It's the "Festival of Lights" today,

It's again the day of Diwali,

It's time to dress up folks,

It's time to adorn the thali.

It's the occasion to throng the temples,

Pray to the Gods and give them offerings,

It's an opportunity to entreat the deities,

To bless us all and rid us of sufferings.

It's the day to light the diyas,

Ignite the rockets and burst crackers,

But it's also the time to be safe,

From the fireworks and all the sparklers.

It's the season to pay a visit,

To all our friends and relations,

To hand them over sweets and presents,

Diwali is our splendid chance.

But while you spend a time of joy,

Don't think it's merriment all the way,

Out there wait many of those,

For whom it's no time to be gay.

Denied of laughter and smiles for days,

They know not what it is to enjoy,

Can you not share something you have,

Can you not bring them a little joy?

When you can make someone else smile

When you can be someone's ally

That's when you can yourself be glad

That's when you'll have a HAPPY DIWALI!

On this auspicious festival of lights,

May the glow of joy,

Prosperity and happiness

Illuminate you life and and your home.

Wishing you a Happy Diwali
