Sportske himne · Other Songs - Sportske himne

Nek' se Marakani vrate slavni dani
kad' si Zvezdo bila iznad svih
nek' pobede tvoje nasu dusu lece
nek' te Sever povede u njih

Ceo zivot u svom srcu nosim boje te
grad Beograd crkvu svoju
Zvezdo volim te

Ref. 2x
Nek' nam Bog da srece da se vrate dani
slavni dani nase proslosti
da i deca nasa na Marakani
raduju se svetskoj tituli

Sve sto zelim u ovom trenutku
igraj Zvezdo, igraj i pobedi
za nama ce ostati neredi
igraj Zvezdo, igraj i pobedi

Veselo mi nekad s' tobom bese
kad si Zvezdo bila prvak sveta
pevala je tad cela planeta
da je nasa Zvezda prvak sveta

Ref. 3x

Ne, necu plakati srce mi je puno radosti
