From the corners of the world they come
The bravest and the best
To write their names in history

And to face the final test
And they gather as they've always done
With one purpose and one name

To give the souls and lives to
The challenge of the game


Olympia, olympia
Light the flame and let it burn
Olympia, olympia

You will teach and we will learn
We will learn in your name
We have come to honor courage

More than glory, more than fame
We will learn if we can
The triumph of the spirit

Is the victory of man

They have traveled lonely roads of pain

For the moment yet to be
Knowing in the journey each will find
Their own humanity

And they reach out to each other
To make us all aware
That we celebrate our brotherhood

In the struggles that we share

Olympia, olympia

Light the flame and let it burn
Olympia, olympia
You will teach and we will learn

We will learn in your name
We have come to honor courage
More than glory, more than fame

We will learn if we can
The triumph of the spirit
Is the victory of man


And the truth of what you stand for
Will endure when we are gone

Just as long as people dare to be
Olympiad, olympiad, olympiad
You live on, you live on


Olympia, olympia
Light the flame and let it burn

Olympia, olympia
You will teach and we will learn
We will learn in your name

We have come to honor courage
More than glory, more than fame
We will learn if we can

The triumph of the spirit
Is the victory of man


Olympia
Keep the flame burnin'
Olympia, olympia

Celebrate our brotherhood
Olympia, olympia
