The National Anthem

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 fight,
O’er the ramparts we watch’d were
so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket’s 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?
