Holi Special
Holi is one of the major festivals of Hindus. It is celebrated in South Asian countries, especially in India and Nepal. Holi is the festival of colors. The festival is celebrated for two to three days. People pour colored water on each other and cook many types of sweets and other food. Holi is celebrated in the spring season because it is welcoming spring. Hindus believe that spring is full of colors so they throw colored water on each other.
Holi is based on a legend about King Hiranyakashipu. `Hiranyakashyapu had a son, Prahlad. Prahlad was the greatest devotee of Lord Vishnu. Hiranyakashyap wanted to kill his son, so he called his sister, Holika. She had a magic robe. This robe had the power to save the wearer from burning in fire. Hiranyakashyap ordered his sister to sit on a burning fire along with Prahlad. He thought that his sister would not be harmed by the fire because of the magic robe and Prahlad would be burnt to death. But the result was the opposite of what the evil demon king planned.
As is believed, no one can harm the person who has God as his savior. Thus Prahlad came out of the burning fire safely and Holika was burnt to death. The other day is celebrated with joyful colors to mark the victory of virtue and goodness over evil.
The festival is celebrated for five days. The 5th day, Rang Panchami marks the closing day of the Holi festival.
How is Holi celebrated?
People are seen with different varieties of colors on Holi. They put colors on each other, sing, dance and make merry. They worship Lord Krishna and put colors on his idol.
Families gather together and party the whole day. They distribute sweets and enjoy to the fullest. The children wait for this event the entire year. This is because they get to play the entire day.
Thus, Holi is considered to be a festival of joy. People eagerly wait for this every year.

Neela, peela, hara, gulaabi yeh sab to ek bahaana hain
hame to tumse milne aana hai
Es Holi pe unhe rangne jaana hain..
Dil ne ek baar phir humara kahna mana hain.
नीला, छिलका, हर, गुलाबी ये सब से इक बहना है
hane to tumsese milne aana hai
एस होली पे उन्हे रंग जमाना है ।।
दिल ने एक बार फिर से हमार मन में है।
