गणेश उत्सव हमारा त्योहार है

 Who started the Ganpati festival, and why? - Quora


गर्व से हम कहते है 

गणेश उत्सव  हमारा त्योहार है

शिवजी महाराज को याद करते है

उन्होंने यह उत्सव आरंभ किया है

किया था फीका ब्रिटिश राज ने

तिलक ने उसे वापस लाया है

गणेश भगवन के पूजा करके

गणेश उत्सव  को खूब निभाया है

तिलक के दैनिक अख़बार 'केसरी' ने

गणेश उत्सव का महत्व बताया है

घर घर में मुर्तिया सजाके 

गली गली में खुशिया मनाते 

सदियों से चले आये प्रथा को

हम बड़े शान से निभाते है। Peshwas To Lokmanya Tilak: Evolution of Ganesh Chaturthi
