genetikk – the star-spangled banner lyrics

h, 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 rocket’s re d glare, the bombs bursting in air
gave proof through the night that our flag was still there:
oh, say! does that star-spangled banner yet wave
o’er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

on the sh-r-, dimly seen through the mists of the deep
where 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 fully glory reflected now shines in the stream:
’tis the star-spangled banner! oh, long may it wave
o’er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

and where is that band who so vuntingly swore
that the havoc of war and the battle’s confusion
a home and a country should leave us no more?
their blood has washed out their foul footsteps’ pollution!
no refuge could save the hireling and slave
from the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave:
and the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
o’er the land of the free and the home of the brave

oh, thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
between their loved home and the war’s desolation!
bless with victory and peace, may the heav’rescued land
praise the power that hath made and preserved 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 wave
o’er the land of the free and the home of the brave
