Lyrics

Selamat Tuhan kurniakan,

Selamat Pulau Pinang,

Negeriku yang mulia,

Kutaat dan setia,

Aman dan bahagia,

Majulah jayalah,

Negeriku yang ku cinta,

Bersatu dan bersama,

Untuk negeri kita

Safety to Penang,

My noble state,

To which I am loyal and faithful,

Peaceful and cheerful,

May you progress and succeed,

My state which I love,

United and together,

For our state
