FESTIVAL OF LIGHTS*
May countless lights
Show delightful sights:
May there be no threats
Of ****** fights,
No clouds of smoke,
No smell of sulphur,
No noise of gunfire,
No scenes of ruined homes
And orphans' cries
And parents' heart-rending wails,
No sorrow that dims the light
In anyone's eyes.
May the light of knowledge and wisdom
Illumine the path to happiness:
May the light of joy and love
Sparkle in everyone's eyes
In every humble home.
May our fervent prayer -
Lead mankind from darkness to Light'
"Tamasoma Jyothirgamaya." *
May all nations together strive
To pave the way to harmony and peace.
