Diwali SMS
Dipawali Ka Yeh Pyara Tyohaar,
Jeewan Me Laye khusiya Apaar,
Laxmiji Viraje Aapke Dwar,
Subh kamna Hamari Kare Sweekar!
"HAPPY DEEPAWALI"

Khub meete meete pakwan khaye,
sehat me char chand lagaye,
log to sirf chand par gaye hai
aap us se bhi upar jaye,
Diwali par hamari yahi hai shubhkamnaye.
