Nike, able patroness of heroes,
clear-eyed granter of endurance and faith.
In crisp and precise plans of battle,
in swift, sudden changes of direction,
in effort rewarded, in goals achieved,
in these we feel your hand, honored Nike.
Nike, companion of great Athena,
fair one honored in distant Samothrace,
your chosen champions will ever prevail.
We thank you for help to the deserving,
for that last push toward well-earned victory.
Vibrant Nike, we praise and honor you.
