Because I Am a Girl

Why in this world u send me?

Why this life u lend me?

 

I was told this world is nice,

I was told it will brighten my life.

 

But it was wrong, O God!

Why those dreams you showed me lord?

 

I came here and grew up old,

Here my soul, my body was sold.

 

Sold was my dream, my faith in life,

I never was a daughter, never would be a wife.

 

I kept thinking what my fault was?

Where your court, where your laws are,

Where should I appeal, where is your wishing star?

 

No one to adopt me, no one to care,

Tell me with whom my pain I share.

 

I seem free, but my heart is chained,

GOD, if this is the world you send me in,

PLZ NEVER SEND ME AGAIN.

 

ALASSSssssssss…….

I plea from this world,

Don’t let my life in this dirt curl,

Just because of the reason that

I AM A GIRL…….
