Sikhs celebrate Bandi Chhorh Divas to mark the return of the Sixth Guru, Guru Hargobind Ji, who was freed from imprisonment and also managed to release 52 Hindu Kings (political prisoners) at the same time from the famous fort of Gwalior by making clever use of Emperor Jahangir's orders to allow any who could hold on to the Gurus coat tails to leave the fort with the Guru (October, 1619).

ਦੀਵਾਲੀ ਦੀ ਰਾਤਿ ਦੀਵੇ ਬਾਲੀਅਨਿ॥
ਤਾਰੇ ਜਾਤਿ ਸਨਾਤਿ ਅੰਬਰਿ ਭਾਲੀਅਨਿ॥
ਫੁਲਾਂ ਦੀ ਬਾਗਾਤਿ ਚੁਣਿ ਚੁਣਿ ਚਾਲੀਅਨਿ॥
ਤੀਰਥਿ ਜਾਤੀ ਜਾਤਿ ਨੈਣ ਨਿਹਾਲੀਅਨਿ॥
ਹਰਿ ਚੰਦਉਰੀ ਝਾਤਿ ਵਸਾਇ ਉਚਾਲੀਅਨਿ॥
ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਸੁਖ ਫਲ ਦਾਤਿ ਸਬਦਿ ਸਮ੍ਹਾਲੀਅਨਿ ॥6॥

dheevaalee dhee raath dheevae baaleeani||
thaarae jaath sanaath a(n)bar bhaaleeani||
fulaa(n) dhee baagaath chun chun chaaleeani||
theerathh jaathee jaath nain nihaaleeani||
har cha(n)dhouree jhaath vasaae ouchaaleeani||
guramukh sukh fal dhaath sabadh samhaaleean ||6||

Lamps are lighted in the night of divali festival.
Stars of different variety appear in the sky.
In the gardens the flowers are there which are selectively plucked.
The pilgrims going to pilgrimage centres are also seen.
The imaginary habitats have been seen coming into being and vanishing.
All these are momentary, but the Gurmukhs with the help of the Word nourish the gift of the pleasure fruit.(6)

yaar manuni chaiedi hai,,,,je kise hor dharam di bhi ral mil khushiyan mana lao,,,,,
