Poem on Sachin Tendulkar
To,
Dear Sachin Tendulkar,
With the passing sands of time, the moving clouds, the blowing breeze,the materialistic world comes to a stand still;
To greet you, to pray for you, to bless you;
In this world of unknown few people become so special, so their deeds, so their birthday;
This birthday we call it as a hey day;
A blissful day, a cheerful day;
This is your’s heyday, this is our hey day;
We celebrate you, we emulate you;
Dear Sachin Tendulkar,
With the passing sands of time, the moving clouds, the blowing breeze,the materialistic world comes to a stand still;
To greet you, to pray for you, to bless you;
In this world of unknown few people become so special, so their deeds, so their birthday;
This birthday we call it as a hey day;
A blissful day, a cheerful day;
This is your’s heyday, this is our hey day;
We celebrate you, we emulate you;
Every new time, gives the reason to hope, a hope to rope the seasons to come;
The hope that is faith, the faith that is power;
The faith is magnanimous, the power is unanimous;
A nation inspires by you, a nation swears b you;
A nation rejoices you, a nation stands by you;
The hope is you, the power is you;
The hope that is faith, the faith that is power;
The faith is magnanimous, the power is unanimous;
A nation inspires by you, a nation swears b you;
A nation rejoices you, a nation stands by you;
The hope is you, the power is you;
The hope when turns into smile gives rush for miles in the lives of us;
The hope when turned into a tear brings the hush of fear in the lives of us;
The faith, when turns into courage bring the gush of enthusiasm in the lives of us;
The emotion is you, the emotion is you;
The equanimity you show in the face of adversity, the simplicity you show in the face of complexity;
When the nation’s demand becomes your command;
The demand to place the nation’s pride on the pedestal;
You lead us stoically, showing no pains, for nation’s gain;
We feel grateful, we feel heart filled;
The attitude is you, the gratitude is you;
When the things don’t work within us, we feel dejected;
When the things don’t work for our happiness we feel rejected;
We try to search happiness through others;
Few people come across to entertain us; few come across to shower happiness on us;
The entertainment is ephemeral, the happiness is eternal;
The happiness is you, the happiness is you;
It’s very difficult to match the standards set by an individual;
It’s very ideal to follow the path set by an individual;
You inspire us in many ways, yet remain simple;
You deeds speak in volumes, yet you remain simple;
The inspiration is you, the inspiration is you.
The hope when turned into a tear brings the hush of fear in the lives of us;
