The scent of marigolds, fill the air
And the lively music, fill the ears
Flickering lights, climb the walls
And sweets, perfectly shaped and sized
Enriched with sweetness

Scarcity of flowers and garlands during Tihar
Of powerful connections and fair forgiveness
When shades of alpana bespeak vivid colors
In life outshining monotonous concerns
Laughter and joy of all kinds
Alike those markets so alive
Trading happiness in exchange for gloom
With every flare of glowing sparklers
Creating and inspiring
Bonds throughout.
