Hymn of Olympiacos
The Hymn of Olympiacos or Thrile ton Gipedon (Legend of stadiums) is the anthem of the Greek multi-sport club Olympiacos CFP, based in Piraeus.[1] The lyrics were written in 1980 by the Greek songwriter Kostas Kilimantzos, with Spiros Valsamakis being the composer.[2] Christakis Voliotis was the first to perform the anthem.
Historically, the first hymn of Olympiacos was composed in 1931 by Mimis Vasiliadis (lyrics) and Yiangos Laoutaris (music). It was a march-style anthem and more oriented to football matches.

- Greek lyrics
- Θρύλε των γηπέδων Ολυμπιακέ
- δαφνοστεφανωμένε μεγάλε και τρανέ,
- έχεις δύναμή σου Ολυμπιακέ
- τον πύρινό σου κόσμο που δε λυγά ποτέ.
- Ολυμπί-Ολυμπί-Ολυμπιακέ
- ομάδα ομαδάρα μου,
- μεγάλη μου αγάπη,
- Ολυμπιακάρα μου.
- Δόξα στα παιδιά σου Ολυμπιακέ
- χιλιοτραγουδισμένε, στον κόσμο ξακουστέ.
- Τρέμουν στ' άκουσμά σου Ολυμπιακέ
- κι ακόμα σε θυμούνται η Σάντος κι ο Πελέ.
- Ολυμπί-Ολυμπί-Ολυμπιακέ
- ομάδα ομαδάρα μου,
- μεγάλη μου αγάπη,
- Ολυμπιακάρα μου.
