Majesty Queen Elizabeth Heavy Lies the Crown

Hear Yee , Hear Yee Elizabeth "The' Queen Here she lie's dead in state entombed in saintly grace Her smile as is her likeness of she no more Send her forth victorious in resplendent elegance riding sidesaddle upon an equine train bitting on the bridle To spirit her soul away duties levies paid in full to all bar none subject come Rest in peace , rest full well , rest in everlasting ease complete Blow the trumpets way up on high let the bugle's cry and pipes a pipes a play Unfurl the pageantry and banners of all ages fly the royal standard at half mast all around the 4 corners of her Commonwealth And pray let her know she is in no small part sorely already missed And sadly I fear will be for many a long year to come So God speed your Majesty on this your final cavalcade From reign to grave As surely he awaits Most patiently an audience with thee Your Queen ordained keeper , leader, defender of the faith She who's head deemed worthy to be placed underneath to bear the heaviest burden of the Regal Crown
