will the light finally shine?


Will the light finally shine?
The nation of colorful people
Living in different conditions
Living in different cultures and values
Yet sharing a common sign
The nation we called home

The many types of religion
Flourishing in the open or in the minds
One religion trying hard to impress
The preachers go the wrong way
They don't see it; they are blinded
They think they are right
In religion nobody is correct
And nobody is wrong

The politicians will try to nail in
The winning of votes on the people
By using religion to divide the nation
It will spell the bad faith and the fall
The politicians will be discarded
They will not be heard again

Let religions flow
Respect each other faiths
Learn to reciprocate and live with it
Even the Constitution guarantees its freedom
So don't use religion as a political game
It will bring bad intentions

Deepavali the flow of lights
May it bring us the joy in our lives
Let its lights glow in our eyes
Living in harmony sharing common traits
Let us pray in our own faiths
Let the glorious lights spread its wings
Into every dark corner
As a nation of colorful people and faiths
