"Majulah Singapura" - In Memory of Mr. Lee Kuan Yew

Although I'm thousands of miles away from home, I can feel the grief and outpouring of emotion of my home country from the passing of our beloved former Minister Mentor Mr. Lee Kuan Yew.

Growing up in Singapore, I was constantly reminded by my parents and grandparents how incredible he was and how much our country owes to him. I was always aware of how lucky I was to have grown up in such a beautiful, safe, multicultural and progressive country.

I read that before he passed he was worried that the people of Singapore were united enough - if only he could see how everyone stood in solidarity through the rain and crowds - one people, one nation ready to build on his legacy.

I hope this this version of our national anthem can be a small token of my family's gratitude. A huge thank you to Uncle Adam for helping with the beautiful arrangement and my sister Trina for helping to film!

No matter where I am in the world, Singapore will always be home. Majulah Singapura!

Lyrics (in Malay):

Mari kita rakyat Singapura / Come, fellow Singaporeans
sama-sama menuju bahagia / Let us progress towards happiness together
Cita-cita kita yang mulia / May our noble aspiration bring
berjaya Singapura / Singapore success

Marilah kita bersatu / Come, let us unite
dengan semangat yang baru / In a new spirit
Semua kita berseru / Together we proclaim
Majulah Singapura / Onward Singapore
Majulah Singapura! / Onward Singapore

Marilah kita bersatu / Come, let us unite
dengan semangat yang baru / In a new spirit
Semua kita berseru / Together we proclaim
Majulah Singapura / Onward Singapore
Majulah Singapura! / Onward Singapore
