To the men in blue, this one is for you

An ode to the monumental win of team India in the World cup 2024

India!!!!!! India!!!!!!

Zikr karke apni mushkilo ka, uske aasre me Maine apna sar jhuka dia,

Apni manzilo ke rukavato ko Maine ab uske Ghar ka pata bata dia

Kyuki jab uski meher hogi toh har bhikra khawab apna ashiyana payega

Are ek baar rab ko pukar toh laga, ye sara jaha teri Khawishon ko pura karne ki saazish me lag jayega

In the depths of their devotion true,

In the voice of their blood toil and sweat, hid their agonizing pain under their sinew,

I live in a country that abides by the gods and worships the ballad of cricket in patriotic hues,

I stand with pride as before my very eyes we witness the revolutionary flair of the men in blue

29th June 2024! The fateful day when the world drew their hearts in singular breaths as the groundbreaking battle of the champions of willows played in their acrostic allure and kept our sanity at bay. Insanity and cricket have one thing in commonality, it has a multiverse of infinite madness, where millions place the weight of their expectations on the shoulders of a battalion that charges forward in the love for their endeavour and the nation they embody. To many, it would sound like we are witnessing a war, a fight for the survival of the fittest. While the perceptive lens of glancing at the historical phenomenon we saw today may prevail in its disparity, one stance that beholds to be shared is- six letters- 1.4 billion Hearts- INDIA.

With chills down my spine before my very eyes,

The dedication of our heroes pledges the victory cheers awaited at eternity’s sigh.

To me, the monumental win of Team India is the prevalence of light over darkness, dedication over doubt, and celebration of the timeless devotion of the team towards their craft. Time in its eternal flair marches in hammered wheelings, leaving us with nothing but memories, experiences to etch in our hearts, perseverance to hail in our strife, to conquer our fears and immerse ourselves into our passions that make us alive. To be or not be is a question that echoes in the magnamity of my mind, a choice to be indifferent to the chaos around me or to be resilient and brave in the quest to find the light no one can see. The path of to being undeniable lies in the turmoil of blood and sweat, of being so swarmed in your thirst of being the best version of yourself that you become unstoppable in your discourse

The World Cup that inscribed Team India as the Unconquerable champions, is the testament to the tale of those who drown themselves in the beauty of their craft, in the endear of their soul that in every ounce longs to be called in the name of their art, to be recognised as the ones who tirelessly surrendered themselves in the conquest of excellence.

The pursuit of excellence in its abundance gallops to the end of might,

To be the best we have ever been, to the men in blue, we thank you for being the radiance of glimmering lights.

Today as we finally lift the hopes, dreams and desires of millions of hearts worldwide,

Our spirits in the song of unity for the love for our men in blue in unison abide.

In the radiance of eternal joy- we sing to our heart's content-

Aaj mere shero ne namumkin ko mumkin kar dia,

Har ansu, har muskrat aaj teri jeet ke naam, meri team India
