O say can you see, by the dawn's early
light,What so proudly we hail'd at the
twilight's last gleaming,Whose broad stripes and
bright stars through the perilous fightO'er the
ramparts we watch'd were so gallantly
streaming?And the rocket's red glare, the bomb
bursting in air,Gave proof through the night
that our flag was still there,O say does that
star-spangled banner yet waveO'er the land of
the free and the home of the brave?On the shore
dimly seen through the mists of the deepWhere
the foe's haughty host in dread silence
reposes,What is that which the breeze, o'er the
towering steep,As it fitfully blows, half
conceals, half discloses?Now it catches the
gleam of the morning's first beam,In full glory
reflected now shines in the stream,'Tis the
star-spangled banner - O long may it waveO'er
the land of the free and the home of the brave!

• And where is that band who so vauntingly
  swore,That the havoc of war and the battle's
  confusionA home and a Country should leave us no
  more?Their blood has wash'd out their foul
  footstep's pollution.No refuge could save the
  hireling and slaveFrom the terror of flight or
  the gloom of the grave,And the star-spangled
  banner in triumph doth waveO'er the land of the
  free and the home of the brave.O thus be it
  ever when freemen shall standBetween their lov'd
  home and the war's desolation!Blest with vict'ry
  and peace may the heav'n rescued landPraise the
  power that hath made and preserv'd 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 waveO'er the land of the free and the home
  of the brave.
  - Francis Scott Key
