deep jalenge deep diwali aayi ho
ho diwali aayi ho
deep jalenge deep diwali aayi ho
ho diwali aayi ho

aa rahi hai man vina ke tar hilane wali
aa rahi priya prem aalap sunane wali
jhan jhan nan baj rahi hai
jhan jhan nan baj rahi hai nupur ki sahnayi
deep jalenge deep diwali aayi ho
ho diwali aayi ho

nile gagan ki gori ne pahni hai nili sadi
naino me kajal chamkata roli mang saware
kali raat amawas ki ho
sab dekh dekh muskaye ho
deep jalenge deep diwali aayi ho
ho diwali aayi ho

pooja archna karne ko us sajni thal sajale
chun chun phul gunth le mala deep jalale
aaj dev ke darshan honge
yahi sandesha layi hai ho diwali aayi ho
deep jalenge deep diwali aayi ho
ho diwali aayi ho

The lamps ignite, Diwali's grace descends,
Oh, Diwali has arrived, it transcends.
The lamps ignite, Diwali's grace descends,
Oh, Diwali has arrived, it transcends.

She comes, to stir the heart's own strings,
My beloved, her love song she sings.
Jingle, jingle, the anklets chime,
Jingle, jingle, in the wedding of time.
The lamps ignite, Diwali's grace descends,
Oh, Diwali has arrived, it transcends.

The azure sky, in a blue saree dressed,
Her eyes with kohl, and vermilion blessed.
Dark night of the new moon's embrace,
All watch and smile, in time and space.
The lamps ignite, Diwali's grace descends,
Oh, Diwali has arrived, it transcends.

For worship, my love, a platter prepare,
Gather blossoms, a garland to share.
Light the lamps, let the light glow,
For the divine sight, the message we know.
The lamps ignite, Diwali's grace descends,
Oh, Diwali has arrived, it transcends.
