Hail Britannia's noblest daughter,

Who is surrounded by the water

Of many a lake and broad sea,

Land of beaver and of maple tree.

Her lofty brow is wreathed with smiles,

For from the far Atlantic isles

In pomp have come their delegates,

All seeking to unite their fates.

With Canada great northern queen,

And now throughout the land is seen,

High festival and stately dance,

Triumphant nuptials to advance.

And soon shall Red River valley

And distant Vancouver rally,

To form this Empire gigantic

From Pacific to Atlantic.
