The mighty beast soared on the lofty breeze
He flew his MiG-21 Bison with so much ease
Valor of Wing Commander Abhinandan was unconquerable and supreme
As he set out to fulfil his imperial dreams
Spreading its wings the jet engulfed the sky in darkness
As it dominated the skies, people in envy witnessed
As it dominated the skies, people in envy witnessed
In adverse situations not once did he abort his flight
For his country as he set out on a secret tryst
His jet was gunned down by the enemy’s air missiles
And was taken captive by the inscrutable hostiles
As he inadvertently parachuted over to the enemy territory
Unknowingly in those moments, he had created history
Feted as a hero for the dignity he maintained
Amidst humiliation all the torture he bravely sustained
By his captors, he was beaten and deprived of sleep
He maintained silence as they continued to inflict wounds deep
Like an eagle, he defied the ferocious storms
And soon he was back in his colossal form
Proudly he returned home,his sacrifices weren’t in vain
He allowed the fire of vengeance within him to remain
The patriotism of this brave-heart was not for mere display
Like an eagle, he attacked his unsuspecting prey
It was an open warning to the enemies who despair
No one ventures where this mighty eagle dares
