Cardozo School of Law Yeshiva University TWENTY-SEVENTH ANNUAL COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES TU ES DAY JUNE SEVENTH TWO THOUSAND FIVE AVERY FISHER HALL LINCOLN CENTER NEW YORK CITY National Anthems THE STAR -SPANGLED BANNER Oh, say can you see, by the dawn's early light, What so proudly we hail'd at the twil ight's last gleaming, Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thro' the perilous fight O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming? And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air, Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there. Oh say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave, O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave! HATIKVAH THE HOPE- THE NATIONAL AN TH EM OF ISRAEL (Transliteration) Kol od baleyvav penimah Nefesh Yehudi homiyah, Ulfa'asey mizrach kadimah Ayin leTziyon tzofiyah.
