My name is Kabir, and I'm from Bangladesh
At first, I was a general worker at the forecourt
Now, I’m in charge

A Home Away From Home
#ShellKita
[Kabir]
The first year, I struggled
I didn’t understand a lot of things
I speak in Balgladeshi and I asked, how do you say "Amee Mat Khabor"?
In Malaysia, we say “mau makan”
So, I started writing it down on my notebook,
and I would refer to it everyday
Whenever I’ve free time, I will learn the language

[Kabir]
Where’s my book?
I love helping other people
5 years ago, I was the only Bangladeshi working here
Before me, there wasn’t any other Bangladeshis
My bosses said I work well
She asked if I could get others to work here
So, I asked my relatives to work here

[Kabir]
We live and eat together.
When you’re alone, it’s hard to find help
Together, we can share the load
[Prince]
Whenever I have problems
He’s helped me in the past 4 years
Whenever I have problems
He’d try to help me fix them
[Kabir]
At work, it doesn’t matter if you’re a Malaysian or a foreigner
We are all family
I always think that Malaysians are good people
It’s because you can accept me here, that’s why I’m here
If you can’t accept me here, I can’t stay
So, I think Malaysians are good people
