Текст песни The Pride of Nova Scotia (The Bluenose) - Martin W. Jones




It was March 26,1921
At the Smith and Rhuland shipyard
When she slipped into the harbour
To the roar of the crowd
Designed by Dartmouth's William Roué
To race to the Grand Banks
It was everyone's hope and dream
That her sails could beat the Yanks
She was the pride of Nova Scotia
The Bluenose was her name
Fishing from the port of Lunenburg
It was racing that gave her fame
She was the pride of Nova Scotia
The Bluenose was her name
Fishing from the port of Lunenburg
It was racing that gave her fame
Her sailors, they stood proud and tall
They knew their time would come
With Captain Angus Walters at the helm
Their boat could beat any one
She would appear on a postage stamp
And even on Canada's dime
But all good stories must have an ending
And hers would come in time
She was the pride of Nova Scotia
The Bluenose was her name
Fishing from the port of Lunenburg
It was racing that gave her fame
She was the pride of Nova Scotia
The Bluenose was her name
Fishing from the port of Lunenburg
It was racing that gave her fame
She won her last international trophy
In 1938
Before too long
She'd be stripped of her mast
To the West Indies carrying freight
In 1946 her end would come
Sinking on a Haitian reef
No longer Queen of the North Atlantic
Winning every race
She was the pride of Nova Scotia
The Bluenose was her name
Fishing from the port of Lunenburg
It was racing
That gave her great fame
