Green Man of East Canada

from Great Brunswick Forest by Thrawsunblat

/

lyrics

I chanced to meet a strange man
Down a Brunswick lane,
Dressed in brown and a vagabond's cloak
A timeless image from the wood.
I stopped and said to him
Before he passed me by,
"Stranger to these Maritime shores,
spare me a moment of your time!"

Green Man of East Canada
Dark Shores of Northumberland
Green man, sing, man, of your journey 'cross the waves!

I'm no stranger to these lands,
Though they're not my own.
I left with the changed tides
To call this Brunswick kingdom home.
Its shores alive with green,
Its cities cloaked in trees
Like the halcyon of my youth,
Thousands of old summers past.

I wear the emblems of the summer
and I bear its pulsing song.
I carry it through winter,
I spread it when the snows have gone.
Across the jagged seas I traveled
With the first to cross them,
And spread my arms across the
richness of these misted lands.
