Let’s dare a vision, Of a Malaysia reborn, A true one-nation With good values as her bond. There was once a land, So peaceful and harmonious, With friendship so grand, With nothing acrimonious.
Then come the racists, Who feed on communalism; Vile supremacists, Who kill good fraternalism. Those immoral things, Who wallow in corruptions, Steal fair labour’s fruits, By foul discriminations.
Malaysia reborn, Means a united nation, Inclusive of races, Scornful of exploitations. Malaysia is us; Let there be no lesser sons. Each must stand equal, Under the Malaysian sun.
Let Malaysia grow With good racial harmony, Where all cultures bloom, Creating a common symphony. Each his potential, Nurtured and nourished fully, To its highest point, To serve the nation gladly.
This beautiful land, Can regain her great glory, By choosing rightness, To sweep out things vile and gory. There must be freedom, For talents, ideas to grow, To their bright fruition. This is how Malaysia can glow.
This land must reform, To disperse the evil cloud; Bring back the sunshine, Make Malaysians truly proud. Return the freedom, Make our life with blessings brim. Resurrect justice, Let Malaysians live their dreams.
