Bermudian anthem lyrics (Official English)
Hail To Bermuda
Hail to Bermuda
My island in the sun
Sing out in glory
To the nation we’ve become
We’ve grown from heart to heart
And strength to strength
This privilege is mine
To sing long live Bermuda
Because this island’s mine
 
Hail to Bermuda
My homeland dear to me
This is my own land
Built on strength and unity
We’ve grown from heart to heart
And strength to strength
For loyalty is prime
And sing long live Bermuda
Because this island’s mine!
 
 
God Save The Queen
God Save the Queen
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
 
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
 
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
 
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
 
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
