With azure and emerald May come the Holi herald, Indulged in fuchsia and lilac, Smeared in crimson pack, Offering you sweet dishes, Fulfilling all your wishes.
Soaked in grand indigo, May you always follow The path of candor and truth, Which may not be smooth, But will lead to the Divine, And your honesty will shine.
With amber and peach I earnestly beseech That you stop war And love each other. Discarding your hatred In ardor may you tread.
Drenched in deep red May this Holi embed Colors of liberty, Tinges of equality, Shades of fraternity, And abolish enmity.
