A roaring city brimming with warriors,
A mighty goddess rules.
    Athena.
Patron of peace, knowledge and power,
Patron of war, wisdom and purity.
Athena.
Daughter of Zeus,
Daughter of battle.
    Athena.

Determined to rule with power and grace,
Determined to better Athens.
    Athena.
The legend lives on,
The legend never dies.
    Athena.
