Durga puja of Bengal is awaited by all .
The elated environment, the happening street ,
rammed at all places, whether it rains or scorching heat
The houses, the lanes, kolkata the city of pride.
All lit colourfully, like a sheen bride.
There’s smile on each face, men, women or child.
New clothes for each day, gifted are piled.
The music of Rabindra Sangeet, and the authentic sound of ‘dhaak’.
Most amazing culture of Bengal, if u happen to track.
‘Dhooni’, ‘Sindoor khela’ with the ‘lal pad sari’.
To relish amazing delicacies from ‘Rasogulla’ aludum luchi to ‘bhoger khichuri’.
Oh yes, the splendid sight is the night pandal hopping.
The crowd just moves on eating and gossiping.
Delighted visage, remarkable pleasure,
every person is tied up,no time for leisure.
Long months of efforts and toil of labours,
based on the theme, adorned with different materials.
The diety vanquished mahisasura, the devil.
The festival symbolises victory of good over evil.
At the end of it, the Goddes is immersed into the water,
teary eyes all are left, the place is left by a daughter.
In Bengal the slogan we sing and say,
“Aasche bochor abar hobe”
