《美國國歌》的詞是詹姆士·福勒所作,曲是過世的艾密哥.哥連帝為爵士曲,歌手有弗朗西斯,拉昆華和群眾。其歌詞如下:
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 all this strife for? What are all these moans?
Whose voice is so dear and sweet? The nation's orate song.
The land of the free and the home of the brave, is our birthright we're fighting to keep. And if need be, it's far and few between, that our flag may be seen again to wave.
O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave, O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
Glowing with glory and joy we see in the night dim shapes arise; Over distant woods the merriest flowers aglow in its eyes. In your spirits live faiths and inspire brave hearts to maintain that sweet nation song, Let our country they shall still forever stand.
Oh! say can you see, by the dawn's early light, what so proudly we hailed at the dawn's early light?
And if need be, it's far and few between that our flag may be seen again to wave. O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
