1. "The Beautiful Game" by Unknown
A symphony of legs and feet,
A ballet on a field of green.
A dance of skill, a burst of heat,
The world unites, a common scene.
The roar of crowds, a thunderous sound,
As passion ignites, a vibrant flame.
A team united, bound and crowned,
With glory's quest, a winning game.
2. "The Goal" by Langston Hughes (Inspired by Soccer)
A blur of motion, a flash of light,
The ball sails forward, taking flight.
A desperate dive, a valiant stand,
But destiny's hand, it takes command.
The net ripples, the crowd erupts,
The goal is scored, the feeling erupts.
A moment etched, in memory's hold,
A victory won, a story told.
3. "Ode to the Striker" by Anonymous
Oh, striker bold, with heart aflame,
You charge the field, a warrior's name.
With lightning speed, you take the ball,
And leave defenders standing tall.
Your every touch, a work of art,
A masterpiece, a skillful start.
The goal you seek, the prize you claim,
The striker's glory, an eternal flame.
4. "The Keeper's Stand" by Unknown
Between the posts, a solitary soul,
A guardian of the net, taking control.
With agile leaps and fearless might,
He stands defiant, in the fading light.
A wall of flesh, against the tide,
He saves the day, with fearless stride.
The keeper's stand, a noble sight,
A symbol of defense, day and night.
5. "The World Cup Fever" by Anonymous
A fever grips the world, it's true,
The World Cup's here, a dream come through.
From Rio's shores to London's streets,
The passion burns, the spirit beats.
The nations gather, a global stage,
Where legends rise and heroes engage.
A spectacle of skill and grace,
The World Cup magic, we embrace.
