O Canada national anthem - All 4 verses

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jXFXXeoC4k0


O Canada!
Our home and native land!
True patriot love
in all thy sons command.
With glowing hearts we see thee rise
The True North strong and free!
From far and wide, O Canada,
We stand on guard for thee.
God keep our land glorious and free!
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee. O Canada!


The French version is quite different from the English. There have been several literal English translations of the anthem, but one of the best is taken from Songs of French Canada:

O Canada!
Terre de nos aieux,
Ton front est ceint
de fleurons glorieux!
Car ton bras sait porter l'é pée
Il sait porter la croix!
Ton histoire est une é popée
Des plus brillants exploits.
Et ta valeur de foi trempée,
Proté gera nos foyers et nos droits.
Proté gera nos foyers et nos droits.


Translated into English by a Montreal writer, William McLennan:

O Canada!
Land of our sires
Whose brow is bound
with glorious bays
The sword thy valourous
hand can wield
And bear the Cross that faith inspires
What mighty deeds hast thou beheld
An epogee of glorious sights
The faith, thy shield through all thy days
Shall still protect our homes and rights
Shall still protect our homes and rights.
