Festival of Lights
Festival of Lights
Today is not Tuesday of the
Month of Chaitra
Sacrifices will be performed
Today at the shrine of
Mother Taratarini.
Today is not Gahma purnima
When animals are sacrificed.
Today is not Maha Bisuba Sankranti
That sacrifices will be performed
On the feet of mother Kali.
Even today is not Raja Sankranti
Which sacrifices will be offered
To Mother Simhasani.
For the sake of our forefathers
The new moon month of Karttika
All over India during the year.
On the day when sacrifices are
Made to the previous men with lamps
That day is our very happy festival
Of lights and once is a year
By offering lamp sacrifice
To the eldest person.
Lord Ramachandra killed Ravan
And returned to Ayodhya
Permanently, and leaving
Ravan 's brother Bibhisan
In charge of Lanka.
Today we celebrate Diwali
By remembering those happy
Memories of the past.
Diwali is one of the most
Beloved and celebrated
Festival of lights.
