A grand speech! The world needs this magnitude of eloquence and profound speech that resonates humility and humanity to each and all. A speech that hypnotizes us all, the words he utters, we all can sense the purity, loyalty, gratitude and union. Well done.
I was very impressed. I thought it was a great speech. "May flights of angels sing thee to thy rest". Beautiful. ❤

In full isn't it something like 'A noble heart is cracked, good night sweet prince, may flights of angels...' Sure it was the cracked heart that brought it to his mind. Vivat Rex.
As an American, I don't really understand the intricacies of British royalty, but with all due respect, God save the king. May he live long and make a positive impact on our chaotic society the world over.
An amazing heartfelt speech who truly loves his family. Long live the king. God save the king

Your HAIRS? You're not British, you speak broken English
I'm not a member of the monarchical Royal family , but I have enough empathy to show a bit of respect for a family that have lost their mother , great grand mother and grandmother.
Great speech. You are your mother's son and she will be proud. May you reign prosperous King Charles III
What a wonderful poignant and heartfelt speech in a tribute to his beloved mother King Charles had spoken for queen Elizabeth ii. I am sure that everyone who heard his speech listened to every single word. It was full of compassion and love even thinking of the Sussexes at this very sad time. As it's the end of an era.A new one has just begun R.IP your majesty Queen Elizabeth ii God save the king.
Very beautiful speech, she would have been proud.
Congratulations on your new Monarch! What a farsighted, meaningful and touching speech! Greetings from Germany

From America I believe that for the UK, King Charles III formerly Prince Charles will be a great King, he has been preparing for a very long time, no other member of the royal family is better prepared than King Charles III. Best wishes to him and may his late Mother the legendary and iconic Queen Elizabeth R.I.P. 🙏🙏

What a wonderful first speech from King Charles iii dedicated to his loving Mother & Queen. I cried when he spoke about Prince William especially when he pronounced William & Kate The Prince & Princess of Wales. I hope I live long enough to see them become King & Queen Consort. I also shed a tear when he spoke with such love about Camilla The Queen Consort. They really are a beautiful loving family. Long Live The King.
Even though i am no one ..i feel very sad ,loss of a good person .beautiful women mother grand mother ,beautifull queen .

It was unexpected even at her age. She will never be forgotten not only because she was queen but because she was the best monarch i can think of. A legendary reign we all lived to see. And honestly i feel like charles will be a good king. He is mature and not a child anymore. I trust him and i hope he does a good job. God save the King. Feels weird to say that when my granparents were born the queen ruled the Empire. Now she doesnt. The first time i hear the new old anthem is going to feel so strange and unnatural.
Truly remarkable and profound words my liege. I salute you, one Monarch to another.

HM Queen 🤴 Elizabeth,God bless you .🙏🙏🙏 Millions and millions of jobs in the world today because of British and His Majesty Queen. Many millions of families are living because of their rule , system, government,and job opportunities 🙏🙏🙏 India or depressed or oppressed people of the world will remember you always. In 1891, the gymvvvy Chingleput collector J. H. A. Tremenheere submitted his study on socio-economic condition of Dalits in Tamil Nadu to the British administration.[2]( King George , England,) Based on his recommendation Depressed Classes Land Act was passed on September 30 under Government Order No 1010/10-A (revenue) 1892. And 12 lakh acres were assigned to Dalits across Tamil Nadu.{ On the request of missionaries,) In TAMIL NADU, Oppressed people were asked to tie a pot around their neck when they entered the village or city or passed a high caste home . Only a Brahmin can have education. But now our chief minister Mr. STALIN gave opportunities to all caste to become priests . He himself is from a most backwards ,his relationships are doing barber shops ,, A high caste ( they call themselves so ) here still uses a BARBERS caste to undershave their bride grooms as a part of their marriage ritual using this caste 😁😁😁,, Slavery ,, Slavery to even a caste of Hon Chief MINISTER of Tamil Nadu.🙏🙏🙏( But originally they are Pipers but we know their relationship are running Barber shops,,my dad sent us me and my brother to learn cutting and shaving so that we will have a job in future if education doesn't pay us a job ,,)( my dad said only after or during this period God REVEALED himself to my dad ,,) Pray for our safety . I filed a case in our high court in 2007 . Noon meal scheme or lot of lakes or dams or slavery of women devadasi ,, democracy,police ,jobs , railways,,across the world are by BRITISH rule God bless uk God bless UK people.🙏👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍👍🙏🙏
I am an American and I admit, during Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth's life, I had some reservations about how Charles would do when he became King. If this First Speech as King is any indicator, Great Britain is in good hands! God Bless The King!
