Oh Canada, land vast and wide, where nature’s majesty does reside. From Rockies that kiss the endless skies, to northern lights where wonder lies.

Your lakes, your forests, your winds that sing, Nature’s anthem on eagle’s wing. We tread your soil with humble care, Guardians of treasures beyond compare.

Yet it’s not just the earth that makes us whole, It’s the heart, the spirit, the collective soul. A mosaic of cultures, bound as one, United beneath your rising sun.

From the Inuit’s wisdom, rich and profound, To the festivals where joy abounds. We weave our stories, diverse, yet tied, In harmony, we stand with pride.

Oh Canada, your heart beats true, With values noble, and visions new. Kindness flows through each endeavor, A beacon of hope, now and forever.

Your poets, your artists, your athletes who strive, Teach us to dream and keep passions alive. Your peacekeepers bring light where shadows fall, Your voice speaks justice to one and all.

Oh land of the maple, the true north strong, Our anthem hums in every song. With gratitude deep, we rise and say, We are Canada, come what may.

So let the music swell, let the words take flight, For Canada, our home, our guiding light. With pride and love, we boldly stand, Forever loyal to this blessed land.

And here we vow with steadfast grace, Our sovereignty shall never be displaced. We chart our course with heads held high, Beneath our flag, our spirits fly.

Not a star on their stripes, nor hand to their fate, For Canada alone decides its state. We walk our path, free and strong, In our own hands, we belong.

Oh Canada, sovereign and free, Yours is the song of eternity.
