When AUDAX enters the field So does my heart Chest it (the ball) Put it in the ground Score the goal It's pure emotion When AUDAX enters the field Honors our tradition School for great players Is hungry for goals Winning and being the champion Fierce at school Doesn't mess up Audax forging champions Valiant warrior, Makes the ground tremble Audax in our hearts!
