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.

The thing that goes the farthest
Towards making life worth while,
That costs the least, and does the most,
Is just a pleasant smile.
