 ICTORIA, Queen of many lands, 
 A nation's loyal greeting take, 
 
 That stretches from Pacific sands 
 
 To where th' Atlantic surges break. 
 
 Five millions of thy subjects hail 
 Another year's auspicious close, 
 
 That sees in harmony prevail 
 
 The thistle, shamrock and the rose ; 
 
 [3] 
 
 M 
 
And o'er thy ever-wid'ning realm 
 Sees love nor loyalty abate ; 
 
 Still patriot statesmen hold the helm 
 And safely guide the ship of State. 
 
 O, Queen of Britain, whose proud flag 
 Floats over continent and sea, 
 
 Believe us that we do not lag 
 Behind the rest in love of thee.

Deem not that mid thv sons of Ind, 
 By storied stream and sacred fane, 
 
 Thou canst a warmer welcome find, 
 A people's deeper love obtain. 
 
 Australia's sons no recreants prove, 
 No traitors to their Mother-land ; 
 
 Still stronger grows that nation's love ; 
 Whose heritage is Afric's strand.

 We, in this northern cilme, no less, 
 
 Are bound to thee by ties most dear, 
 
 And hope that Providence may bless 
 Thee more with each revoivmg year. 
 
 For the same fate that haply forms 
 The giant ol the Austral seas, 
 
 The nation by the Cape of Storms, 
 Moulds our Canadian destinies.

 O, Mother-land across the sea, 
 
 A thousand years have come and gone 
 Since Egbert saved thy Uberty, 
 And welded Britain into one. 
 
 Through that long past thy glories shine, 
 Thy flag has never yet been furled; 
 
 Still nations kindle at thy shrine 
 
 The light of freedom for the world.

Where'er has rung the tyrant's knell, 
 Where'er secure doth freedom smile, 
 
 Unnumbered millions wish thee well. 
 Thoii little sea-girt northern isle. 
 
 Nor these alone, for thou hast been 
 The hope of all of those that strive, 
 
 In fastnesses and wilds of sin, 
 
 To keep the lamp of truth alive.

Thy boast has been to hpl.> and save 
 
 The poor, the weaV, pr;d the oppressed; 
 
 To strike the tyrant, tree tnc slave. 
 And aid the triumph of the best. 
 
 Should we, thy sons, less gratthil be 
 
 Than those whom ties less strong compel ? 
 
 No ! all the more we honour thee, 
 
 Who 'neath thy kindly sceptre dwell. 
 
 f9i 
 
Shall grand old England perish ? Nay ! 
 
 Her myriad sons shall round her stand, 
 And, back to back, shall guard for aye, 
 
 In freedom's cause, her sacred strand. 
 
 Should ancient foes, who deemed he slept, 
 Essay to strike that lion old, 
 
 Let them beware the vigil kept 
 
 By Britain's offspring brave and bold.

 They who would doubt the hon's might 
 Forget his sons the w,de world e'er 
 
 Who, swift to battle for the r.ght 
 
 Would fight as they have fought before. 
 
 No! Britain dies not. Many a day 
 ^ Her red-cross t?ag shall proudly fly 
 Oer new-born states that own her sway. 
 , And help to shape her destiny. 
 
 : [Hi 
 
From Canada, O Queen, receive 
 
 The loyal greetings of this day ; 
 
 Not traitors we, but, we believe. 
 
 Thine Empire's safest, surest stay. 
 
 We love the land our fathers made, 
 We treasure up its glorious past, 
 
 And 'neath that flag's endearing shade 
 We mean to dwell while time shall last.
