00:00All right, the next song that Azaria is going to do is called the Maple Leaf Forever, which
00:06some of you may know. The interesting thing about this song is they were once considering
00:12two anthems. One of them was O Canada, and the other one was the Maple Leaf Forever.
00:18But because the Maple Leaf Forever didn't really fit in with the French Canadian people,
00:24it was rejected, and O Canada was selected instead. But, tonight, Azaria is going to
00:30sing the Maple Leaf Forever.
00:32In days of yore, from London's shore,
00:37Rolled along this hero cave,
00:41And planted firmly Britannia's flame
00:45On Canada's fair domain.
00:49Here may it wave, a boast of pride,
00:54And join in all together,
00:58But this old shadow grows entwined,
01:02The Maple Leaf forever.
01:06The Maple Leaf, our welcome dear,
01:10The Maple Leaf forever.
01:14God save the King, and heaven bless
01:19The Maple Leaf forever.
01:23That great sun hides a lonely flame,
01:28Our mothers side by side,
01:32For freedom's rights and loved ones dear,
01:36Firmly stood and nobly died.
01:40Then those dear rights, which they maintain,
01:45We swear to yield them never,
01:49Our watch for evermore shall be,
01:53The Maple Leaf forever.
01:57Our fair dominion now extends,
02:02From Cape Reis to Nootka Sound,
02:06For peace may ever be our law,
02:10And friendly Esther abound.
02:15And may those ties of glory art,
02:19Which discord cannot sever,
02:23The flourish great of freedom's home,
02:27The Maple Leaf forever.
02:31The Maple Leaf, our emblem dear,
02:36The Maple Leaf forever.
02:40God save the King, and heaven bless
02:44The Maple Leaf forever.
02:48On merry England's far-famed land,
02:53Bade thy Hammonds sweetly smile,
02:57God bless old Scotland evermore,
03:01And Hammonds evermore thou.
03:05Then swell the song, both loud and long,
03:09The rocks and forests forever,
03:13God save the King, and heaven bless
03:17The Maple Leaf forever.
03:21The Maple Leaf, our emblem dear,
03:26The Maple Leaf forever.
03:30God save the King, and heaven bless
03:34The Maple Leaf forever.
