Samo shampioni was the Bulgarian entry at the Eurovision Song Contest 2013 in Malmö performed by the duo Elitsa & Stoyan, who previously represented the country in the 2007 contest.
The song actually finished second in the Bulgarian national final behind a song called "Kismet", however due to copyright allegations the original winner was withdrawn and replaced.
The song was performed 7th in the second semifinal following Malta and preceding Iceland. At the close of voting, it finished in 12th place with 45 points, missing out on the final.

Samo shampioni
Samo shampioni
Prelitat visoko i nadaleko
Skachat i se smeyat i sŭlzi se leyat
Vsichkite yunatsi, te sa nay dobrite
Smeli v igrite silni vŭv dushite
Samo divi, samo shampioni
Zlatni momtsi, momi za milioni
Ima li mladi, ima li ludi
Tsyalo selo doyde, peĭte ne se boyte
Samo shampioni
Samo shampioni
Ima li mladi, ima li ludi
Tsyalo selo doĭde, peyte ne se boyte
Eh…
Ah… ah… ah…
Ah… ah… eh…
Samo divi, samo shampioni
Zlatni momtsi, momi za milioni
Samo divi, samo shampioni
Zlatni momtsi, momi za milioni
Samo divi, samo shampioni
Zlatni momtsi, momi za milioni
Only champions
Only champions
Flying far and high
Jumping and laughing and crying out tears
All brave men, they are the best
Bold in the games, strong at heart
Only wild ones, only champions
Golden boys, girls for millions
Where there are the young ones, where there are the crazy ones
And the whole village comes, sing, don’t be afraid
Only champions
Only champions
Where there are the young ones, where there are the crazy ones
And the whole village comes, sing, don’t be afraid
Eh…
Ah… ah… ah…
Ah… ah… eh…
Only wild ones, only champions
Golden boys, girls for millions
Only wild ones, only champions
Golden boys, girls for millions
Only wild ones, only champions
Golden boys, girls for millions
