I walked by the west canadian shore
Where I was born beneath the sky
Staggered by and by, I cried
Realizing I was once blind

I felt the wind blow in from the sea
And it was blowing in on me
Alone I walked while the mountains talked
Telling me I must be free

I have been relieved
My waters shall run free
Take me down to the sea
When I die
By the shores
Of my fathers
I will lie

Felt the sun break through from the sky
And I could hear the seagulls cry
Cry for me, while the wind and the sea
In me, I must be free

I have been relieved
My waters shall run free
Take me down to the sea
When I die
By the shores
Of my father
I will lie
