Row of Lights by Malini Lakshmi Bai
Sweet rings of the temple bells
Gentle fragrance of the flowers
Vibrant colours of the rangoli
Luminous glow emitted from diyas
Welcoming Lakshmi to homes
Seeking blessings and abundances
Offerings sweets and gifts
Time for fireworks and sparklers
Joyful children rejoice in happiness
Flavourful snacks and sweets for all
Ethnic apparels enliven the festival
Old and young united together
Glow of joy and happiness radiates
Fun and laughter fill the atmosphere
Little lamps bring gleams of hope
This is the beauty of our festival
Deepavali the grand festival of lights
A moment full of divine light and serenity
Celebrating light over darkness
A magical moment for you and me
