Plainly: "Rule thou over us, thou and thy son and thy son's son" means "Let you be our ruler, and let your son and your grandson be rulers after you."
Simple points:
- "Thou" = "you" (old/archaic English).
- "Thy son and thy son's son" = your son and your grandson.
- So it's asking for a ruler whose power is passed down through his family (a hereditary succession).
