oh Malaysia!

Oh Malaysia!
You were free once
When Tunku was around
Leading you like gentle lady
You saw the glory
Peaceful cohesion
Every one living helping enjoying
When the Prince was gone
Others came to knock you away
Inch by inch these leaders put you away
Into home sitting docile alone

Corruptions and greed
Rear its ugly head
You see it through your beads
Counting it every day

The greedy leaders
Take what they want
Through cronies giving them leeways
Using draconian laws to silence critics
Some disappeared into Kamunting
Wasted their lives wasting resources

Oh Malaysia!
Sweetened slogans
It didn't mean a thing
Only for the ruling elites
And its partners' coffers
The majority only take the crumbs
Fight for another day in the ballot box

Oh Malaysia!
Let the people wake up soon
Find the faults learn the lessons
Change it for the better
And you can smile once more
The lady once a Prince took you along
