Colours dyeing each day in sun-down hue

Arising again, hope dawns to faith renew

Storm clouds bolden black, lush lightning abounds

Rains peacock dance, greening the greedy grounds

Harmony paints through pain of strife

One Light vibrant in the prism of life

Note on significance of Holi Festival:

'As the lust was won over by the Eternal Bliss of Lord shiva the kamadahana or Holi festival is celebrated as an event associating with the Bliss of God. The Holi bonfire is in commemoration of this event. The ash of kama's body settled over the Lord shiva. (The kama dahana murthi dhyana shloka states, bhasma uddhuLita vigraham). So following kamadahana during holi, people put the powders on themselves and others remembering this victory over lust.'
