The Alaska Flag

Alaska’s Flag Song

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 flowers nearby;
The gold of the early sourdough’s 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,
Over land and sea a beacon bright.
Alaska’s flag – to Alaskans dear,
The simple flag of a last frontier.
