Meliora Hic Sequamur: The 200th Anniversary Song of Malacca High School

(To be sung on 5th December 2026)

Verse 1:

From eighteen twenty-six we trace our storied past,

A vision born to make our knowledge last,

From Free School days to stand upon this hill,

With Meliora Hic Sequamur, our steadfast will.

Through two centuries of change, we've held our ground,

A legacy of excellence renowned.

Chorus:

Here we strive for better things,

Where the spirit of MHS takes wing.

Two hundred years of glory, strong and true,

In mauve and green, our colours shine anew.

Malacca High, our hearts belong,

In every verse and every song!

Verse 2:

From A Famosa's walls to our present hall,

We answered greatness' every call.

Though the world outside may turn and change its face,

Our unity and strength we still embrace.

With honour, pride, and loyalty so deep,

A promise for our future we will keep.

Chorus:

Here we strive for better things,

Where the spirit of MHS takes wing.

Two hundred years of glory, strong and true,

In mauve and green, our colours shine anew.

Malacca High, our hearts belong,

In every verse and every song!

Bridge:

By the straits of history, we stand as one,

A story that can never be undone.

From 1826's golden light,

To 2026, burning bright.

Final Chorus:

Here we strive for better things,

Where the spirit of MHS takes wing.

For two hundred years and evermore,

As we have done so long before.

Malacca High, we sing your praise,

Through all our future days!
