Racing Club de Avellaneda club de mi pueblo querido, yo que admiro con cariño tu valiente batallar en esas horas gloriosas para el deporte argentino, fuiste campeón genuino de la masa popular. Racing Club, vos que diste academia en la América del Sur gran campeón de los tiempos viejos de oro del futbol de mi Nación, yo quisiera ver triunfar a tus colores, que son los de mi bandera porque aún seguís siendo para todos el glorioso Racing Club. Noble club con gran cariño te sigue la muchachada la que tan entusiasmada te sabrá siempre alentar, porque sos vos Racing Club la gloria del tiempo de oro como el Alumni que añoro y jamás volverá.
