In the heart of the prairies, where the rivers flow,
There's a spirit that rises, like the wind's gentle blow.
With a history rich, and a culture so bold,
The Métis stand tall, their story told.
Oh, the strength of the Métis, it runs deep,
From the plains to the forests, it's theirs to keep.
With courage and pride, they forge their own way,
The Métis spirit, it shines bright every day.
Through struggles and hardships, they've always stood strong,
Facing adversity, they've proven they belong.
With fiddles and jigs, and the Red River carts,
The Métis celebrate, with music in their hearts.
