What exactly does By the rude bridge that arched the flood their flag to April's breeze unfurled here once the embattled farmers stood and fired the shot heard round the world mean?

the British people who had settled in what is now Massachusetts had decided to separate themselves from the rule of the English monarchy. The British soldiers were coming to attack the farmers and subjugate them once more to the royal rule. The men who were mostly farmers, were waiting at Concord, by a river for the oncoming British soldiers. When the British soldiers arrived, set to do battle, the farmers fired upon them and thus began the Revolutionary War which ended with The Independence of America ! The poem from which this phrase is taken is entitled "Concord" "By the rude bridge that arched the flood, Their flag to April's breeze unfurled, Here, once, the embattled farmers stood And fired the shot heard 'round the world."

A reconstruction of the crude bridge was the site of a monument for whose dedication this poem, was written. The bridge was the site of the Battle of Concord where 500 colonial militia faced the British regulars in what was essentially the first battle of the Revolutionary War. The battle took place on April 9, 1775, so their flag was unfurled to April's breeze. Many of the militiamen were farmers. Their shots were called "the shot heard round the world" because of the worldwide implication of the American Revolution.
