We use a semiclassical large-$S$ expansion to study a plateau at $1/3$saturation in the magnetization curve of a frustrated ferrimagnet on aspatially anisotropic kagom\'{e} lattice. The spins have both ferromagnetic andantiferromagnetic nearest-neighbor Heisenberg couplings, and a frustratingnext-nearest-neighbor coupling in one lattice direction. The magnetizationplateau appears at the classical level for a certain range of couplings, andquantum fluctuations significantly broaden it at both ends. Near the region ofthe phase diagram where the classical plateau destabilizes, we find an exotic"chiral liquid" phase that preserves translational and $U(1)$ spin symmetry, inwhich bound pairs of magnons with opposite spins are condensed. We show howthis state is obtained naturally from a relativistic field theory formulation.We comment on the relevance of the model to the material$\text{Cu}_3\text{V}_2\text{O}_7\text{(OH)}_2 \cdot 2\text{H}_2\text{O}$(volborthite).
