The Star Spangled Banner
Lyrics by Francis Scott Key
Oh, 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 rockets red 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.

Twilight- sunset
O’er- over
Dawn’s early light - sunrise
Gallantly - showy, splendid, stately, bravely, chivalrous
Perilous- dangerous
Ramparts- wall or embankment around the fort; A trench is dug
around the fort that forces the enemy to drop to a lower level just as they are attacking
