QUOTATION: | Your flag and my flag, And how it flies to-day In your land and my land And half a world away! Rose-red and blood-red The stripes for ever 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. |
