Lyrics of Biar Jasa Jadi Kenangan
Yakinkanlah diri sendiri
Berjuanglah sejiwa murni
Tekun, berani sesungguh hati
Demi sukan mengharum negeri
Biar jasa jadi kenangan
Hijau Kuning lambang kemegahan
Jelapang Padi tempat sanjungan
Negeri Kedah Darul AmanKedah,
Kedah pantang kalah
Walau sakit, jatuh dan rebah
Bangun lantas semula gagah
Bujur lalu melintang patah
Hijau Kuning darahku
Darul Aman negeriku
Hijau Kuning darahkuNegeri Kedah negeriku
Negeri Kedah negeriku
( ciptaan Datuk Ahmad Basri )
