This great hockey player was born as Dhyan Singh in August 1905 into a Rajput family in Allahabad. The turning point of his life came when he joined the British Indian Army at the age of 16.

এইগৰাকী মহান হকী খেলুৱৈয়ে ১৯০৫ চনৰ আগষ্ট মাহত ধ্যান সিং নামেৰে এলাহাবাদৰ এটা ৰাজপুত পৰিয়ালত জন্মগ্ৰহণ কৰিছিল। তেওঁৰ জীৱনৰ টাৰ্নিং পইণ্ট আহিছিল যেতিয়া তেওঁ ১৬ বছৰ বয়সত ব্ৰিটিছ ভাৰতীয় সেনাবাহিনীত যোগদান কৰিছিল।

The Army gave him the much needed opportunity and facilities to do his practise hockey. He preferred to do his practice sessions at night after his duty hours. He often waited for the moon to come out so that the visibility in the field improved. His practice sessions coincided with the rising of the moon so, Dhyan Singh came to be called Dhyan Chand by his fellow players. His coach also predicted that he would one day shine like the moon. He gave him the title Chand. (Chand is a Hindi word for moon).

সেনাই তেওঁক তেওঁৰ প্ৰেকটিছ হকী কৰিবলৈ অতি প্ৰয়োজনীয় সুযোগ আৰু সুবিধা দিছিল। কৰ্তব্যৰ সময়ৰ পিছত ৰাতি অনুশীলন কৰাটো তেওঁ পছন্দ কৰিছিল। তেওঁ প্ৰায়ে চন্দ্ৰ ওলোৱালৈ অপেক্ষা কৰিছিল যাতে পথাৰত দৃশ্যমানতা উন্নত হয়। তেওঁৰ অনুশীলনবোৰ চন্দ্ৰ উদয়ৰ লগত মিলি গৈছিল গতিকে, ধ্যান সিঙক তেওঁৰ সতীৰ্থ খেলুৱৈসকলে ধ্যান চান্দ বুলি ক’বলৈ ধৰিলে। তেওঁৰ প্ৰশিক্ষকেও ভৱিষ্যদ্বাণী কৰিছিল যে তেওঁ এদিন চন্দ্ৰৰ দৰে জিলিকি উঠিব। তেওঁ তেওঁক চান্দ উপাধি দিলে। (চান্দ চন্দ্ৰৰ হিন্দী শব্দ)।

    A few years later in 1928, he led the Indian hockey team to win the first Gold Medal for India in Amsterdam. He won his second Gold in the 1932 Olympics in Los Angeles. The last Gold came to him in the 1936 Olympics in Berlin where he led the Indian team. He also won the title of ''hockey personality of the century'' there.

তাৰ কিছু বছৰৰ পাছত ১৯২৮ চনত তেওঁ ভাৰতীয় হকী দলটোক নেতৃত্ব দি আমষ্টাৰডামত ভাৰতৰ বাবে প্ৰথমটো স্বৰ্ণ পদক লাভ কৰে। ১৯৩২ চনত লছ এঞ্জেলছত অনুষ্ঠিত অলিম্পিকত দ্বিতীয়বাৰৰ বাবে স্বৰ্ণ অৰ্জন কৰে। ১৯৩৬ চনত বাৰ্লিনত অনুষ্ঠিত অলিম্পিকত তেওঁৰ ওচৰলৈ শেষৰটো সোণ আহিছিল য’ত তেওঁ ভাৰতীয় দলটোক নেতৃত্ব দিছিল। তাত তেওঁ ''শতিকাৰ হকী ব্যক্তিত্ব''ৰ খিতাপও লাভ কৰে।

    Dhyan Chand was given the nicknames 'The wizard' and 'The Magician of Hockey' for his superb ball control. During his sporting career spanning twenty three years (1926 to 1949), he scored a total of 570 goals in 15 matches, according to his autobiography titled Goal.

ধ্যান চান্দক তেওঁৰ চমৎকাৰ বল নিয়ন্ত্ৰণৰ বাবে ‘দা উইজাৰ্ড’ আৰু ‘দা মেজিচিয়ান অৱ হকীৰ’ ডাকনাম দিয়া হৈছিল। তেত্ৰিশ বছৰীয়া ক্ৰীড়া জীৱনত (১৯২৬ চনৰ পৰা ১৯৪৯ চনলৈকে) তেওঁ ১৫খন মেচত মুঠ ৫৭০টা গ’ল দিছিল বুলি তেওঁৰ আত্মজীৱনী গ’ল বুলি কোৱা হৈছে।

        The Government of India awarded him the national honour of Padma Bhushan in 1956. He passed away at the age of 74 in Delhi on 3 December 1979. Very appropriately, his birthday 29th August is celebrated as National Sports Day.

১৯৫৬ চনত ভাৰত চৰকাৰে তেওঁক পদ্মভূষণৰ ৰাষ্ট্ৰীয় সন্মানেৰে সন্মানিত কৰে।১৯৭৯ চনৰ ৩ ডিচেম্বৰত দিল্লীত ৭৪ বছৰ বয়সত তেওঁৰ মৃত্যু হয়।অতি উপযুক্তভাৱে তেওঁৰ জন্মদিন ২৯ আগষ্ট ৰাষ্ট্ৰীয় ক্ৰীড়া দিৱস হিচাপে পালন কৰা হয়।
