My Homeland

Known as the ‘garden city’ during the 70s,
Orchard road, Thompson road, and other major avenues,
Trees were lined along and full of greeneries.
Evening strolls along garden walkways,
Sitting on park benches, relaxing after a long day,
Life cannot be any better in other countries
Except my one and only homeland, Singapore.

Known as the ‘multi-racial’ country,
Chinese, Malay, Indian, Eurasians,
No riots, no strikes, no war,
We all lived in harmony, thanks to the religious tolerance.
This is my one and only homeland, Singapore.

Known for ‘Changi Airport’,
It represents Singapore’s impressive efficient, cleanliness and technology at it’s best,
We strive at all those for others and ourselves.
This is my one and only homeland, Singapore.
This is where I belong.
