My Country's Flag of Stars. By Wm. D. Porter, U. S. N. 
I've roam'd for many a lengthen'd mile Upon the stormy seas; I've seen some twenty banners float Full proudly on the breeze. That standard, too, Great Britain's pride. The boast of England's tars. Yet none could thrill my heart like thee. My Country's Flag of Stars. Yet none could thrill my heart like thee, My Country's Flag of Stars. 
Brazil's gay flag of gorgeous dyes. The banner of Old Spain, Even Gallia's bunting as it flies Is not undimm'd by stain. Their lustre has been sullied oft At home by deadly jars. But thy bright azure fold is pure. My Country's Flag of Stars. But thy bright azure fold is pure. My Country's Flag of Stars. 
in some famed foreign port I've seen The ships of half the world. To celebrate some gala day. Their bunting all unfurfd. With eager heart, I've glanced my eye Along their tap'ring spars. Until my gaze has fixed on thee My Country's Flag of Stars. Until my gaze has fixed on thee My Country's Flag of Stars. 
And as thy stripes and star-speck'd field Broke on my eager sight. My heart beat strong, my bosom thrilled With unalloyed delight. I hailed thee as the cynosure Of true Columbian tars: The banner of the brave and free. My Country's Flag of Stars. The banner of the brave and free. My Country's Flag of Stars. 
Oh, Where's the heart, possessing but One spark of freedom's zeal. That does not. gazing on thy folds, A patriot's spirit feel. What veteran, too, as he looks down Upon his dear bought stars. That does not hail thee with delight. My Country's Flag of Stars. That does not hall thee with delight, My Country's Flag of Stars.
