Lyrics

O say, can you see, by the dawn’s ear ly light,

what so proud ly we hail’d at the twi light’s last gleam ing?

Whose broad stripes and bright stars, through the per il ous fight, o’er the ram parts we watch’d were so gal lant ly stream ing?

And the rock ets’ red glare,

the bombs burst ing in air

gave proof through the night

that our flag was still there.

O say, does that star span gled ban ner yet wave

o’er the land

of the free

and the home of the brave?
