Kick the ball
And score the goal
Respond to call
And jump the wall
Fortune favors
The strike offers
Rare opportunity
To prove the skill and quality
Not ball alone moves
But feet too proves
Enormous strength
With presence of mind and long breathe
Mighty survives
The game revives
The hope of millions
The pride of nations
No one may prefer
To be out of tune and differ
It is game of giants
To rule the world at present
No signal shall block
The full strength and strokes
The winner may finally kick
With ever green golden stick
