《前進吧,新加坡!》(馬來語:Majulah Singapura)是新加坡的國歌。這首歌於1958年由朱比賽為新加坡議會的正式集會作曲,於1959年新加坡取得自治時獲選為新加坡自治邦邦歌,並於1965年獲得完全獨立時正式採用為新加坡共和國國歌。
根據法律規定,人們只可以唱國歌的馬來語原詞,不過新加坡其他三種官方語言的官方翻譯獲得當局認可,它們是英語、華語以及坦米爾語[1]。
學校和武裝部隊軍營通常會在一天的開始或結束時舉行升旗或降旗儀式,並演奏或唱國歌,同時宣讀信約。新加坡政府鼓勵新加坡人在舉國同慶或對國家有重大意義的場合唱國歌[2],例如國慶慶典、教育機構及政府機構舉行的國慶紀念典禮,以及新加坡團隊參與的體育比賽。此外,新傳媒電視各頻道亦會在每日凌晨播出一次國歌;而對於非24小時廣播頻道而言,則為每日收播前夕播出一次國歌。

歷史
[編輯]創作
[編輯]《前進吧,新加坡!》是新加坡爭取脫離英國管治的時期譜寫的。新加坡當時受英國殖民統治時,演唱的是目前的英國國歌《天佑女王》。1958年,當時的新加坡市議會副市長王邦文請作曲家朱比賽為市議會創作正式集會作曲,歌名為《前進吧,新加坡!》(Majulah Singapura)[4]。這首歌歌名源自於1958年9月維多利亞劇院的開幕典禮的座右銘[5]。
當時的朱比賽使用了大約一年的時間才完成了這首歌的音樂和歌詞。在1984年的採訪中,他回憶並表示了當時的過程。他表示在改歌這麼短的旋律中,他需要把所有的詞都放進去且要讓歌詞簡易,讓所有人都可以理解新加坡的種族。朱比賽還說到當年他還諮詢了一位馬來語作者以幫助他使用適當的馬來語來做,且讓歌詞詞句不會太深也不會太難。朱比賽在總結他在創作國歌時的哲學時引用了馬來諺語「我們應感恩這土地給予的一切」(馬來原文:Di mana bumi dipijak, di situ langit dijunjung)。
之後,在1958年9月6日時,完成的作品由新加坡室內樂團在維多利亞劇院舉行的一場音樂會中首次演出,以慶祝其正式重新開放。
正式使用
[編輯]1959年,新加坡實現自治,則市議會宣布解散。當時的政府認為國歌需要是一首民族歌以宣揚新加坡人團結新加坡的各個種族的精神,於是新加坡副總理杜進才選用了《前進吧,新加坡!》[4][6]。其他的原因包含該歌已經在民間流行起來。之後,朱比賽修改了歌詞和旋律,而修改後的歌曲於1959年11月11日被新加坡立法議會所通過。同年11月30日,新加坡國家武器和國旗和國歌條例被通過並規範於與新加坡國徽的使用和展示。
《前進吧,新加坡!》於12月3日正式成為馬來西亞新加坡州的洲歌,而當時尤索夫·賓·伊薩克就任新加坡國家元首。1965年,新加坡脫離馬來西亞獨立,於是《前進吧,新加坡!》也就成為了新加坡共和國國歌[7]。
樂譜更動
[編輯]《前進吧,新加坡!》最初以G大調作曲,2000年新加坡政府委託潘耀田為國歌重新編曲。2001年1月19日正式公布,國歌的旋律正式調降為F大調,為的是讓國歌聽起來更雄壯和更振奮人心。
使用指引
[編輯]使用場合
[編輯]地方場合
[編輯]在新加坡的小學中,國歌和唱國歌是新加坡公民的道德教育課程之一[8] 。而所有學校和新加坡的武裝部隊都會在每天開始或結束當天的事情時舉行唱國歌的儀式,同時會升起或降下新加坡國旗,並朗讀新加坡國家信約[8][9]。但在商業場合上不可做出該行為,以免冒犯其他國家的人事物。
新加坡政府自2004年將《演唱和演奏國歌準則》放寬演唱國歌的限制後,在國歌該方面特別的鼓勵新加坡公民在新加坡的國家場合上演唱國歌[10]。新加坡國家場合上就包括新加坡國慶日、新加披的閱兵儀式、新加坡所舉辦的活動或體育賽事上演唱國歌[11]。
譬如2004年11月,18歲的王儷婷在2006年世界盃亞洲區域預選賽時,於日本埼玉縣的埼玉體育場演唱新加坡國歌。之後在2005年1月,新加坡歌手陶菲克·巴蒂薩亞受邀成為首位在新加坡國家體育場舉行的東協足球錦標賽,新加坡與印度尼西亞的決賽上上演唱國歌。可惜的是,後續陶菲克·巴蒂薩亞卻因新加坡政府的國民服役政策導致無法參加演出,後則由傑·瓦哈卜取代其參加演出。
2019年8月,已退休的新加坡搖滾樂手拉姆利·薩里普,在2019年的國慶儀式上演唱了與原歌譜不一樣、被譽為「振奮人心」式的新加坡國歌,並受到了褒貶不一的評論。同年12月3日,當事人在事後甚釋出基於2019年8月他演唱的歌譜所改編的音樂視頻,即修訂版的新加坡國歌。而新加坡網民甚至表示這種演繹版本仿佛如葬禮式,或稱哀樂版本。新加坡國歌創作者朱比賽的女兒也公開寫信出來批評道拉姆利·薩里普的這個音樂視頻。在信中,她表示她對此事感到失望。她說到當他聽完這個改編版的新加坡國歌,她認為有侮辱到身為一個國歌的尊嚴、尊重和高昂。她補充說到新加坡人民非常的有創造能力,但不應該把創造力用於在更改國家國歌的樂譜。她認為國歌不應該是一個可以讓人任意更改、重新創作的領域,其意指不應做國歌或國家象徵一類等的改編,並覺得是有諷刺或侮辱到該國的事物,應該尊重國家象徵。她也表示對於新加坡人來說,國家象徵和國家的歷史是新加坡人感到自豪的地方,有像她的父親等新加坡建國功臣,因為他們都為國家的建設做出貢獻而受人尊敬。[12][13]
電視廣播
[編輯]除了以上的使用場合外,新加坡的電視台也會在對應的時間播放國歌。但實際上在目前已因為24小時電視台的出現導致新加坡國歌的出場率有所下降。
像新傳媒5頻道和新傳媒8頻道都會在每日上午6時前播放國歌,象徵電視台的廣播日,即一日的開始播出節目到結束播放節目的時間。而此做法也被亞洲新聞台CNA在全新加坡所使用。非24小時的電視台實際會在結束節目的播映時再次播放國歌,但由於24小時電視台是無限式播出,將代表著只需要播放1次的國歌。
During its run on television, Channel U's founder Singapore Press Holdings initiated the use of authorised translations during the anthem at sign-offs of channels (depending on the respective channel's main language). The practice ended on 1 January 2005, when SPH's MediaWorks properties were merged with Mediacorp; the latter revived the use in 2012, albeit with the translated lyrics only appearing on channels outside Malay. On radio, all radio stations begin their daily broadcast by playing the full version of the anthem at exactly 6:00 am, except Malay station Warna 94.2FM which plays it at 5:00 am as a way of protecting the protocol from reaching the Islamic Azan Subuh (which occurs between around 5:25 and 5:58 am). Since the launch of the updated national anthem on 3 December 2019, all radio stations play the full version of the National Anthem.
The national anthem has lent its name[14] to the Majulah Connection, a Singapore-based not-for-profit organization set up November 2002 to connect Singapore with overseas Singaporeans and friends of Singapore. The organisation was formally established as a non-governmental organization (NGO) in January 2003.[15]
使用法則
[編輯]國歌的使用事實上受到《新加坡武器、國旗和國歌法》中的《新加坡武器和國旗及國歌規則》的約束[16][17]。法律中的規定如下:
相關禮儀
[編輯]每當新加坡國歌開始播放時,說有在場的人需要遵守相關禮儀。
演奏國歌時,在場人員需要雙臂站立;而身著新加坡軍服或准軍服的人員則需披上頭飾並面向國旗。如果新加坡軍隊們當時是由指揮官所帶領,他們僅需要向指揮官敬禮;否則,他們需向在場的所有服務人員們敬禮。
- 國歌可以在任何適當的場合下或國家場合上所演出[18]。尤其是在新加坡總統敬禮之時。[19]
- 當演奏新加坡國歌時,所有在場人員必須起立以示尊敬。[20]
- 演奏國歌前的相關安排:
- 任何要演唱或演奏新加坡國歌的人員們都必須按照新加坡政府於此法案中所[21]
- The national anthem may be rearranged in any manner that is in keeping with the dignity due to it, subject to the following conditions:
- (a) the national anthem must not be incorporated into any other composition or medley; and
- (b) every arrangement of the national anthem must accurately reflect the complete tune and the complete official lyrics of the National Anthem.[22]
- Any person who sings the national anthem must follow the official lyrics and must not sing any translation of those lyrics.[23]
It is an offence for any person to knowingly perform or sing the national anthem in contravention of rule 13(1) (not performing or singing the anthem according to the official arrangement or any other permitted arrangement) or 13(3) (not singing the anthem according to the official lyrics or singing a translation of the lyrics); the penalty is a fine not exceeding S$1,000.[24]
In addition, guidelines issued by the Ministry of Communications and Information (MCI) state that either instrumental or vocal versions of the national anthem may be performed and that dignity and decorum should be observed whenever the anthem is played or sung.[25]
國歌的安排
[編輯]自 1963 年以來,官方機構一直使用Majulah Singapura的刪節版,但存在僅用於盛大儀式的擴展版。該版本是由一個英國人,安排邁克爾·赫德。該編曲於1989年由林佑指揮的新加坡交響樂團首次錄製。[26][27]
國歌的原始版本是G大調,但1983年,學校發行了一個教育錄音帶,描述了唱國歌的常見錯誤,並提供了唱F大調國歌的選項。[26](這是在 1986 年新加坡國慶遊行期間首次向公眾展示的版本。)[28] In 1993, the shorter version of Majulah Singapura was declared to be the official one.[29]
On 19 January 2001, Majulah Singapura was officially relaunched in the F-major key, as it was said to be a "grander and more inspiring arrangement"[30] of the anthem. The Ministry of Information and the Arts (MITA, now the Ministry of Communications and Information (MCI)) took more than a year to produce the new version. Its main objective was to make the anthem more accessible to all Singaporeans. In May 2000, several leading local composers were invited to rearrange the national anthem in F major. An evaluation panel was headed by Bernard Tan. He proposed that the original composition in G major resulted in a highest note being E, which he felt was too high pitched to sing easily, so he proposed a slightly lower F major that results in the highest note being a more easily sung D.[31] The panel selected the version submitted by Cultural Medallion winner Phoon Yew Tien. Phoon's orchestration employed a slower tempo and used more instruments to create a majestic rendition of the anthem. MITA then commissioned Ken Lim[32] to produce a recording by the Singapore Symphony Orchestra conducted by Lim Yau, which was carried out at the Victoria Concert Hall on 20 November 2000. The new arrangement[33] was recorded in seven versions, including two orchestral versions (instrumental, and with soloist Jacintha Abisheganaden and the Singapore Youth Choir) and a piano solo version.[30][34]
On 3 December 2019, a new recording of Majulah Singapura by the Singapore Symphony Orchestra was released with improvements in sound quality. The new version was first broadcast at National Gallery, exactly 60 years after the anthem was first released. In addition, this version is 5 seconds shorter than the 2001 recording. The new version was recorded at The Esplanade Concert Hall on 7 August 2019. The new recording still uses Phoon Yew Tien's arrangement, albeit with more young voices.[35]
歌詞的改變
[編輯]In its original composition, an instrumental interlude of the first two verses follows the chorus of the song, then the chorus is sung twice to finish it. Zubir Said modified the song from there, as requested by Toh Chin Chye, by removing 8 bars starting from "Bangun dengan bersatu sama-sama..." to "...kerja sama menuju bahagia!" in order to bring forward the emphasis of the 8th line "Berjaya Singapura!".[36] The move was also seen as making the anthem more neutral as the eight bars also contained subtle motives brought from Malay musical elements.[37] Also, the interlude was removed in the national anthem version.
歌詞的翻譯
[編輯]Interviewed by the Oral History Department in 1989, Toh Chin Chye said it was appropriate for the national anthem to be in Malay, "the indigenous language of the region, as English is not native to this part of the world." He felt that the "Malay version of the national anthem would appeal to all races... it can be easily understood. And at the same time [it] can be easily remembered... . [I]t must be brief, to the point;... and can be sung".[38] However, on 22 July 1991, the English daily newspaper The Straits Times reported that during a meeting between the then Prime Minister Goh Chok Tong and community leaders,[39] a group of grassroots leaders and a lawyer had suggested that "adjustments" be made to the national anthem. The given reason was that many Singaporeans could not sing it in Malay and so did not have "strong feelings" or "strong emotions when they sing the national anthem".[40]
In particular, some grassroots leaders argued that since the Chinese constitute a majority of the population, a Mandarin version of the anthem should be used.[40] The Prime Minister's response was that he would keep the national anthem as it was but would ensure that translations in other mother tongues were more easily available.[39] The proposal to change the lyrics was also criticized by former Deputy Prime Minister S. Rajaratnam, who felt that the Malay lyrics of the anthem were so simple that "anyone over the age of five, unless mentally retarded, had no difficulty singing the anthem. All Singaporean children of kindergarten age have not only had no difficulty memorising the words but have for decades sung it every morning with 'strong feelings and emotion'." He also noted that the anthem had been translated into Singapore's three other official languages (English, Mandarin and Tamil) for those who cannot understand Malay.[40]
A subsequent poll by The Straits Times found that while many Singaporeans knew what the anthem generally meant, only seven out of 35 persons interviewed knew the meaning of each word. However, all but three of those interviewed agreed that the anthem should continue to be sung in Malay. The three persons who disagreed felt that the anthem should be in English because that was the language most commonly used in Singapore. All the interviewees, including those who did not know the meaning of the lyrics, said they felt a sense of pride when they heard or sang the national anthem.[39]
Singer Taufik Batisah was criticised for incorrectly singing the word berseru (to proclaim) instead of bersatu (to unite) during his rendition of Majulah Singapura before the start of the 2009 Formula 1 SingTel Singapore Grand Prix on 27 September 2009. A Straits Times poll then found that out of 50 people only 10 were able to sing the national anthem perfectly. Most people got between 80 and 90% of the lyrics right, while six could recite only the first line or less. Although many correctly stated that the title of the anthem meant "Onward Singapore", a majority did not understand the meaning of the anthem. However, most of the persons surveyed disagreed that the anthem should be in English, with one respondent saying: "It's better in Malay because there's a cultural history to it and [it] is more meaningful, and has traces to our roots."[8]
