Is google translate accurate? Here is my result

Hey everyone! So my spanish teacher told us that google translate isnt all that accurate.  She proved it to us by putting the national anthem in it. It translated it to spanish and it had it wrong a little. She told us that its not good with paragraphs but word for words okay
Oh, say, can you see, by the dawn's early light,
(Original from the website after lyrics)
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 rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof thro' the night that our flag was still there.
O say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
On the shore dimly seen thro' the mists 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 on the stream:
'Tis the star-spangled banner: O, long may it wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
And where is that band who so vauntingly swore
That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion
A home and a country should leave us no more?
Their blood has wash'd out their foul footsteps' pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave:
And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
O, thus be it ever when freemen shall stand,
Between their lov'd homes and the war's desolation;
Blest with vict'ry and peace, may the heav'n-rescued land
Praise the Pow'r that hath made and preserv'd us a nation!
Then conquer we must, when our cause is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust"
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

Oh, dice, se puede ver, por las primeras luces del amanecer,Lo que tan orgullosamente nos hail'd al último destello del crepúsculo?Cuya amplia franjas y estrellas brillantes, excelentes referencias 'la lucha peligrosa,Sobre las murallas que watch'd, estaban tan galantemente el streaming?El resplandor rojizo de los cohetes, las bombas estallando en el aire,Dio prueba través de la noche que nuestra bandera aún estaba allí.O por ejemplo, no todavía onda que Star-Spangled BannerSobre la tierra de los libres y el hogar de los valientes?
En la orilla vagamente visto excelentes referencias 'las nieblas de las profundidades,Dónde anfitrión arrogante del enemigo en silencio temor reposa,¿Qué es lo que la brisa, sobre el imponente empinada,Como sopla a rachas, oculta media, media revela?Ahora coge el brillo de primer rayo de la mañana,En plena gloria reflejada ahora brilla en la corriente:'Es la Star-Spangled Banner: O, Puede agitar de largoSobre la tierra de los libres y el hogar de los valientes!
¿Y dónde está esa banda que tan ostentosamente juróQue los estragos de la guerra y la confusión de la batallaUn hogar y un país que nos deben dejar no más?Su sangre ha wash'd cabo contaminación falta sus pasos.Ningún refugio podría salvar el asalariado y el esclavoDesde el terror de vuelo o la oscuridad de la tumba:Y la bandera en señal de triunfo estrellado doth olaSobre la tierra de los libres y el hogar de los valientes.
O, por lo tanto sea nunca cuando los hombres libres serán firmes,Entre sus hogares amé y la desolación de la guerra;Benditos en la victoria y la paz, que la tierra heav'n-rescatado¡Alabado sea el Pow'r que pueblos hizo y nos preserv'd una nación!Luego conquistar debemos, cuando nuestra causa es justa,Y este sea nuestro lema: "En Dios está nuestra confianza"Y la bandera en señal de triunfo Star-Spangled meceráSobre la tierra de los libres y el hogar de los valientes!
