Song
The song is sung by the students in the Great Hall every week at the start of each assembly.
Midst Malaysia's verdant Uplands
Stands a college built for all
Education is its mission
Scholarship its clarion call
Knowledge is the key to freedom
Study is the road to truth
We shall strive to serve our nation
As leaders of Malaysia's youth
Kesukaran diatasi
Kami kan bersatu hati
Menuju puncak jaya
Membela cita semua
Marilah kita berusaha
Tegakkan kebenaran
Demi bangsa dan negara
Kami sanjung setiap masa

Famous quotes containing the word song:
“I describe family values as responsibility towards others, increase of tolerance, compromise, support, flexibility. And essentially the things I call the silent song of life—the continuous process of mutual accommodation without which life is impossible.”
—Salvador Minuchin (20th century)
“The city sleeps and the country sleeps,
The living sleep for their time, the dead sleep for their time,
The old husband sleeps by his wife and the young husband sleeps by his wife;
And these tend inward to me, and I tend outward to them,
And such as it is to be of these more or less I am,
And of these one and all I weave the song of myself.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
“On a cloud I saw a child,
And he laughing said to me,
“Pipe a song about a Lamb”;
So I piped with merry chear.
“Piper pipe that song again”—
So I piped, he wept to hear.
“Drop thy pipe thy happy pipe
Sing thy songs of happy chear”;
So I sung the same again
While he wept with joy to hear.”
—William Blake (1757–1827)
