National Days 429. O say can you see, by the dawn's early light

P.M.

National Anthem:

John Stafford Smith (1750-1836)

Francis Scott Key, 1814;

abr.

O say can you see, by the dawn's early light,

What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming?

Whose broad stripes and bright stars, through the perilous fight,

O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming?

And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air,

Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.

O say does the Star-spangled Banner yet wave

O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

O thus be it ever, when free men shall stand

Between their loved homes and the war's desolation!

Blest with vict'ry and peace, may the heav'n-rescued land

Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation!

Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,

And this be our motto, |In God is our trust!|

And the Star-spangled Banner in triumph shall wave

O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
