Inno Nazionale "God Save the Queen"

God save our gracious Queen,
Long live our noble Queen,
God save the Queen !
Send her victorious,
Happy and glorious,
Long to reign over us,
God save the Queen !

O lord God arise,
Scatter our enemies,
And make them fall !
Confound their knavish tricks,
Confuse their politics,
On you our hopes we fix,
God save the Queen !

Not in this land alone,
But be God's mercies known,
From shore to shore !
Lord make the nations see,
That men should brothers be,
And form one family,
The wide world ov'er

From every latent foe,
From the assasins blow,
God save the Queen !
O'er her thine arm extend,
For Britain's sake defend,
Our mother, prince, and friend,
God save the Queen !

Thy choicest gifts in store,
On her be pleased to pour,
Long may she reign !
May she defend our laws,
And ever give us cause,
To sing with heart and voice,
God save the Queen !
