Alaska's Flag

Eight stars of gold on a field of blue,

Alaska's Flag, may it mean to you;

The blue of the sea, the evening sky,

The mountain lakes and the flow'rs nearby;

The gold of the early sourdoughs dreams,

The precious gold of the hills and streams;

The brilliant stars in the northern sky,

The "Bear," the "Dipper," and shining high,

The great North star with its steady light,

O'er land and sea a beacon bright,

Alaska's Flag to Alaskans dear,

The simple flag of a last frontier.
