Rest in peace your majesty
Queen Elizabeth II.
Your life was given to the people.
Rest now with family and husband
as we mourn your death.
King Charles the Third
takes your place
giving Britain a face
for all to look forward to
a new era has begun
a time of great change
a time of grief
a time of history taking
place.

In honor of your greatness,
you will never be forgotten
Queen Elizabeth II.

Now, we say

‘God save the King’.

King Charles III
now proclaimed
our new King.
