Like a certain operetta:
Captain.
My gallant crew, good morning!
Chorus. (saluting)
Sir, good morning!
Captain.
I hope you're all quite well.
Chorus. (as before)
Quite well; and you, sir?
Captain.
I am in reasonable health, and happy
To meet you all once more.
Chorus. (as before)
You do us proud, sir!
Captain.
I am the Captain of the Pinafore!
Chorus.
And a right good captain, too!
Captain.
You're very, very good,
And be it understood,
I command a right good crew.
Chorus.
We're very, very good,
And be it understood,
He commands a right good crew.
Captain.
Though related to a peer,
I can hand, reef, and steer,
And ship a selvagee;
I am never known to quail
At the fury of a gale,
And I'm never, never sick at sea!
Chorus.
What, never?
Captain.
No, never!
Chorus.
What, never?
Captain.
Hardly ever!
Chorus.
He's hardly ever sick at sea!
Then give three cheers, and one cheer more,
For the hardy Captain of the Pinafore!
Then give three cheers, and one cheer more,
For the Captain of the Pinafore!
Of, course, that's nothing to compared to the "the heroic KPA which has grown to be a matchless army under the care of Kim Jong Il, illustrious commander born of Heaven":
General Secretary Kim Jong Il, together with servicepersons enjoyed an art performance given by the Song and Dance Ensemble of the KPA Navy Command on the occasion of the Socialist Constitution Day.And he never swears the big, big D . . .
The song and dance ensemble put on the stage such colorful numbers as a serial song "The General and Seamen", dance "Departure from Port in Morning," male chorus "Push back Frontiers of Science".
The performers successfully represented the invincible might of the heroic KPA which has grown to be a matchless army under the care of Kim Jong Il, illustrious commander born of Heaven, and the firm faith and will of the servicepersons to devotedly defend the headquarters of the revolution and accomplish the revolutionary cause of Juche with arms.
He expressed great satisfaction over the splendid performance replete with the revolutionary soldier spirit given by the artistes of the Song and Dance Ensemble, highly appreciating their achievements made in the performing activities for instilling the conviction of sure victory and optimism and the spirit and courage to annihilate the enemy into the servicepersons.
He expressed expectation and conviction that the artistes would conduct dynamic revolutionary and militant performing activities to encourage the servicepersons and people in their sacred struggle for defending the socialist system, a precious gain won by the Korean people at the cost of blood.
