Yesterday’s Forgotten Heroes
Lyrics by George Das
YESTERDAY’S HEROES
Yesterday they were our heroes
Smashing and crushing their opponents
They captured titles after titles
We Malaysians were so proud of them
Winning the Thomas Cup
Rated the world’s best team
Capturing the All-England singles & doubles
Opponents were vanquished with deft ease
Do you remember them & those days
When they were all conquering
They sacrificed their youth
All they wanted was to make Malaysia proud
Oh! Why are they forgotten
Today they live a forgotten life
Oh! Why do you forget them
Only memories of their feats
Oh! Why are they forgotten
Don’t have no fame nor fortune
Oh! Why do you forget them
Lost in time forever
Do you remember them & those days
When they were all conquering
They sacrificed their youth
All they wanted was to make Malaysia proud
Oh! Why are they forgotten
Today they live a forgotten life
Oh! Why do you forget them
Only memories of their feats
Oh! Why are they forgotten
Don’t have no fame nor fortune
Oh! Why do you forget them
Lost in time forever
