By Roz Chung
I’ve heard them say the sky is the same,
No matter where you roam,
But they have not seen our skies ignite,
Our dawn, our dusk, our home.
They say that people are all alike,
From land to distant land,
But they have not seen us Malaysians stand,
Together, hand in hand.
Through trials that test our unity,
And forces dark as night,
We stand as one, with hearts that shine,
A beacon of pure light.
How blessed we are to share this earth,
This gift of boundless grace,
Let kindness, thanks and love prevail,
For there is but one place –
One Malaysia, strong and free,
Our pride, our peace, our harmony.
– Roz Chung, 31 August 2024
