O For A Thousand Tongues to Sing

"Let my language return to my lips, that it may flow and glisten like a prized treasure, like the fame strength of the titi in all its glory. Let is sound once more resound in all the corners of the Te Waipoumamu. A thousand goods a thousand dreams," Maori saying

"I can forsake everything in the world except my chinese language," My friend, May.

"Yang kurik itu kendi,
Yang merah itu saga,
Yang cantik itu budi,
Yang indah itu bahasa," Malay poem
