Canada Day, July 1st Let us stand this 1st of July And sing O Canada in salutation And salute the Maple Leaf waving In the sky above our nation. Let us conciliate accord peacefully, Where diversity is enlightenment For the citizenry of our country, In proud affirmation to be Canadian. As we celebrate our anniversary And reflect on our heritage and legacy, We honour both the fallen and living For their sacrifices to keep us free. Victorious and proudly displayed, That flag in the wind symbolizes unity For a nation encompassed by three oceans and two borders: Stays Canada, our home and native land.
