The night sky paints a medley
Of shimmering red, white, and blue
Announcing the birth of a nation
Whose future gleams brighter
Than all the stars above, crying
In independence, bursting with joy
For freedom from a king intolerable
Declaring a new democracy
O'er a land filled with opportunity
Marking the spirit of Fourth of July
