Indonesia, tanah airku, tanah tumpah darahku.
Di sanalah aku berdiri, jadi pandu ibuku.

Indonesia my native land, the land where I shed my blood.
There I stand, being a soldier of my mother.

Indonesia, kebangsaanku, bangsa dan tanah airku.
Marilah kita berseru, "Indonesia bersatu!"

Indonesia my nationality, my nation and my country.
Let us exclaim "United Indonesia!"

Hiduplah tanahku, hiduplah neg'riku,
Bangsaku, rakyatku, semuanya.
Bangunlah jiwanya, bangunlah badannya
Untuk Indonesia Raya!

Live my land, live my state,
My nation, my people, all.
Build its spirit, build its bodies
For Great Indonesia!

CHORUS:
Indonesia Raya, merdeka, merdeka
Tanahku, neg'riku yang kucinta.
Indonesia Raya, merdeka, merdeka
Hiduplah Indonesia Raya!

CHORUS:
Indonesia Raja, merdeka, merdeka
Tanahkoe, neg'rikoe jang koetjinta.
Indonesia Raja, merdeka, merdeka
Hidoeplah Indonesia Raja!

About Anthem

Istiqlal Mosque in Jakarta

Indonesia Raya (Indonesia Raja in old Indonesian spelling.) is the national anthem of the Republic of Indonesia. The song was introduced by its composer, Wage Rudolf Supratman, at 28 October 1928 in a national youth convention in Batavia (now Jakarta).

The song marked the birth of the all-archipalego nationalist movement in Indonesia that supported the idea of one single "Indonesia" as successor to the Dutch East Indies, then split into several colonies.

The first paper to openly publish the text "Indonesia Raya" - a daring act of defiance towards the Dutch authorities - was the Chinese Indonesian weekly Sin Po, a fact still noted with pride by the Chinese Indonesian community.

It was chosen as the national anthem when Indonesia proclaimed its independence at 17 August 1945 (photo: Istiqlal Mosque in Jakarta /souruce: Wikipedia).
