One Golden Celebration

I found this song really interesting since the first time I hear it. In fact, it is our theme song for "Visit Malaysia 2007" program. Well the best thing about the song is that, it is full of emotion and really presented a harmonious feel of our country. In fact, I like its mix of both contemporary and traditional sounds, which has really been made wonderfully. Particularly the traditional music (Dikir Barat, etc), which is the sounds that Malaysians have grown up with... a sound that is truly our heritage.

You can access the song from Youtube here.

Malaysia

There’s a place not far away
Different faces yet all the same
With a million dreams
In one golden celebration

Malaysia

It’s the place for us to be
It’s the time to feel so free
With a million smiles
In one golden celebration

Malaysia

Come and spread your wings
There’s so much to see
There’s a million colours
Right before your eyes
It’s one golden celebration

Come and spread your wings
There’s so much to see
There’s a million colours
Right before your eyes

It’s time to celebrate
It’s one golden celebration

Mari Adik Adik
Mari Abang Abang
Mari Ramai Ramai
Mari Bergembira

Mari Adik Adik
Mari Abang Abang
Mari Ramai Ramai

Feel the magic in the air
Every moment and everywhere
With a million thrills
In one golden celebration

Malaysia

A million colours, a million dreams
A million smiles and a million thrills
For you and me
In one golden celebration

Malaysia

Spread your wings
And take your flight
One celebration
One delight
It’s the time for us to be
One golden moment for you and me

A million colours , a million dreams
A million smiles, a million thrills
It’s the time for us to be
One golden moment for you and me

Come and spread your wings
There’s so much to see
There’s a million colours
Right before your eyes
It’s one golden celebration

Come and spread your wings
There’s so much to see
There’s a million colours
Right before your eyes

It’s time to celebrate
One golden celebration

It’s time to celebrate
It’s one golden celebration
