Let us give the noblest respect and eternal glory to Great Leader Comrade Kim Il-sung!
Performed by Kim Kwang Suk and the Pochonbo Electronic Ensemble in the early 1990s. This song was originally written in the 1960s, encouraging workers to accelerate the Chollima Movement, which initiated rapid economic development in the country.
Chollima itself is a mythical horse from Chinese folklore, said to be able to travel 1000 li (approx. 500 km) in a single day. Chollima was used by Kim Il-sung to energize the workers in Korea, bringing the country out of the rubble of the Korean War and turning the DPRK into a truly 'prosperous' country as fast as the chollima can run.

"에야차!" (Eyacha!) does not mean anything, but is an interjection like "Hey!" in English.
