General Go Geonmu Poem by Kinsley Lee

General Go Geonmu

For long time, we'd seemed to forget, our historic victory
For fighting against the Nae-HoAh's forces.
Near the Daedong River, it had turned into hills already,
That the twenty thousand enemy's corpses.
The great historical triumph of General Eulji
Was owed to General Gogeon's victory,
But he fell to revolutionist's sword, so his merit washed
Away by the river's flow, sadly.
(May,8th,2024, Kinsley Lee)
