Rakhi: Threads of Unity

In threads of love, Rakhi weaves its art, A festival of unity that warms the heart. Beyond mere siblings, its story does extend, Myth, history, and customs blend.

Kunti's Rakhi, Abhimanyu embraced, A symbol of protection, love interlaced. Queen Karnavati and Humayun's bond, Crossing cultures, unity beyond.

Draupadi tied on Krishna's wrist so dear, A bond transcending time, crystal clear. Roxana and Porus, united by grace, Rakhi's embrace in history's embrace.

Tagore's dream to unite the land, Rakhi's thread held in each hand. Country divided, bitter taste sown, Rakhi's power can heal, it's known.

Let's tie the thread of love today, Across divides, let unity sway. From myths to present, let's embrace, Rakshabandhan's love, a binding grace.
