It is that time of the year again,
When both – the hindus and muslims of Hyderabad come together to paint the town red,
It is that time of the year again,
When sets in the beautiful winter of Hyderabad,
It is that time of the year again,
When if a person fancies a walk…he will find the roads and markets full with people,
People who have come shopping for beautiful clothes, colourful bangles and many more things so that they can welcome the two best festivals of Hyderabad – Diwali and Ramzan,
It is that time of the year again,
When the maulvi’s voice that reads the namaz is more pleasing than ever!
There is something in his voice that makes a person feel as if the air is getting cleansed,
It is that time of the year again,
When a person will find vendors selling the most famous delicacies of Hyderabad – Haleem and Khubani - ka- meetha,
It is that time of the year again,
When the much awaited festival of Diwali is around the corner,
A time for new clothes and jewelry and many goodies to eat,
And of course ! crackers to burst and fill the sky with light!!
It is that time of the year again,
When if a person is present to be a part of all these beauties of a typical winter of Hyderabad – feels blessed.
