Dear valued visitor...

So glad to see you here;

The warmest of warm welcomes

In this very special year -

 

When we celebrate a diamond Queen

Upon an ancient throne,

While Olympic jewels strive to shine

With royalty of their own.

 

Our land is proudly on parade,

Its capital playing host,

With traditions that will never fade

(Though it's not our way to boast).

 

The best of now and what will be

Will meet beneath the Crown;

The World is coming here to see

The Show in London town.

 

So step this way for Olympic dreams

And a country rich in its Queen;

We humbly hope this year gleams

With the best that's ever been.

 

And when at last you must depart,

We hope you'll keep us in your heart.
