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?
The rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
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?
Sing, choirs of angels, sing in exultation,
O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
