The Singapore Song By Rony Tan

In deep gratitude to our protective and caring government all these 43 years, The Singapore Song was written in their honor. It is also specially dedicated to Mr & Mrs Lee Kuan Yew.

Lyrics:

Oh I was born
on a cold and rainy morn
My mama cried as she
held me, frail and small
There was no hope in her eyes
as the enemies swept by
A colony left alone
to bleed and die

Oh it was hard
to endure pain and tyranny
Beneath the load how we
yearned to be free
Then came the day of liberty
when we took our destiny
To build a nation
of strong security

Singapore
I hear your call
All for one and one for all
I stand so tall
Now that I've finally survived
I pledge my heart and life
So in this homeland I vow
to live and die

Oh we were born
after the war peacefully
We've never known
great suffering and poverty
But we know our fathers' sacrifice
And what they've left behind
A legacy we hold dear
in our lives

Singapore
We hear your call
All for one and one for all
We stand so tall
Now that we've finally survived
We pledge our hearts and lives
So in this homeland we vow
to live and die
