Confound their politics, Frustrate their knavish tricks: On him our hearts we fix,
 * O save us all.

Thy choicest gifts in store On him be pleas’d to pour;
 * Long may he reign!

May he defend our laws, And ever give us cause To sing with heart and voice,
 * God save the king!

O grant him long to see Friendship and unity
 * Always increase!

May he his sceptre sway, All loyal souls obey, Join heart and voice, huzz',
 * God save the king!
