Official lyrics (Malay)

Melaka, negeri bersejarah,
Tanah tumpah darah kita,
Dijunjung dengan sepunuh jiwa,
Untuk maju dan jaya!
Rakyat Melaka sudah bersatu padu,
Berikrar taat setia,
Jujur berkhidmat setiap masa,
Melaka, maju jaya!

Lyrics (English)

Malacca, o storied land,
Our home and native soil,
We'll uphold with heart and hand,
Your glory by our toil!
We the people come as one,
Sworn solemn to be true,
To serve you the ages through,
Malacca, onwards come!
