Tribute to the Canadians in the Italian Campaign (1943 – 1945) - to the tune of "The Maple Leaf Forever"
In forty-three, the boys set sail, over the sea to Sicily. Then to the mainland on they went, to the north of Italy. A hard-fought fight with many deaths, the price for King and Country, We come to pay them tribute now, Our brave Canadian soldiers.
Chorus
The Maple Leaf, our emblem dear, The Maple Leaf Forever! God Save our Queen and Heaven bless The Maple Leaf Forever

D-Day Words for The Maple Leaf Forever
In '44, on June the Sixth, We made landfall at Juno Beach. Our brave Canadian lads fought hard, In their quest to make Europe free. The price they paid was very high, Succeed they did in winning. The French and Dutch will ne'er forget The sacrifice of many.
Chorus
The Maple Leaf our emblem dear, The Maple Leaf forever. God Save the King and heaven bless, The Maple Leaf Forever.
Tribute to the end of the Great War
In 1918, peace at last! Guns fell silent, war was past The boys came home forever changed, time to think of a fresh new start. In Flanders Fields, where poppies grow and graves bear silent witness, To the sacrifice of many young men, who died for King and Country!
Chorus
The Maple Leaf, our emblem dear, The Maple Leaf Forever! God Save our Queen and Heaven bless The Maple Leaf Forever

Tribute to the soldiers of the Royal Newfoundland Regiment to the tune of The Maple Leaf Forever
In 1914, we set sail, o'er the Atlantic's billowing waves Responding to the Empire's call we fought at Gallipoli. At Beaumont Hamel, on July the First, our losses were horrific; On Memorial Day we'll ne'er forget, the sacrifice of so many.
Chorus
The caribou our emblem dear, a tribute to our soldiers Who gave their lives for their island home, The Rock of Newfoundland.

Chorus
The Maple Leaf, our emblem dear, The Maple Leaf Forever! God Save our Queen and Heaven bless The Maple Leaf Forever.
