The Maple Trees Remember |
In days of yore from foreign shores |
The royal minions came |
And planted firm their feckless flags |
On such a fair domain |
It marked the beginnings of the end |
Of those who first were there |
The cultures and a people proud |
Were lost forevermore |
The maple tree who once stood strong |
Come gather round and sing this song together |
Forget their queen and all she mans |
The Maple Tree |
The Maple Tree Remember |
Protect the weak and show the strength |
Of natural cathedrals in paradise |
Above which shine |
The northern lights |
The way we are, remember? |
Mountains and prairies |
From sea to sea |
Blue unending skies |
If you spy those endless skies |
A hungry eagle flies |
Oh Canada your forests stood |
For 250 million moons |
With axe and saw |
They hacked you down |
The end will be here soon |
The marathon of greed decreed |
Those traitors made it all clear |
Majestic trees who once grew tall |
Were doomed to disappear |
