Thanks- magnificent. The full lyrics here- not on Wikipedia. And used in films: "Breaker Morant'; "League of Gentlemen" and Noel Coward's Calvacade. Thanks to all posted here. Stirring stuff and we must never forget this rousing music...

I was confused a little,but found out that the song ended in King Or Queen depended who ruled at the time the song was sung. USA

Isn't it "Soldiers of the Queen" (i.e., Victoria)?

My Grand Father used to sing this, and I couldn't remember the correct name of the song. I knew it was sung by Edward Woodward in the Film "Breaker Morant". I wish i could find a copy of his version too somewhere. Many thanks for a lovely trip down memory lane. I'm sure I can hear my Grand Dad singing along too..... Cheers!!! :-D

I'm a 'yank' so I've heard this one time. At the end of 'Breaker Morant'. Sung by Edward Woodward (I assume). Very good song. Thanks.

No worries! I've been meaning to do it for a while now, but never got there.

I'm glad you've enjoyed it.
