God Save the Queen
Queen Paul Rodgers Lyrics

The song "God Save the Queen" by Queen with Paul Rodgers was released in 2008. The title of the song is also the title of the British national anthem, which speaks to the band's connection to British roots. The lyrics of the song, however, are quite different from the traditional national anthem and instead speak to a more universal message of unity and hope. The opening lines say, "Our hearts and our souls, we give to our Queen / We've walked many miles but there's no turning back." Here, the "Queen" is meant to represent a symbol of hope and inspiration that the band is rallying around.

The second verse of the song takes on a more political tone, with the lyrics "Our land is not lost, we will never surrender / Neither thrown to the wolves, nor to the vultures." Here, the band is speaking to the idea of not giving up in times of struggle or hardship, and standing firm in the face of external threats. The song then closes with the repeated chorus of "God save the Queen" once again, emphasizing the message of unity and hope for a better future.
