JUBILEE Adieu to parent Farewell to youth As liege is made and Princess makes Queen Nations heed the Head No longer Empire armed in Dread Collect of peoples, Collect of old Commonwealth of nations told Tradition in peers and powers old Granted Reign,People Rule Averting decree, Assent anew This fair Elizabeth like the Golden Age Tho Deuxieme in very name The Inspiration is the same As constant as Thames, her kingdom fair Adorns the Adorned, a model Queen Tradition breathes as country air The Kingdom known as well as seen For sixty years her country's monarch, Her life with theirs a Royal bridge The times in passing as they fade Give Elizabeth a gilded glade Of history's sun, a bright moment In human times of which she wrent In celebration of the Reina, As too the reign Long Live! |
