Eh I By - The Rock Lyrics

From the wind-swept shores of history,
To the waves of destiny,
A tale of strength and unity,
Newfoundland and Labrador, our legacy.
Through trials faced and victories won,
Our journey's just begun,
On the Rock where our hearts reside,
Together, we stand with pride.

In nineteen-forty-nine, a choice was made,
Newfoundland and Labrador, a new path laid,
Joined with Canada, the land so grand,
The Rock stands tall, a united stand.
From Joey Smallwood's guiding hand,
To modern times, we've grown this land,
A province proud, with spirit bright,
Through trials faced, we hold our light.
The Rock, where the puffins soar,
From the coasts to the Labrador,
In unity, we found our way,
Newfoundland and Labrador, here to stay.

The fishing grounds, our lifeblood's thread,
Faced the moratorium's dread,
Yet through the struggle and the strife,
We found new ways to shape our life.
Oil and gas beneath the sea,
Brought new hope and prosperity,
In St. John's streets and harbors wide,
The Rock's resilience, our true pride.

Puffins soar on winds so free,
Pitcher plants in bogs we see,
Codfish in the ocean deep,
Lighthouses our shores do keep.
Sailing ships on waters blue,
Wind and snow and rain come through,
Symbols of our land so dear,
Forevermore we hold them near.

The Rock, where the puffins soar,
From the coasts to Labrador,
In unity, we found our way,
Newfoundland and Labrador, here to stay.

Through storms and gales, we stand as one,
With minds as strong as the rising sun,
From outport towns to urban sprawl,
The Rock endures, standing tall.
Our culture rich, our stories told,
In music, art, and tales of old,
A legacy we proudly share,
The Rock's strength everywhere.

The Rock, where the puffins soar,
From the coasts to Labrador,
In unity, we found our way,
Newfoundland and Labrador, here to stay.

In every heart, a flame burns bright,
For the Rock, our guiding light,
From Gros Morne peaks to Torngat's range,
Our land of beauty, wild and strange.
With every step, we forge ahead,
Honoring the paths our ancestors tread,
Newfoundland and Labrador, our song,
Together we are strong.

Our flag of blue, red, gold, and white,
Waves proudly in the mauzy light,
With symbols strong, it tells our tale,
Of Labrador and Newfoundland's trail.
"Ode to Newfoundland," our anthem clear,
Resonates with pride each year,
In every heart, its words resound,
A tribute to our cherished ground.

The Rock, where the puffins soar,
From the coasts to Labrador,
In unity, we found our way,
Newfoundland and Labrador, here to stay.

"Ode to Newfoundland," our anthem clear,
Resonates with pride each year,
In every heart, its words resound,
A tribute to our cherished ground.

The Rock, where the puffins soar,
From the coasts to Labrador,
In unity, we found our way,
Newfoundland and Labrador, here to stay.

Oh, the Rock, our home, our pride,
Through changing tides, we'll always bide,
In the hearts of all, from near and far,
Newfoundland and Labrador, our shining star.
