Unofficial Original Lyrics:

Gone forth beyond the sea
To clime... as yet unknown,
Where calls are made for thee,
To bear the sword and crown.

Advance, God speed, to save,
Creatures in jungles deep,
God's hand shall help the brave,
Tho'man's may rest in sleep,

Let Justice signalise,
And ev'..ry voice resound,
Who by ...
the Eastern crown'd.

Tho'past and gone in light,
Thy name is still renownd,
And as a chief in might,
Thy deeds are ever crown'd,
.
Let echoing vales redound,
By mountain, crag and nook,
Sing loud with joyous sound,
God Bless the Rajah Brooke

Later Changed to:

Fair Land Sarawak, We will never cease to honour thee
And with our loyal sons, defend your liberty
From your high forest hills, down to the open sea
May freedom ever reign, men live in unity
Proudly our flag flies high, above our country strong and free
Long may our peoples live in peace and harmony

Sarawak should be independence from MALAYAN government.

No matter with diplomatic or armed struggle, as long we have determination,

this state will be achieved independence

[shriramvenu]

first thing to do is get rid of kingpin taib mahmud and his family

[Beqdol]

Nice song...I embrace myself as Malaysian. In my personal view, Sarawak would be better by herself. No offence, but we were independent Country until the WWII, with no official interference from British Government not until the Japanese came to Borneo. But it would not be nice to work under British Officer. I wish Sarawak was an independent Country, ruled by ourselves like Singapore.
