As the first lamps glow,
With a gleaming firelight, So repeats the saga, A memory of a night. When the great God returns And the World rejoices A great crowd is cheering. Bliss fills their voices. For this is the day when light Shines with unending power. This is the day when reverence is shown In every grain and flower. This is the time when the moon hides Under a veil of clouds. But the lamps light up the world And escape the darkening shrouds. And so is the ultimate truth of life For darkness clouds our mentality. But when we sizzle the lamps of good thought, The world lights up in glee. This is the time When the sky is pure and blue This is the time when the world Is cleansed anew. This is the time When the land is rid of sin This is the time When the World is quick to grin. This is the time When everyone is bursting with pleasure This is the time When every poor man enjoys some leisure. This is a time when fireworks Light up the evening sky This is a time when there Is only happiness and joy. This is the time When nothing is ill fated This is the time When everything makes you elated. This is the time when confidence Fills every heart This is the time when the God Allows a fresh, new start. This is the time when everything Looks bright For this is Diwali, The festival of lights |
