In the Kingdom of Bhutan adorned with cypress trees, the Protector who reigns over the realm of spiritual and secular traditions, he is the King of Bhutan, the precious sovereign. May His being remain unchanging, and the Kingdom prosper, may the teachings of the Enlightened One flourish, may the sun of peace and happiness shine over all people.
