Canadian National Anthem – Ô Canada [French version]

Ô Canada!
Terre de nos aïeux,
Ton front est ceint de fleurons glorieux!
Car ton bras sait porter l'épée,
Il sait porter la croix!
Ton histoire est une épopée
Des plus brillants exploits.
Et ta valeur, de foi trempée,
Protégera nos foyers et nos droits.
Protégera nos foyers et nos droits.
 
Translation

O Canada

O Canada!
Land of our ancestors
Your brow1 is adorned with glorious jewels!
For your arm knows how to bear the sword
It knows how to bear the cross!
Your history is a saga
Of the most brillant exploits
And your valour, made out of hardened2 faith,
Will protect our homes and our rights
Will protect our homes and our rights
 
  • 1. Lit.: Your forehead.
  • 2. Or 'tempered', as in 'tempered/hardened steel'.
