NA ŠTAJERSKO GREMO
Na Štajerskem raste cvetlica cvetlic
Ponos in simbol je naših goric
Če sonca dovolj je, pa tudi dežja,
Ko pride jesen, sad čudežni da.
Klopotci prepevajo pesem glasno,
Oznanjajo nam, spet brat se bo šlo.
Se jagoda zrela že v brenti smeji,
Iz preše pa mošt se prvi cedi.
NA ŠTAJERSKO GREMO,
KJER V ZIDANCI LUŠTNO NAM BO,
KOZARČEK ZA NAS,
KOZARČEK ZA VAS,
ZAPOJMO SI NA VES GLAS.
