Coal mining town in a beautiful valley
Encircled by lofty mountain peaks
Bounded by evergreen forests
Divided by the fast flowing Bow
Cold, snowy winters and long, hot summers
Yielding a rich wildlife refuge and
Superb sports playground
A town of hardworking miners and
Housewives and energetic children
A town of honest, friendly people
All knowing one another
A town meeting the needs of all the residents
Canmore, you were my home, an earthly paradise
I will remember and love you forever
