Champion for moderation
Stand against extremism
Defend the Constitution
Integrate, leveraging pluralism
Ban vitriolic rhetoric
Stifle racial paradigm
Commit to consensus politics
National unity, bind
Malaysian nationalists arise
Show your patriotic spirit
Shield under one voice
Revive the Merdeka spirit
Independence statesmen-like, arise
Wrest and stir our nation clear
Towards a democratic haven, priced
Award our children a priced future
Champions of moderation, arise!
Let's march, carrying our flag high
Rukunegara drum-beats rise
For better tomorrow, patriots vie
Shield togetherness from bigots'
Callous racist and seditious statements
From moderate majority stem-up support
To respect ethnic and religious sentiments
Observe UN Human Rights Charter
Choose global trading partnerships
Of vital human asset value, be respecter
Entrust nation's future in moderate leadership
Hidup Malaysia!
