From a record-breaking flotilla on the Thames to a star-studded concert and a dramatic flypast over Buckingham Palace, 從泰晤士河上破紀錄的船隊到巨星雲集的音樂會和白金漢宮上方壯觀的空中機隊，
few of us are likely to witness another diamond jubilee in our lifetimes. 我們幾乎沒有人可能在有生之年再次親眼見到鑽禧週年慶祝了。
But the memories from the past four days will stay with us forever. Nick Glass takes a look back at the day's sights and sounds. 但過去這四天的回憶將永遠與我們同在。尼克．葛拉斯要回顧當天的所見所聞。
Young, pure voices filling St. Paul's Cathedral in a service of thanksgiving. 年輕、純淨的聲音充滿了聖保羅大教堂裡的感恩禮拜。
A new choir, a Diamond Choir, and a new song composed for the occasion. 新組成的唱詩班，鑽石唱詩班，和為了這場盛事譜寫的新曲。
The queen and her firstborn were still, just lost in thought, just listening. 女王和她的長子沉著自持，若有所思地聆聽著。
The choir was drawn from all over Britain 11-, 12- and 13-year-olds. 這個唱詩班是由全英各地十一、十二和十三歲的少年中選出。
The queen herself was just 11 when she first knew that she would succeed her father to the throne. 女王剛知道她將繼承父親王位時，自己才十一歲。
With Prince Philip under observation in hospital, we worried a little for her this morning. 菲利普親王還在醫院中觀察，這個上午讓人有點為女王擔心。
For a moment in the great cathedral, she looked so sad. 在這座宏偉的大教堂中，有一刻她看起來是那麼悲傷。
But then it was just for a moment. We glimpsed her fleetingly as she was ferried from cathedral to reception and to lunch at Westminster. 不過這只有一會兒。我們在她從大教堂搭船移駕至西敏寺的歡迎會和午宴時，匆匆地瞥見她的身影。
And at the end of that, she was serenaded out to a favorite tune from Oklahoma, "People Will Say We're in Love." 在最後，她接受獻唱《奧克拉荷馬》中一首好聽的樂曲〈人說我們相戀〉。
She and Prince Philip saw the musical in London a few months before they were married almost 65 years ago. 她和菲利普親王在將近六十五年前成婚的前幾個月，在倫敦看過這齣音樂劇。
The queen shared her open carriage back to Buckingham Palace with Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall. The crowds along Whitehall were at least 12 deep. 女王和查爾斯王子與康沃爾公爵夫人共乘她的無頂馬車回白金漢宮。沿著白廳街圍觀的人牆至少有十二排。
We counted them. And as far as we could tell there were even more people along The Mall. 我們數過了。在我們看來，林蔭路上的人還更多。
Then that great British tradition, umbrellas up and swarming down The Mall to the palace. 接著是偉大的英國傳統，撐起傘沿著林蔭路湧向皇宮。
As the queen came out onto the balcony, she exclaimed quietly to herself, "Oh my goodness, how extraordinary." 當女王走出來登上陽台時，她輕聲對自己驚呼：「我的天，真是壯觀啊。」
As well she might, looking out onto the teeming swell of people and Union Flags. 可想而知，她正眺望著群集蜂擁的人群和英國國旗海。
Above us, we could just about make out the silhouette of the Dakota and the Lancaster bomber with its escort of Spitfires 在我們上方，我們隱約可以看到達科塔戰機和蘭開斯特戰機在噴火戰機護衛下的輪廓，
and a solitary Hurricane followed by a more visible salute from the Red Arrows. 然後一架颶風戰機單獨飛過，接著的紅箭戰機致敬看得比較清楚。
The queen stayed out on the balcony for 12 minutes. 女王在陽台外面待了十二分鐘。
The latest word on Prince Philip is that he is in good spirits and improving. 關於菲利浦親王的最新消息指出，他的心情愉快且狀況改善中。
The queen will now reflect back on a long weekend of celebration. 女王如今將有個漫長週末的慶典可以回顧了。
