He further went on to dedicate one of his poems in honor of these Paralympic winners and read, “Yeh Khiladi kuch zindagi jikar, aur kai zindagi markar aaye hai, Yeh Khiladi kuch zindagi jikar, aur kai zindagi markar aaye hai, Haal hi mein vishwasthar ki shreni mein aage badkar aaye hai, Aur zindagi kayi chunauthiyo ke shikhar par chadkar aaye hai, Yeh woh log hai doston jo kismat ki lakheero se ladkar aaye hai” Which when translated, reads - These are those players that have lived a part of their life and fought for the rest, These are those players that have lived a part of their life and fought for the rest, And have successfully emerged on top in front of the world, They have faced challenges in life and stood strong through those, But these are those people, that have fought for their future and changed it successfully.
