Listen to the Earth,
its singing to me.
Hear all things in harmony!
Waterfalls and raindrops,
birds and bees.
Sing the song of the Earth to me.
A collection of lyrics to popular Girl Guide campfire songs for your convenience.

Ranger Song
Firm be the bond that binds us fast,
Firm be the faith we owe!
We who are standing side by side,
One though a thousand leagues divide.
Hills where the lighted campfires gleam and glow.
Down in the ash the embers die,
turned to a silver grey!
Golden and blue, the evening sky,
raises a star-lit flag on high.
Now that the night relieves the guard of day.
Under the dark the daylight waits,
Over the sea withdrawn!
Now let the day bring calm or strife,
Rangering forth in love with life.
We have a tryst, a tryst to keep with dawn.
Firm be the faith we owe!
We who are standing side by side,
One though a thousand leagues divide.
Hills where the lighted campfires gleam and glow.
Down in the ash the embers die,
turned to a silver grey!
Golden and blue, the evening sky,
raises a star-lit flag on high.
Now that the night relieves the guard of day.
Under the dark the daylight waits,
Over the sea withdrawn!
Now let the day bring calm or strife,
Rangering forth in love with life.
We have a tryst, a tryst to keep with dawn.

Like an Eagle
Born in the mountains,
the wind blowing free,
given by nature the wisdom to see,
power to heal and the strength to command,
child of our native land.
Chorus:
Fly far, like the eagle,
Be strong, like the eagle,
Soar high, like the eagle,
Live long, like the eagle,
When we come together in harmony,
like the eagle,
We'll be strong and free.
Circling and heeling and timing the sky,
looking at life through a far seeing eye,
searching and seeking and finding it there,
spirit of earth and air.
CHORUS
One sky above us, and one earth below,
life all around us and things that we know,
nothing to shadow the light of the sun,
everywhere we are one.

Walk Around
Rivers that sparkle,
and rush along free,
forrests so tall and green,
dressed in their finery,
Canada fair,
none are as lucky as we.
Chorus
Ah, Walk around,
look around,
take the time to say,
how lucky I am that I live in this land,
of Canada today.
All kinds of people from far away lands,
landed in True North,
Customs and cultures we're willing to share,
as true Canadians.
CHORUS
Pioneers suffered to settle this land,
the new world was its name,
fairness and freedom they wanted for all,
let's live up to what they claim.
CHORUS
Miles of highway are ours to explore,
an ever changing view,
four different season we know and enjoy,
for the richly, weak or poor.

Land of the Silver Birch
Land of the Silver Birch,
Home of the beaver,
Where stands the mighty moose,
Wanders at will,
CHORUS
Blue lake and rocky shore,
I will return once more,
Boom didi ah da,
Boom didi ah da,
Boom didi ah da,
Boom.
My heart is sick for thee,
Here in the low lands,
I will return to you,
Hills of the north.
CHORUS
Swift as a silver fish,
Canoe of birch bark,
Thy mighty waterways,
Carry me forth.
CHORUS
Here where the blue lake lies,
I’ll set my wigwam,
Close to the water’s edge,
Silent and still.
CHORUS
