Candle In The Wind (Goodbye England's Rose version)

By Elton John

Goodbye England's rose;

may you ever grow in our hearts.

You were the grace that placed itself

where lives were torn apart.

You called out to our country,

and you whispered to those in pain.

Now you belong to heaven,

and the stars spell out your name.

Now you belong to heaven,

and the stars spell out your name.

p>

And it seems to me you lived your life

like a candle in the wind:

never fading with the sunset

when the rain set in.

And your footsteps will always fall here,

along England's greenest hills;

your candle's burned out long before

your legend ever will.

Loveliness we've lost;

these empty days without your smile.

This torch we'll always carry

for our nation's golden child.

And even though we try,

the truth brings us to tears;

When I relive this photo At that time, I remembered the grand live broadcast of the wedding of Princess Diana and Prince of Wales Charles Philip Arthur George on July 29, 1981, as if it was yesterday. June 17 this year is the official 80th birthday of Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom. The Royal Guards in costumes were in place, and the British Crown Prince Charles, Princes William and Harry, Prince Andrew, Prince Edward and Princess Anne arrived at St. Paul's Cathedral. Queen Elizabeth arrived from Windsor Palace accompanied by her husband Prince Philip. The Queen was wearing a light-colored suit that day. She seemed in a happy mood and was smiling all the time. The Queen gave a light-hearted toast: "As people get older, birthdays seem to come faster. Therefore, it is not so much about hosting a large-scale event." The reason for celebration is rather a private moment to receive blessings from relatives and friends. As Groucho Marx (British comedian) said, everyone grows old as long as you live long enough.

Seeing this happy family without Princess Diana, I couldn’t help but feel sad in my heart. Since ancient times, beauties have always been ill-fated, and I lamented the fate of people. This song Candle in the wind Candle in the Wind , the author uses candlelight to compare Princess Diana, and the candlelight becomes a candlelight that never goes out in the wind and rain; uses England's Rose to represent Princess Diana, because rose is the national flower of the United Kingdom, and Princess Diana is indeed in the hearts of the British people. She is a national treasure, so rose is the most appropriate word to describe her here; the wings of your compassion compare Diana to a kind and compassionate angel, which is unforgettable. It can be seen that Diana is in the hearts of the British people. Spiritual leadership status. I only use this song to commemorate Princess Diana. You in heaven will show a kind smile when you see your two outstanding sons.

all our words cannot express

the joy you brought us through the years.

Goodbye England's rose,

from a country lost without your soul,

who'll miss the wings of your compassion

more than you'll ever know.'
