美国国歌：《星光灿烂的旗帜》（The Star-Spangled Banner曾译《星条旗之歌》）。该曲由美国律师弗朗西斯·斯科特·基(Francis Scott Key)作词，英国作曲家约翰·斯塔福裂清德·史密斯（John Stafford Smith）作曲派败。
美国国歌为《星光灿烂的旗帜》（The Star-Spangled Banner），但由于种种原因在中国现在经常被译作“星条旗永不落”。虽然这种译法使该曲与美国国家进行曲《星条旗永不落》（The Star and Stripes Forever）重名，并且与英文原意不符，但该译法的使用依然相当广泛。
美国国歌共包括四节，绝大多数场合只唱第一节。
Oh, say can you see by the dawn's early light,
What 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 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?
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 wave,
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
When our land is illuminated with liberty’s smile,
If a foe from within strikes a blow at her glory,
Down, down with the traitor that tries to defile
The flag of the stars, and the page of her story!
By the millions unchained,
Who their birthright have gained
We will keep her bright blazon forever unstained;
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave,
While the land of the free is the home of the brave.[1] 肆羡前
And where is that band who so vauntingly swore?
That 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 wave,
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand,
Between their loved home and the war's desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land;
Praise 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 wave,
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
歌词翻译：
啊！在晨曦初现时，你可看见
是什么让我们如此骄傲？
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
在黑暗过后依然耸立！
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？
透过稠密的雾，隐约望见对岸，顽敌正在酣睡，四周沉寂夜阑珊。
微风断断续续，吹过峻崖之巅，你说那是什么，风中半隐又半现？
现在它的身上，映着朝霞烂漫，凌空照在水面，霎时红光一片。
这是星条旗！但愿它永远飘扬，在这自由国家，勇士的家乡。
都到哪里去了，信誓旦旦的人？他们向往的是能在战争中幸存。
家乡和祖国，不要抛弃他们，他们自己用血，洗清肮脏的脚印。
这些奴才、佣兵，没有地方藏身，逃脱不了失败和死亡的命运。
但是星条旗却将要永远飘扬，在这自由国家，勇士的家乡。
玉碎还是瓦全，摆在我们面前，自由人将奋起保卫国旗长招展！
祖国自有天相，胜利和平在望；建国家，保家乡，感谢上帝的力量。
我们一定得胜，正义属于我方，“我们信赖上帝。”此语永矢不忘。
你看星条旗将永远高高飘扬，在这自由国家，勇士的家乡。
