Oh well... Let's face the fact.
It's probably the last 2 days you'll see me in band,
My last 2 days standing in front of WCB's contingent as a DM.
My last 2 days sitting in the band room as a Clarinetist of WCB.
My last 2 days greeting "SAT WATT DEE AHH CHAN KING".
My last 2 days saying "Thank you Sir, Goodbye Sir, See you Sir, Sayonara Sir Adios Sir".
My last 2 days . . .
My last SYF.
My last performance.
My last glory i can do for WCB.
My last time wearing my band uniform.
I'll miss WHITLEY CONCERT BAND.
I'll miss all the BANDIES.
I'll miss my CLARINET.
I'll miss the MACE.
I'll miss the BAND ROOM.

I'll miss performing in VCH.
I'll remember all the beautiful memories we had together.
I'll remember the times when we struggled.

I'll remember all the performances we performed.
I'll remember all the FESTSPIELs.
I'll remember KL TRIP.
I'll remember all the Balloon Hats' Festival we had participated.
I'll remember the feeling of SYF!!!
I'll remember each and everyone of YOU.
WHITLEY CONCERT BAND shall stay in OUR hearts FOREVER.

ALL THE BEST, WHITLEY CONCERT BAND!!!
