Ave Maris Stella
(The Acadian National Anthem)

Hail, Star of the Sea,
August Mother of God,
Always a Virgin,
Sweet Gate of Heaven.

Acadie, my homeland,
To your name, I am bound,
My life, my faith are yours,
You will guard me.

Acadie, my homeland,
My land and my challenge,
You stand firm near and far,
My heart is Acadian.

Acadie, my homeland,
Your history abides in me,
Beholden in esteem,
To the future, I confide.
