All Hail Dearest Lions...!!( a Tribute To the Srilankan Cricket Team)

All hail! dearst Lions; From the land of peace Who plays the Gentlemens' game... They play for our land, To make us all proud Not for money or not for the fame.. Who made thou skins? So tough and strong And hearts so calm and mild.. You attack them all With the bat and the ball, You make them loose and wild.. All hail dearst SANGA, The great captain The sailor of the Lankan Ship... Adore you MURALI, And you DILSHAN Thy bat is more like a whip...!! AJANTHA is the hero, And SANATH the golden name MALINGA is the stylish boy.. MAHELA the magician, VASS the revolution Together you bring us Joy..!!!

Wow, Crystal, you capture my love for sports and the people who play them in this excellent write! I feel this way about several Americn teams. Wish I could see a cricket match just to learn how the game is played. It sounds a lot like baseball. Great poem! Love, Carolyn
