    Your flag and my flag,
    And how it flies today
    In your land and my land
    And half a world away!
    Rose-red and blood-red
    The stripes forever gleam;
    Snow-white and soul-white--
    The good forefathers' dream;
    Sky-blue and true-blue, with stars to gleam aright--
    The gloried guidon of the day, a shelter through the night.

When Freedom from her mountain height
Unfurled her standard to the air,
She tore the azure robe of night,
And set the stars of glory there.

Fling out, fling out, with cheer and shout,
To all the winds of Our Country's Banner!
Be every bar, and every star,
Displayed in full and glorious manner!
Blow, zephyrs, blow, keep the dear ensign flying!
Blow, zephyrs, sweetly mournful, sighing, sighing, sighing!

Tossing the flags of the Nations to flame.

United States, your banner wears
Two emblems--one of fame;
Alas! the other that it bears
Reminds us of your shame.
Your banner's constellation types
White freedom with its stars,
But what's the meaning of the stripes?
They mean your negroes' scars.
