Hidup Sambil Belajar

Murid-murid dengan hati bersatu penuh semangat membara

Mendapat didikan serta ilmu demi kemakmuran negara

Menghadapi segala cabaran mengatasi segala bebanan

Rajin berusaha dalam pelajaran dan cemerlang di bidang sukan

Bertabah hati, yakinkan diri, hidup adil saksama

Sentiasa bersyukur, mencintai yang luhur dan bertimbang rasa,

Dengan hasrat untuk menjayakan cita sumpah dan ikrar,

Di Sekolah Menengah Hamid Khan kami hidup sambil belajar.
