This is the music and lyrics to The flag of Newfoundland, a song written by Martin Howley, which, "eulogized the banner as representing in its colours the island's English, Irish and Scottish ancestors. [Howley] clearly intended to overcome any perception of the PWG [Pink, White, and Green] as a Catholic flag by turning it into a symbol representing all Newfoundlanders. (Lambert, Carolyn. "The Pink, White and Green." Newfoundland and Labrador Heritage. Memorial University of Newfoundland, 2011. Web. 27 Jan 2012.) First line: The pink rose of England shows. -- Caption title.
