马来西亚宣言

奉大慈大悲上帝的名义，赞美宇宙主宰的上帝，祈求上帝以祝福及和平赐予吾人领袖默罕默德及其亲戚与友人。

鉴于马来亚联合邦、大不列颠与北爱尔兰联合王国、北婆罗洲、砂拉越和新加坡之间，在公元一千九百六十三年七月九日达成的一项协定，同意沙巴州、砂拉越州、新加坡州和包括由彭亨州、丁加奴州、吉打州、柔佛州、森美兰州、吉兰丹州、雪兰莪州、霹雳州、玻璃市州、槟城州和马六甲州的马来亚联合邦，将实行联合，这个联合邦此后将成为“马来西亚”：

又鉴于上诉协定之有关团体，已经同意自马来西亚成立后，沙巴州、砂拉越州和新加坡州，将停止为英国女王陛下的殖民地，同时女王陛下将放弃对这三州的主权和司法权：

又鉴于以及宣布的《马来西亚宪法》，将成为最高的法律：

又鉴于前述的宪法已经有订有条款，保护统治者陛下与殿下们的权利和特权，和人民的基本权利和自由，以及为现为一个基于国会民主的君主立宪政体的马来西亚的和平协调：

又鉴于马来亚联合邦和大不列颠与北爱尔兰联合王国在英国国会通过一项法律批准的前述宪法，已经在公元一千九百六十三年九月十六日生效，

现奉大慈大悲上帝的名义，本人，马来西亚首相东姑阿都拉曼，在马来亚联合邦最高元首陛下、新加坡国家元首阁下、沙巴国家元首阁下和砂拉越总督阁下的同意和批准下，代表马来西亚人民公布和宣告：自公元一千九百六十三年九月十六日，即回历一千三百八十三年九月二十八日起，包括由彭亨州、丁加奴州、吉打州、柔佛州、森美兰州、吉兰丹州、雪兰莪州、霹雳州、玻璃市州、槟城州、马六甲州、新加坡州、沙巴州和砂拉越州的马来西亚将借宇宙主宰上帝的荣耀，永远成为一个基于自由和公正的独立和主权的民主国家，为其人民寻求保护和维护和平与协调，以及在国际间保持和平。
