※ 引述《BloodyJoker (仁者无智,智者不仁)》之铭言:
这个﹐第二次英美战争中还诞生了这样一首诗﹕
oh, say, can you see, by the dawn's early light,
what so proudly we hail'd at the twilight's last gleaming?
whose broad stripes and bright stars, thro' the perilous fight,
o'er the ramparts we watch'd, were so gallantly streaming?
and the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
gave proof thro' the night that our flag was still there.
o 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 thro' 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 on the stream:
't is the star spangled banner: o, long may it wave
o'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
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 wash'd out their foul footsteps' pollution.
no refuge could save the hireling and slave
from the terror of flight or 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.
o, thus be it ever when freemen shall stand,
between their lov'd homes and the war's desolation;
blest with vict'ry and peace, may the heav'n-rescued land
praise the pow'r that hath made and preserv'd us as a nation!
then conquer we must, when our cause 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!
此诗名曰《星条旗永不落》﹐谱曲後变成美国国歌~~
所以这场战争是不会被美国人遗忘的﹐中国人不关注而已。
