"Allah Lanjutkan Usia Sultan" (pronounced [allah landʒutkan usia sultan]; "God Lengthen the Sultan's Age") is the state anthem of Perak, Malaysia.
The tune was originally that of "La Rosalie", a popular song in the Seychelles during the 19th century, originally written by French composer Pierre-Jean de Béranger. It was adopted as Perak's royal anthem by Sultan Abdullah Muhammad Shah II, who was exiled in the Seychelles for abetting murder.
In 1957, the national anthem of Malaysia, "Negaraku" was set to the melody of "Allah Lanjutkan Usia Sultan".
