Born to weep, after a dream?

Why Are they happy 

when the son is born,

born to oppress

and leaving her forlorn?


In a world 

where freedom's song was sung,

She wonders why 

her voice feels so unsung.


Years of independence, 

yet still in chains,

Her safety questioned, 

her dignity stained.


In uniform or clothes

deemed too brief,

She faces fear, 

not finding relief.


Age is no shield 

from a cruel hand,

Was freedom just for men, 

she can't understand.


Blamed for walking 

in the dark of night,

While sons roam free, 

their wrongs in sight.


Not even safe 

in the place they’ve grown,

She asks, 

where can she safely roam?


Taught to know a touch 

that's pure or vile,

Yet who teaches the son 

to walk a better mile?


Why must she learn 

to survive and fear,

While he escapes 

without ever shedding a tear?


Twelve years or more

the story remained same,

Justice was denied 

under the government insane!
