Let the flag wave! Aye, let it wave on high,
讓國旗飄揚吧!是的,高高飄揚,
Its red and white and blue against the sky!
紅、白、藍映襯著天空!
From crest and casement, broad and bright and brave,
從頂飾到鉸鏈,寬闊、明亮、勇敢,
Let the flag wave!

Let the flag wave! Aye, let it wave above

The hills and valleys of the land we love.

And o’er the sea, to no mad tyrant slave.

Let the flag wave! Aye, let its glory shine!

Its stars unsullied as the stars of night;

Its stripes unblemished; only this we crave—
