Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCAADEFFGGHHIIAA JIKK| Well tell a tale it shall be brief | A |
| It is of rise of Maple Leaf | A |
| From noble Olive Branch it sprung | B |
| And its good deeds shall yet be sung | B |
| This Encampment though in its youth | C |
| Glories in friendship love and truth | C |
| Of all our lodges yet the chief | A |
| May be this youthful Maple Leaf | A |
| Built of good timber it doth launch | D |
| Well worthy of the Olive Branch | E |
| And though it only is a shoot | F |
| We hope that it will take deep root | F |
| And soon be vigorous Maple tree | G |
| In Canada so broad and free | G |
| And may its usefulness ne'er cease | H |
| Sprung from the Olive Branch of peace | H |
| But comfort brothers in distress | I |
| Widows and orphans it will bless | I |
| And console them in their grief | A |
| Protected by the Maple Leaf | A |
| Poor travellers in the wilderness | J |
| They oft do suffer great distress | I |
| But may no pilgrim get rude shock | K |
| Sojourning here in Woodstock | K |
