，就是要做一輩子雇工的 同村的小伙子。
