Lamps are not for bursting
They are simply to be seen
Crackers may now be ignited
Provided they are green

Milords have permitted
Celebrants their Diwali fun
Environment is important
But justice must be done

As it is in Capital Territory
All have begun to choke
Status quo won't change with
Three more days of smoke

Milords decided on merits
No compulsion or collusion
Green crackers too emit smoke
But don't cause any pollution..
