“The Star-Spangled Banner” is the national anthem of the United States of America, written in 1814 by Francis Scott Key. Key wrote them after witnessing the bombardment of Fort McHenry in Baltimore, Maryland, by British ships in Chesapeake Bay during the War of 1812.<\/p>\n

Lyrics to the “The Star-Spangled Banner”:<\/p>\n

Oh, say can you see by the dawn’s early light
\nWhat so proudly we hailed at the twilight’s last gleaming?
\nWhose broad stripes and bright stars thru the perilous fight,
\nO’er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?
\nAnd the rocket’s red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
\nGave proof thru the night that our flag was still there.
\nOh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
\nO’er the land of the free and the home of the brave?<\/p>\n

On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep,
\nWhere the foe’s haughty host in dread silence reposes,
\nWhat is that which the breeze, o’er the towering steep,
\nAs it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
\nNow it catches the gleam of the morning’s first beam,
\nIn full glory reflected now shines in the stream:
\n‘Tis the star-spangled banner!
\nOh long may it wave
\nO’er the land of the free and the home of the brave.<\/p>\n

And where is that band who so vauntingly swore
\nThat the havoc of war and the battle’s confusion,
\nA home and a country should leave us no more!
\nTheir blood has washed out of their foul footsteps’ pollution.
\nNo refuge could save the hireling and slave’
\nFrom the terror of flight and the gloom of the grave:
\nAnd the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
\nO’er the land of the free and the home of the brave.<\/p>\n

Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
\nBetween their loved home and the war’s desolation!
\nBlest with victory and peace, may the heav’n rescued land
\nPraise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
\nThen conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
\nAnd this be our motto:
\n“In God is our trust.”
\nAnd the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
\nO’er the land of the free and the home of the brave.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/eldirectorio.blurmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/887"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/eldirectorio.blurmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/eldirectorio.blurmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/eldirectorio.blurmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/eldirectorio.blurmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=887"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/eldirectorio.blurmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/887\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":888,"href":"http:\/\/eldirectorio.blurmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/887\/revisions\/888"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/eldirectorio.blurmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=887"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
