Sad News,
Especially to the old schools,
Of the footballing family.

Resplendent those days,
Go with three world cups,
And only player to do so.

He schlep his country,
His club, his people,
And largely the world.

One of the best ever,
Through his and after lifetime
We can't skedaddles that fact.

The legend vamoose,
Vicinal of the game too,
Rest in peace, King.
