Hero of Sabah

I can't imagine He hiked the mountains He crossed the rivers And traverse the forest He defended Sabah He was killed after years His years of keeping a nation’s pride His was anti colonial government Never had he found a word to surrender But never to deny his Suluk blood Fighting along with Dusun and Bajau In his honor I am proud The freedom of his land he is understood Stand the hero of Sabah You are forever in our heart Your blood grew our spirit to fight We are freemen with your cause Datu Paduka Mat Salleh You are in our memory!
