When you think of Holi, just one thought comes to your mind – Colours!!! Can we imagine this festival with just one colour??? How stale it would look!!! Similarly even our life is full of many colours, the colours of emotions. Happiness, joy, smile, and yes even sadness, all are different colours of our life. It’s when we are sad; we realize how vibrant the other colours are.
When it comes to Holi the first thought that comes to my mind is Brij and Shree Krishna. From childhood I have heard how Kanhaiya would play Holi with Radha and other Gopiyas. So many songs have been composed on the same. I thought why not make this post bit different and dedicate to the Lord himself.
Aaj rang se oodh du usko
Apne rang mein rang du usko,
Gulal to bas bahana hai,
Unse thithori ka irada hai,
Hum to kab ke rang chuke,
Jabse unke nayan jhuke,
Rang, gulab aur preet ki holi,
Khushi, mauj, ikraar ki holi,
Aaj Brij mein saji rangoli hai,
Rango mein simti holi hai.
Aaj dunia saari kare thitholi,
Aaja hum bhi tujh sang khele holi,
Chehra rang dun tera gulal se,
Chunri rang dun rang lal se,
Hare rang se rang dun choli,
Aaja hum bhi khele holi.
Aaj rang Brij mein bikhrenge,
Sang piya ke aaj hum bheegenge,
Holi ka rang aur bhi charega
Jab piya aaj mere sang hoga.
In the end let me wish you all a very Happy Holi. May your life be filled with all the colours of rainbow and may this festival ushers in loads of happiness, joy and mirth into your life. HAPPY HOLI.

Krishna !!! Krishna!!! I really wonder how you write poems in Hindi so easily Bhaskar Ji 🙂
Somehow this post of yours reminds me my 8th class HINDI text book today…..Tulsi Das, Surdas and last but not the least the lady poet Meera…I used to struggle a lot memorizing the poem “Baso mere nainon me nanda lal…….” . It was an expected question for us in final exams 😉 . Mean while tulsi das ji and surdas ji used to bug us with their style of diff Hindi….whereas we poor creatures used to struggle with ordinary Hindi itself.
Btw Nice poem and wonderful pictures according to the post. would have been much more nice if you have added your flute music too to this post.
