The Flag Of Newfoundland

sheet music



The pink the rose of England shows,
The green St. Patrick's emblem bright,
While in between the spotless sheen
Of Andrew's cross displays the white.
Then hail the pink, the white, the green,
Our patriot flag long may it stand.
Our sirelands twine their emblems trine
To form the flag of Newfoundland.

Fling out the flag o'er creek and crag.
Pink, white, and green, so fair, so grand.
Long may it sway o'er bight and bay
Around the shores of Newfoundland.

What e'er betide our ocean bride
That nestles midst Atlantic's foam
Still far and wide we'll raise our pride,
Our native flag o'er hearth and home.
Should e'er the hand of Fate demand,
Some future change in our career,
We ne'er will yield on flood or field
The flag we honour and revere.

####.... Archbishop Michael F. Howley, 1902 ....####
