Raksha Bandhan or Rakhi is a festival primarily observed in North India, which celebrates the relationship between brothers and sisters.The festival is observed by Hindus, Sikhs, and Muslims. The central ceremony involves the tying of a rakhi (sacred thread) by a sister on her brother's wrist. This symbolizes the sister's love and prayers for her brother's well-being, and the brother's lifelong vow to protect her. The festival falls on the full moon day (Shravan Poornima) of the Shravan month of the Hindu lunisolar calendar. It grew in popularity after Rani Karnavati, the widowed queen of Chittor, sent a rakhi to the Mughal emperor Humayun when she required his help.

The festival is marked by the tying of a rakhi, or holy thread, by the sister on the wrist of her brother. The brother in return offers a gift to his sister and vows to look after her as she presents sweets to her brother. The brother and sister traditionally feed one another sweets. Since North Indian kinship practices give cousins a status similar to siblings, girls and women often tie the rakhi to their male cousins as well.

Scraps:
neend apni bhula ker,
sulaye humko,
aasun apne gira ker,
hansaye sabko,
dard kabhi na dena,
us devi ke avtaar ko,
zamana kahta bahen jisko

Usaka Husn gaya kaleja cheer
Nayano Se barbas Chhuta ek teer
vo Muskrai, Nazdeeq aai
Boli, Rakhi Bandhwale mere veer.

Bhagwan kare tujhe bahut pyaar mile
sabhi ladkiyan tujhe baandhe rakhi
tujhe jeevan bhar ka unka saath mile.
Happy Raksha Bandhan.

eswar kare har raat chand bankar aaye,
din ka ujala shaan banker aayae,
kabhi door na ho aap ke chehre se hansi,
nya din aisa koi mehmaan banker aaye
