Melaka Maju Jaya (Jawi: ملاک ماجو جاي‎)), pronounced [məlaka madʒu dʒaja]); "Malacca, Onwards Come!") is the official anthem of the Malaysia state of Malacca. It was introduced and played for the first time on 31 August 1974 in conjunction with the state level independence day at that time.

The music was composed by Saiful Bahri, who also wrote the lyrics to the Selangor state anthem, Duli Yang Maha Mulia and Alias Arshad of the Royal Malaysian Police, while the lyrics were composed by a committee led by state secretary Datuk Haji Abu Mansor bin Haji Hassan. On 16 August 1994, the Malacca state government approved the modifications of the lyrics and tempo of the state anthem at its Executive council meeting to be played on 31 August that year.

Melaka, negeri bersejarah,
Tempat tumpah darah kita,
Dijunjung dengan sepenuh jiwa,
Untuk maju dan jaya!
Rakyat Melaka sudah bersatu padu,
Berikrar taat setia,
Jujur berkhidmat setiap masa,
Melaka, maju jaya!

Malacca, o historic land,
The place where our blood has been shed,
We'll uphold with heart and hand,
Your glory by our toil!
We the people come as one,
Sworn solemn to be true,
To serve you the ages through,
Malacca, onwards come!
