Football was his passion but cricket
became his life,
His inspiring journey receives a salute from our side,
A Focussed mind,a clear sight,
Allowed him to progress in life.

Neither made excuses nor complaints,
Accepted situations in a positive way,
Faced hard times-many on his way,
But always had a smile on his face.

Embarking a journey, he reached a stage,
Lead our cricket team to success and fame,
He speaks by his actions rather than words,
A Ranchi boy made wonders.

28yr long wait came to an end,
When our Indian captain took a stand,
His winning shot made our hearts stop,
India ,India cheered the nation aloud.

His dedication and patience made the world admire him,
Most stylish,successful and cool captain India has ever seen,
Awarded Padma Bhushan was a great honour for him,
Your respect in our lives will always be lit.
