    O Canada! (English):

    O Canada!

    Our home and native land!

    True patriot love in all thy sons command.

    With glowing hearts we see thee rise,

    The True North strong and free!

    From far and wide, O Canada,

    We stand on guard for thee.

    God keep our land glorious and free!

    O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

    O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

    Ô Canada! (French):

    Ô Canada!

    Terre de nos aïeux,

    Ton front est ceint de fleurons glorieux!

    Car ton bras sait porter l'épée,

    Il sait porter la croix!

    Ton histoire est une épopée

    Des plus brillants exploits.

    Et ta valeur, de foi trempée,

    Protégera nos foyers et nos droits

    Protégera nos foyers et nos droits.

    Keep in mind that there is a current debate about changing the lyrics of the anthem to make it "gender neutral". This means changing the verse in the English anthem that says "True patriot love in all thy 'sons' command." I agree with you in that the anthem is beautiful enough in itself and doesn't need to be changed for the sake of political correctness.
