Navratri Wishes In Hindi Quotes
Happy Navratri 2021
1. हमको था इंतजार वो घड़ी आ गई…
होकर सिंह पर सवार माता रानी आ गई…
होगी अब मन की हर मुराद पूरी…
भरने सारे दुःख माता अपने द्वार आ गई
नवरात्रि की शुभकामनाएं
कभी नारियल तो
कभी फूल चढ़ाते हैं।
और झोलियाँ भर भर के
तेरे दर से लाते हैं।
हैप्पी नवरात्रि!!
नन्हें-नन्हें कदमों से माँ आयें आपके द्वार।
जय माता दी।
