Lyrics US Anthem - The Star-Spangled Banner

Oh, 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 rockets` red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
O say, does that Star-Spangled Banner yet wave
O`er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep,
Where the foe`s haughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o`er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, now conceals, now discloses?

Now it catches the gleam of the morning`s first beam,
In full glory reflected now shines on the stream:
`Tis the Star-Spangled Banner! O long may it wave
O`er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved homes and the war`s desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heaven-rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.

Then conquer we must, for our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: «In God is our trust».
And the Star-Spangled Banner forever shall wave
O`er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
