Canada by Munda
Canada, oh Canada
what hast thou done with me
whenever I do close my eyes
my heart is there with thee
Your mountains and great forests
of an infinity
Sequoias stand majestically
ancient serenity
What everlasting pleasure
lies in your scenery
the crumbling walls of what once was
beneath a Maple tree
Golden fields of waving grain
whisper a lullaby
the sunset slowly fades away
beyond your endless sky
Canada, oh Canada
what hast thou done with me
I feel thou whispers in my soul
I wish to be with thee
I spot a single red deer
scent danger in the breeze
the slightest noise will make her flee
among your mighty trees
I see your children playing
out on a frozen pond
at snowball fights and slapping pucks
a magic way beyond
Mem'ries of the days gone by
engraved into my soul
return to you I will some day
it's always been my goal
Canada, oh Canada
what hast thou done with me
thou temptress of my craving heart
I long to be with thee
what hast thou done with me
whenever I do close my eyes
my heart is there with thee
Your mountains and great forests
of an infinity
Sequoias stand majestically
ancient serenity
What everlasting pleasure
lies in your scenery
the crumbling walls of what once was
beneath a Maple tree
Golden fields of waving grain
whisper a lullaby
the sunset slowly fades away
beyond your endless sky
Canada, oh Canada
what hast thou done with me
I feel thou whispers in my soul
I wish to be with thee
I spot a single red deer
scent danger in the breeze
the slightest noise will make her flee
among your mighty trees
I see your children playing
out on a frozen pond
at snowball fights and slapping pucks
a magic way beyond
Mem'ries of the days gone by
engraved into my soul
return to you I will some day
it's always been my goal
Canada, oh Canada
what hast thou done with me
thou temptress of my craving heart
I long to be with thee

When I visited Canada for the fist time it was "love at fist sight." Every time I returned, it felt like a homecoming. A part of me is always there and I'm in a constant state of being torn between two lovers. Ah, sweet memories of days gone by and dreams of days yet to come.

Your poem was beautiful. I was born and raised in Canada, and am proud to be Canadian. When I walk in my neighbourhood, I am reminded of the simplistic beauty that is my country. Your poem enhanced Canada's natural beauty even further. Thank you for honouring my country. - Georgia |
