Himno nacional de Canadá - Anthem of Canada (EN/ES letra)

O Canada (Inglés/Español) - (English/Spanish lyrics) --- La música fue compuesta por Calixa Lavallée, y el texto original en francés fue escrito por Sir Adolphe-Basile Routhier como canción patriótica francocanadiense para la Société Saint-Jean-Baptiste. Los poemas en ambas lenguas tienen más estrofas, pero solamente la primera de cada idioma es reconocida legalmente como himno nacional. Puesto que Canadá es un país oficialmente bilingüe, ambas versiones tienen carácter igualmente oficial. De hecho el Gobierno de Canadá utiliza en todos los actos oficiales la versión bilingüe aunque no esté oficializada. --- The song was originally commissioned by Lieutenant Governor of Quebec Théodore Robitaille for the 1880 Saint-Jean-Baptiste Day ceremony; Calixa Lavallée composed the music, after which, words were written by the poet and judge Sir Adolphe-Basile Routhier. The lyrics were originally in French; an English version was created in 1906. Robert Stanley Weir wrote in 1908 another English version, which is the official and most popular version, one that is not a literal translation of the French. Weir's lyrics have been revised twice, taking their present form in 1980, but the French lyrics remain unaltered. "O Canada" had served as a de facto national anthem since 1939, officially becoming Canada's national anthem in 1980 when the Act of Parliament making it so received royal assent and became effective on July 1 as part of that year's Dominion Day celebrations. --- Subscribe!
