Pongal O Pongal Poem by Indira Renganathan

Pongal O Pongal



Pongal o pongal
When the sun turns vernal

Pongal o pongal
Harvest season functional

Pongal o pongal
Three days of joyful festival

Pongal o pongal
Bogi to discard wasteful

Pongal o pongal
Praying to the Sun God thankful

Pongal o pongal
To greet with sarkarai pongal

Pongal o pongal
A sport of bull-fight successful

Pongal o pongal
To one and all Happy Pongal

A great poem on the festival of Pongal.It is a major festival of South India and celebrated with great joy and merriment for three days.In Odisha we celebrate it one day as Makar Sankranti.People throng to temple to do puja with offerings of''Makar Chaula'- -a mixure of raw rice, milk, ripe banana, coconut etc.It is counted as an auspicious day and people pray the Sun-God for blessings.
