Original Text
金兵使錫哲。亦中廟朝武臣也。以承旨入內苑。上以前繫白馬爲題。詩曰。白馬閑嘶繫柳條。將軍無事藏劒鞘。國恩未報身先老。夢踏關山雪未銷。頗爲傳誦。或謂尹判書熙平所作。未知孰是。

Korean Translation
병사(兵使) 김석철(金石哲) 또한 중종 때의 무신이다. 그는 승지로 내원에 들었는데, 상이 앞에 매놓은 ‘백마(白馬)’로 글제를 내어 주었더니, 백마는 한가히 울며 버들가지에 매여 있고 / 白馬閑嘶繫柳條 장군은 일 없어 칼집에 칼을 꽂네 / 將軍無事劍藏鞘 나라 은혜 갚기 전에 몸 먼저 늙으니 / 國恩未報身先老 꿈에 밟는 관산에 눈 녹지 않았네 / 夢踏關山雪未銷 라고 하였는데, 자못 전하여 외운다. 어떤 사람은 판서 윤희평(尹熙平)이 지은 시라고 하니, 어떤 말이 옳은지 알 수 없다.

English Translation

Kim Sŏkch’ŏl 金錫哲 (b. 1450), an Army Commander (pyŏngma chŏltosa), also was a military official during the reign of King Chungjong. When he was in the palace garden to receive the royal order, the king asked him to write a poem about the white horse that was tied in front. He wrote, 白馬閑嘶繫柳條將軍無事劍藏鞘國恩未報身先老夢踏關山雪未銷 The white horse whinnies idly tied with a willow branch.With no trouble at hand, the general hides his sword in its sheath. I have yet to repay the royal favor but my body has already grown old.In my dreams, I tread the barrier mountains where the snow has not yet melted. The poem became widely recited (chŏnsong). Some attribute it to Yun Hŭip’yŏng 尹熙平 (1469–1545), but I don’t know whose it truly is.
