１．
おお 見ゆるや
朝まだき光の中に、
過ぐる黄昏時 我等
いとも誇らかに仰ぎしものを。
熾しき戦さ中 変はらず、
護る城砦の上
げに雄々しく閃きしは
誰が人の星条章なるぞ。
砲火の紅も
空に轟く爆音も
夜を徹して我が旗の
尚もかしこにあるの証なり。 |
1.
O 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 rocket's red glare,
The bombs bursting in air
Gave proof thro' the night
That our flag was still there. |
おお 告げよ、
星条旗は今もひらめくや、
自由人の国、
勇者の故郷に。 |
O say, does that star-spangled
Banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free
And the home of the brave. |
２．
彼の岸辺、狭霧の奥処に
ほのかに見ゆるもの。
驕れる敵勢の
懼然 黙止せるところ、
聳ゆる懸崖の彼方、
吹く戦風の偶さかに
隠れ将た現はるは何なるぞ。
そは 今 曙光受け
栄光に照り満ちつ
朝風の中 翩翻と
耀き放つものなり。 |
2.
On the shore dimly seen
Thro' the mist 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. |
星条旗ぞ是なり。
おお 常盤に翻れ、
自由人の国、
勇者の故郷に。 |
Tis the star-spangled
banner
O long may it wave
O'er the land of the free
And the home of the brave. |
３．
今やいづこならん、
戦災と混迷に
我ら還るべき
家も里も悉く
潰え去らんと
驕り誓へる讐軍（あだいくさ）。
羶血に影もなし、
かの醜足の跡。
もはや金に眩める敵兵の
遁走の恐怖と
暗澹たる戦没より
逃れ得る地は一つもなし。 |
3.
And where is the band
Who so vauntingly swore,
'Mid the havoc of war
And the battles confusion,
A home and a country
They'd leave us no more?
Their blood has wash'd out
Their foul footstep's pollution.
No refuge could save
The hireling and slave
From the terror of flight
Or the gloom of the grave; |
星条旗は
大捷に寔とひらめく、
自由人の国、
勇者の故郷に。 |
And the star-spangled
banner
In triumph doth wave
O'er the land of the free
And the home of the brave. |
４．
おお 自由なる人民の
愛する家郷と
戦争の荒野に起つ時は、
永久に斯くあれかし。
勝利と平和に恵まれたる、
天佑ある大地よ、
我が国を造り護れる
神のみ力を誉め讃へよ！
この原理の正しき時、
我等は断じて勝利せん。
そして我等が胸には
「神を信ず」の言葉あれ！ |
4.
O thus be it ever,
When free men shall stand
Between their loved homes
And the war's desolation;
Blest with vict'ry 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!" |
星条旗は
大捷に閃かなん、
自由人の国、
勇者の故郷に。 |
And the star-spangled
banner
In triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free
And the home of the brave. |
