Happy Birthday Ma'am
Elizabeth, Alexandra,Mary
Lilibet, Your Majesty, our Queen
You were born ma'am to a hard task:
To be Sovereign o'er our land
Thrust as a young mother into office
At the untimely death of your dad

You looked vulnerable, yet regal,
At the pomp of your coronation
You carried yourself with dignity and honour
We admired your tenacity and selflessness
Your attention to detail, adherence to duty
Ma'am, you have served us well

Your serene smile has heartened us
Through much trial and tribulation
You never shirked form serving u
Even during your "Annus Horribilis"

We celebrate with you now Ma'am
On this your ninetieth birthday
And wish you many, many more
Long may you reign over us.

Ann Sutcliffe
