01:16

Oh, say, can you see, by the dawn's early light,

01:27

what so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming.

01:40

Whose broad stripes and bright stars, through the perilous fight.

01:53

O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming.

02:05

And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,

02:18

gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.

02:32

O say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave

02:48

O'er the land of the free, and the home of the brave!
