O how beautiful is Our Lady Queen! Queen of our hearts and hopes, to her we pray, Sweet Empress over forest, down, and dene , And happy Sunrise over the pilgrim’s way
O let us crown Our Queen with leaf and flower Gathered this morning in the dawnlit dew For we in this island are Her true dower Pledging our faith with thorn and rose and yew
She gives us Her feast day, cool and quiet and green - O how beautiful is Our Lady Queen!
