Lyrics

Original Malay lyrics

Sarawak Tanah Airku
Negeriku Tanah Airku Sarawak
Engkaulah tanah pusakaku
Tanah tumpah darahku
Ibu pertiwiku
Rakyat hidup mesra dan bahagia
Damai muhibah sentiasa
Bersatu, Berusaha, Berbakti
Untuk Sarawak kucintai
Sarawak dalam Malaysia
Aman makmur Rahmat Tuhan Maha Esa
Kekallah Sarawak bertuah
Teras perjuangan rakyat
Berjaya berdaulat

Literal English translation

Sarawak, my homeland
My state, my homeland, Sarawak
You are the Land of my native soil
The Land where my blood flows
My Motherland.
Citizens live happily and in harmony
Peaceful, always cooperative (with each other)
United, Striving, Service
For my beloved Sarawak.
Sarawak, a part of Malaysia
Blessed by God with peace and prosperity
Forever may Sarawak be blessed
Through the people's effort
Be successful and free
