History
In 1855 there were two captains, the first captain Thomas George Knox and Captain Impey arrived in Rattanakosin. Both brought the song "God Save The Queen", which is a song in honour of Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom to Siam. New lyrics were written in English in honour of the reign of King Rama V, which has shown significant evidence in the Siam Recorder.
Later, Phraya Srisunthonwohan (Noi Āchāryānkura) Re-composed the lyrics in Siam dialect to the poetics of the poem Quite by being named the new song. "Chom Rat Chong Charoen "
