Lyrics English ver. (With translator) Rule, Britainia Conquer all the seas never yield to any enemy never lose to any enemy Under God's orders, Britain emerged from the deep blue sea. When they appeared in the blue ocean, This is a national landmark. The guardian angels started singing. Rule, Britainia Conquer all the seas never yield to any enemy never lose to any enemy No other country is so sacred. Other countries succumb to power. before long prostrate oneself before the tyrant enjoy prosperity and freedom in the envy of the surrounding countries Rule, Britainia Conquer all the seas never yield to any enemy never lose to any enemy with prestige, with prosperity, dodge and be feared by the enemy give foreign enemies a strong awe A storm that tears the sky will only entrench the oak tree. Rule, Britainia Conquer all the seas never yield to any enemy never lose to any enemy Rule, Britainia! Britons never, never Rule, Britainia! Britons never, never Rule, Britainia! Britons never, never Rule, Britainia! Britons never, never undomesticated by an arrogant tyrant ... the enemy's plan to attack us. ... a foolish attempt to surrender The flame of the heart, burn more. before long the name reverberates to the world Rule, Britainia Conquer all the seas never yield to any enemy never lose to any enemy the goddess of Mousa who finds freedom bless the beach give pleasure to the beach The land of happiness guided by a spirit of valor Rule, Britainia Conquer all the seas never yield to any enemy never lose to any enemy
