Here comes the season of joy and celebration;
We pray to Goddess Durga for mercy on her creation.
It is time to enjoy the atmosphere of festivities;
And relish the performances of our little celebrities.
The occasion helps us get rid of day-to-day pressure;
We feel buoyed to exchange pleasantries and gesture.
The Durga Puja highlights the joy of life and eulogy;
To Bengalis, it is more than just to comply with theology.
Weeks ago moms begin their kids’ rehearsals;
And plan for their performance-related apparels.
The festive mood makes the morning air joyful and holy;
At night, curtain comes down bringing a sense of melancholy.
Durga Puja brings out the best of philosophical and cultural unity;
Across the world, the festivity enriches the Bengali community.
The event embellishes our tradition at each faraway place;
We look forward to embracing it next year with dignity and grace.
