Baba Nyonya Mari-Go-Round!
Music by Chris Fong
Lyrics by Chris Fong & Richard Tan

Life is a circle ‘O’,
Just like a merry go round
We all go round and round and around
Macham, mari-go-round!

We start from here then there
We’re back to the start once again
Like a full cycle na-ik bicycle
We journey through pain and toil oh!
Our journey of love and joy!

The lessons we learnt, we treasure it all
The circle of life that we found oh!
Kita go mari-go-round

Jiwa nyawa, hati kita
Mesti senang, toksa susah
Ada adat dan ada budi
Jadi orang kita mesti …tau chai see!

Hari-hari we try to be
Bet-ter than we were previously
In good and bad, all in harmony
We are happy and glad, for you and me
Our circle of life … be free!
~ instrumental break ~

The lessons we learnt, we treasure it all
The circle of life that we found oh!
Kita go mari-go-round

Jiwa nyawa, hati kita
Mesti senang, toksa susah
Ada adat dan ada budi
Jadi orang kita mesti …tau chai see! 

Hari-hari we try to be
Bet-ter than we were previously
In good and bad, all in harmony
We are happy and glad, for you and me
Our circle of life … be free!
