In the morning light, the kettle sings,
A dance of steam, oh, the joy it brings.
Tea leaves swirl in a pot so round,
A magic brew, where warmth is found.
Add a pinch of spice, ginger's embrace,
Cardamom whispers, in this sacred space.
Sugar dances, sweetening the tale,
In every sip, worries set sail.
Friends gather close, laughter fills the air,
Stories unfold, moments we share.
With each cup raised, our hearts entwine,
In this simple joy, life feels divine.
So let’s sip together, under the sky so wide,
In the warmth of friendship, let’s take pride.
For in every drop of this fragrant delight,
We find our happiness, shining so bright.
Chai is a treasure, a bond we create,
In every gathering, it’s never too late.
So let’s spread the love, let’s make it our way,
In the heart of India, let’s celebrate chai today!
