School Anthem
The school anthem shares the same tune as the American patriotic song America The Beautiful.
Sekolah Tinggi Melaka keseluruh negara
Beramai-ramai kita dukung rukun negara
Satu padu bertenaga majukan negara
Prinsip hidup progresif amalan sekolah kita
Sejak lapan belas dua enam namamu terbina
Sepanjang masa kemuka mulia dan bahagia
Sekolah Tinggi, Sekolah Tinggi, Tempatmu berbakti
Perpaduan, bercahaya, kekalan abadi.
A contextual translation would be:
Malacca High School to the whole nation
Massively, we uphold the country's ideology
United and energetic, we develop the country
Progressive principles of life are our school's custom
Your name was established since 1826
Throughout this time you've been noble and joyful
High School, High School, you're a place of contribution
Radiant unity endures for eternity.

Famous quotes containing the word school:
“The first rule of education for me was discipline. Discipline is the keynote to learning. Discipline has been the great factor in my life. I discipline myself to do everything—getting up in the morning, walking, dancing, exercise. If you won’t have discipline, you won’t have a nation. We can’t have permissiveness. When someone comes in and says, “Oh, your room is so quiet,” I know I’ve been successful.”
—Rose Hoffman, U.S. public school third-grade teacher. As quoted in Working, book 8, by Studs Terkel (1973)
