Among the masterpieces which have been widely sung among our people is a song "We Have Planted Apple Trees on Mountains", enriching the treasure house of Juche-oriented art and literature.
The song created in Juche 49(1960) deeply depicts the ardent emotion of love for the cradle where the people live through the fascinating melodies and vital words.
Kim Sang O (writer) and Kim Ok Song (composer), creators in this song, represented simply and truthfully the delight of the agricultural workers who sow the seeds and cultivate the fruits with their hands while singing a new history of mountains of gold and treasures in the bosom of President Kim Il Sung.
Such words as "apple tree of gold", "laughter blooms in villages" and "sing in flowers" make the listeners imagine the morning and evening of the socialist countryside overflowing with worth and joy of creation and happy laughter as a famous picture.
The song gives a vivid impression of our-style socialist paradise best in the world and is a masterpiece of the era of the Workers’ Party implanting the love and feelings for our country.
And it gives clear answers to the question "What is a socialist paradise?" with the life of the socialist working people who cultivate the fruit trees with their hands, not with flatulent expressions.
Our socialist paradise is, indeed, the people’s house provided by President Kim Il Sung and their happiness defended by Chairman Kim Jong Il as well as their laughter further coming into full bloom under the care of the respected General Secretary Kim Jong Un.
Therefore, even now our people cast in their lot with socialism and advance full of confidence and vitality towards the socialist power where merry laughter will be come into full bloom, warmly recollecting line by line of the song singing that the country is a great paradise of flowering socialism.
