God bless the boys of England
Their wives, and mothers,
When duty called, they shirked not,
But  answered brave and true:
Their dear ones did not keep them back
At  King of Country's call;
sacrificed their own desires,
So cheer them one and all.

Ready, steady, see them march to fight the foe,
Singing, laughing as they go.
Bright and merry weal or woe

God guard the boys of England
Of air, and sea, and shore;
Give skill and courage to our lads,
And bring them home once more:
May England's honour be maintained.
And glorious be our peace;
May strive and sorrow be no more,
And war forever cease.

Ready, steady, see them march to fight the foe,
Singing, laughing as they go.
Bright and merry weal or woe
