| | ....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.

| | Oh thus be it ever when free men shall stand
Between their lov'd homes? and the war's desperation.
Bles't with victory and peace, may the Heav'n rescued land
Praise the Pow'r that hath made and preserv'd us a nation.
Then conquer we must, for our cause it is just,
and this be our motto, "In God is our Trust."
And the Star-spangl'd banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
At least, that's as much as I can remember for learning it in the NYC public schools about 40 years ago. I'd love to editorialize a bit about the political nature of the sentiments, but this is neither the time nor the place. |

| | 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, thro' the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watch'd, were so gallantly streaming?
And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof thro' 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 thro' 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 full glory reflected, now shines on the stream:
'Tis the star-spangled banner: O, long may it wave
O'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 confusion,
A home and a country should leave us no more?
Their blood has wash'd 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.
O thus be it ever when free-men shall stand
Between their lov'd home and the war's desolation;
Blest with vict'ry and peace, may the heav'n-rescued land
Praise the Pow'r 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 wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

| | For my friends north(east) of the border...
O Canada! Terre de nos aïeux,
Ton front est ceint de fleurons glorieux!
Car ton bras sait porter l'épée,
Il sait porter la croix!
Ton histoire est une épopée,
Des plus brillants exploits.
Et ta valeur, de foi trempée,
Protégera nos foyers et nos droits.
Protégera nos foyers et nos droits.

| | ...and the english version is 0 Canada!
Our home and native land!
True patriot love
in all thy sons command.
With glowing hearts
we see thee rise,
The True North
strong and free!
From far and wide,
0 Canada,
We stand on guard
for thee.
God keep our land
glorious and free!
0 Canada,
we stand on guard for thee,
0 Canada,
we stand on guard for thee.
