Reminiscing...

after going through those BBGS sites and blogs ...i suddenly miss all those BBGS related thingy...hehehe...and so I decided to put here the school song as well as the centenary song...if only i could put up the audios...

~School Song: English Version~
BBGS we pledge to thee,

Our love and toil in the years to be,
When we are grown and take our place,

As loyal women with our race.

Father in heaven, who lovest all,

O help Thy children when they call,

That they may build from age to age,

An undefiled heritage.

Teach us to bear the yoke in youth,

With steadfastness and careful truth,
That in our time,

Thy grace may give,

The truth whereby the nations live.

Teach us delight in simple things,

And mirth that has no bitter springs,

Forgiveness free of evil done,

And love to all men 'neath the sun.

BBGS we pledge to thee,

Our love and toil in the years to be,

When we are grown and take our place,

As loyal women with our race.

and to be honest I could never sing the english version without looking at the lyrics...guess partly because I was not a BBGS girl from primary school as many of u were...during our secondary school i think we can all count with our fingers how many times we sung the english version...;P

so here's the version I could sing without lyrics at least:P lol

~School Song: Malay Version~
BBGS, kami berikrar,

Cinta dan usaha akan datang,

Bila kami menjadi dewasa,

Menjadi puteri negara.

Tuhan Agung Maha Pengasih,

Dengarlah permohonan kami,

Agar membina warisan murni,

Zaman demi zaman.

Didik kami semasa muda,

Bertangggungjawab teguh dan benar,

Kurniakan kebenaran,

Kekalkan negara kami.

Pohon kami nilai sempurna,

Keriangan tanpa kebencian,

Mengampunkan segala dosa,

Kasihi semua insan.

BBGS, kami berikrar,

Cinta dan usaha akan datang,

Bila kami menjadi dewasa,

Menjadi puteri negara.

and hehe I personally like the centenary song a lot though i was not part of the school yet when it celebrated its 100th birthday...

~BBGS Centenary Song~

If through these walls,

we can hear the stories long ago,

Those BBGS dreams their hopes and more...

And if through these walls,

we can see the days before,

We'll see the joy, the rise and growth,

Every smile that greets hello

Names may change and faces pass,

But the tune's the samewe'll make it last,

We'll learn these words before they come to pass

BBGS in my heart,

ten decades we've grown to love,

Add a hundred more,

my heart will still belong,

Within these cherished walls

Here on these walls I've found meanings of love,

To conquer fears, to wipe the sorrow tears,

here I learned of friends, learned to give a helping hand,

And when I'm lost, they'll guide my way

with God's will till the end

Names may change and faces pass,

But the tune's the samewe'll make it last,

We'll learn these words before they come to pass...

Within these walls, we've built our lives

For a hundred years it stayed with us,

Let us keep it standing strong
