If I want to live. If I want
to be the Light,
if I want to give,
if I want to stop the fight,
I will have to be the stars,
I will have to seek
that, what truely is;
my light, shall it be not meek.

As in the age of self- and online publishing more and more people who do not know the rules of typography or would like to know more about them may find it interesting to have a closer look, you can find some information by going here.
It is incredible how many Malaysian dictionaries and grammars you can find online at archive.org. Although they are rather older, I hope they can help (be careful with the spelling in the first one, though), as I have read the Malaysian language has not changed that much.
I will see whether this is true.
