O, land of blue unending skies,
|
Mountains strong and sparkling snow,
|
A scent of freedom in the wind,
|
O'er the emerald fields below.
|
|
To thee we brought our hopes, our dreams,
|
For thee we stand together,
|
Our land of peace, where proudly flies,
|
The Maple Leaf forever.
|
|
Long may it wave, and grace our own,
|
Blue skies and stormy weather,
|
Within my heart, above my home,
|
The Maple Leaf forever!
|
|
(Ladies and gentlemen, last minute of play)
|
|
Oh, Maple Leaf, around the world,
|
You speak as you rise high above,
|
Of courage, peace and quiet strength,
|
Of the Canada I love.
|
|
Remind us all our union bound,
|
By ties we cannot sever,
|
Bright flag revered on every ground,
|
The Maple Leaf forever!
|
|
Long may it wave, and grace our own,
|
Blue skies and stormy weather,
|
Within my heart, above my home,
|
The Maple Leaf forever!
|
