ICH DIEN

 

God bless the
Prince of Wales

Among our ancient mountains,
And from our lovely vales
Oh, let the pray'r re-echo
God bless the Prince of Wales.
With heart and voice awaken
Those minstrel strains of yore,
Till Britain's name and glory
Resound from shore to shore.

 
Chorus.-
Among our ancient mountains,
And from our lovely vales,
Oh, let the pray'r re-echo
God bless the Prince of Wales.

 
Should hostile bands or danger
E'er threaten our fair isle,
May God's strong arm protect us
May heav'n still on us smile;
Above the Throne of England
May fortune's star long shine,
And round its sacred bulwarks
The olive branches twine.
