Onow, for ever/ Farewell the tranquil mind! farewell content!/ Farewell the plumed troops and the big wars/
That makes ambition virtue!/ O farewell!/ Farewell the neighing steed and the shrill trump,/
The spirit-stirring drum, th' ear-piercing fife ,/ The royal banner, and all quality,/
Pride, pomp, and circumstance of glorious war!
This arrangement has been made to make it more accessible to the average orchestra; the instruments marked with an asterisk in the orchestration list above may be omitted if necessary.
