Another year away from Singapore during National Day. My sunny island will celebrate her 43rd Birthday in 9 days. This year's NDP Theme Song is titled "Shine for Singapore". We can listen to the theme songs and watch the parade on http://www.ndp.org.sg/.
Happy 43rd Birthday, Singapore!
Shine for Singapore
Music and lyrics by Benny Wong
Performed by Hady Mirza
Have you seen a star,
One that guides you no matter where you are?
However vast the sky may be
Or dark it seems
You can be sure, it's always there for you and me
Have you heard a song,
One that moved you, one that made you sing along?
Your dreams and hopes will all come true
If you believe that every vision begins with you.
*Shine for Singapore
This is your song
Deep inside your heart where it belongs
It'll always stay, strive for your goals.
You will achieve with visions so bold.
# Shine for Singapore
This is our song
Reach out for the sky, far and beyond
As one we'll stand, we're Singapore
It's here that we belong
Have you heard a song,
One that moved you, one that made you sing along?
Your dreams and hopes will all come true
If you believe that every vision begins with you.
Nowhere I'd rather be, this is home to me
This star shines strong and free
Repeat, *,#
