But the Kings of many lands,
And the Emperors from afar,
Mourners are.
Solemn silence for the Queen,

Toll the bells, let music play
To the pulse of muffled drums.
See! The white Crowned Coffin comes,
And the cannon say their say.
Tears in silence for our Queen
On her way.
On her path without returning,
Living silence for our Queen.
Through our bitter tears and burning,
Let us pray,
Ave Regina Gloria!
Victoria! Victoria!
Loved for aye!
