校歌

i was chatting wif baohuan when we got to the topic of AHS' 50th anniversary tis yr.

suddenli, he asked if i knew tat they changed the skool song. OMG! how could they do such a thing?

if there's anything i'm proud of, it's the sense of belonging i feel for AHS. before tdy, i had even hoped tat my kids can stardee there too.

but now, the whole thing juz seem absurd to mi.

yes, i still rem part of the skool song. in fact, my bro sang the first line for mi straightaway when i asked him juz nw.

now we can no longer relate to AHS thru the skool song. we can't even sing along if they play the NEW skool song.

y r they doing tis? tis will alienate all the past cohorts of AHS boys & gers.

i feel beli indignant abt it. i feel tat they're forsaking our legacy. i can't feel any sense of belonging to a skool whose skool song is foreign to mi !

i jio-ed baohuan to start an online petition abt tis. it'll b up by tomolo.

dear fellow AHS ppl, pls sign the petition when it is ready tomolo & support the cause to keep the original skool song !

we r hoping to get at least a hundred signatures, 100 from each cohort. pls spread the word to all AHS ppl, thanx!

for the benefit of everyone, here's the original skool song :

浩荡嵯峨气象雄,黉舍峙,狮岛中。 圣洁公义道之宗,肇锡佳名号圣公。
咨爾多士慎磨砻,维上帝,临汝躬。 春弦夏誦莫从容, 干云之木自青葱。
进德修业树风声三教就四德成。永为基督之精兵永为邦国之干城

and tis is the revised :


浩荡圣中气象雄
如鹰展翅岛中
圣洁公义我尊崇
远近嘉名号圣公
治学立业须谦恭
师友爱乐融融
把握今天勤用功
创造锦绣之前程
进德修业树校风
向着标杆力冲
永为基督之精兵
永为邦国之忠臣
