God save the King (o God save the Queen quand lo monarc britanic es una fèmna) es l'imne nacional del Reialme Unit.
I. 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 !
II. O Lord, our God, arise,
Scatter her enemies,
And make them fall !
Confound their politics,
Frustrate their knavish tricks,
On Thee our hopes we fix,
God save us all !
III. 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 !
IV. 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 over.
V. From every latent foe,
From the assassins 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 !
VI. Lord, grant that Marshall Wade
May, by Thy mighty aid,
Victory bring.
May he sedition hush,
And like a torrent rush,
Rebellious Scots to crush.
God save the Queen !
