jagmagati o jagmagati diwali ki rat aa gayi

Glittering, oh glittering, Diwali's night has come,
Glittering, oh glittering, Diwali's night has come.
As if stars, as if stars, a wedding procession came home,
Glittering, oh glittering, Diwali's night has come.

Like color, like color, on a flower's face did bloom,
Ah ha, color came, ha ha, color came.
Ho ho, color came, like to the buds,
Like to the buds, a way to laugh did loom.
Ha ha, way came, ha ha, way came.
Ho ho, way came, ho ho, way came.
As a bride, shy with good advice, became,
As a bride, shy with good advice, became, as stars,
Oh, as stars, a wedding procession came home,
Glittering, oh glittering, Diwali's night has come.

The news that the garland of lamps on earth did hear,
The news that the garland of lamps on earth did hear.
Hearing the news, ha ha, hearing the news,
The moon did not rise this night in the sky,
The moon did not rise this night in the sky.
Today the earth, too, in the sky did lie,
Did lie, did lie, did lie, today the earth, too, in the sky did lie.
Glittering, oh glittering, Diwali's night has come,
Glittering, oh glittering, Diwali's night has come.
As if stars, as if stars, a wedding procession came home,
Glittering, oh glittering, Diwali's night has come.
