The Star Spangled Banner "The Star Spangled Banner"于1814年由Francis Scott Key作曲，Woodrow Wilson总统于1916年下令于军中场合演奏，于1931年由国会立法通过成为国歌。

　　国歌共包括四节，绝大多数场合只唱第一节。

　　Oh, say can you see by the dawn's early lightWhat so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming?Whose broad stripes and bright stars thru the perilous fight,O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air,Gave proof thru the night that our flag was still there.Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet waveO'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 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 in the stream:'Tis the star-spangled banner! Oh long may it waveO'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

　　Andswheresis that band who so vauntingly sworeThat the havoc of war and the battle's confusion,A home and a country should leave us no more!Their blood has washed out of of their foul footsteps' pollution.No refuge could save the hireling and slave'From the terror of flight and the gloom of the grave:And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth waveO'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

　　Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall standBetween their loved home and the war's desolation!Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued landPraise 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 waveO'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

　　歌词大意

　　啊！在晨曦初现时，你可看见

　　是甚么让我们如此骄傲？

　　在黎明的最后一道曙光中欢呼，

　　是谁的旗帜在激战中始终高扬！

　　烈火熊熊，炮声隆隆，

　　我们看到要塞上那面英勇的旗帜

　　在黑夜过后依然耸立！

　　啊！你说那星条旗是否会静止，

　　在自由的土地上飘舞，

　　在勇者的家园上飞扬？
