Story behind the song
Fancis Scott Key wrote this song while watching the British Royal Navy attack Fort McHenry in 1812. John Stafford Smith wrote the music to the poem. It was adopted as the National Anthem of the United States of America in 1931.
Lyrics
Oh say can you see, by the dawns early light, what so proudly we hailed at the twighlight's last gleaming , whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight, o'er the ramparts we watched, were so galantly streaming? And the rocket's 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?
