Flora’s Queen
Music: Walter Parratt (1841–1924) · Words: John Frederick Randall Stainer
Room! Room for Flora’s Queen!
Room for Flora’s Queen!
One press of Sing plays this song on this device (4:07) and stops after the last: the piano and the words come from the score, so a key change or a slower tempo changes no sound file.
The microphone is asked for only when you press its button. What it hears is measured and scored on this device and never leaves it; nothing is kept unless you record and save the file yourself. What is kept, and where.
The words
Room! Room for Flora’s Queen!
Room for Flora’s Queen!
Room for Flora’s Queen for Flora’s Queen!
Room for Flora’s Queen! Room for Flora’s
Queen!
Room for Flora’s Queen!
Room for Flora’s Queen!
Then was I ware of one enthroned on high,
Radiant in vesture and of noble mien,
At whose fair feet did many garlands lie Of
all the flowers that best be seen;
Cowslip and daffodil,
and sweet woodbine That tokens sympathy;
Whitethorn and primrose, and brave eglantine,
eglantine That’s for simplicity;
Lilies for purity and grace;
England’s red rose, England’s red rose for
strength and dignity,
England’s red rose for strength and dignity.
Thus singing still, the fields and flowers
among They passed, a gallant, gallant train,
And this the burden of the song they sung,
This the burden of the song they sung:
Long live Victoria! Long live Victoria!
Long may she reign! Long may she reign!
And hark! afar across the sea
Long live Victoria!
Hark! hark! afar across the sea From clime to
clime How kindred voices chime,
Joining the glad refrain,
hark!
In ever swelling harmony: Long live
Victoria!
Long live Vic- toria! Long Long Long long may
she reign! Long may she reign Long may she
reign! Long may she reign! Long may she reign!
she reign! Long may she reign! Long may she
reign! Long may she reign! Long may she reign!

That tokens sympathy;
Whitethorn and primrose, and brave eglantine
That’s for simplicity; The gentle violet
for modesty;
And chiefly, chiefly there found place
England’s red rose, England’s red rose for
strength and dignity, And chiefly,

for strength and dignity.
Thus singing still, the fields and flowers and
flowers among They passed, a gallant,

In rustic roundelay, in rustic roundelay:
Then was I ware of one enthroned on high,

At whose fair feet did many garlands lie Of
