I celebrate this day in a society where,
she was killed before her life begun
For she was not a son.
I celebrate this day in a society where,
She is judged for painted lips and revealed hips.
I celebrate this day in a society where,
Her dreams are never paid heed
For all she was taught is to serve and feed.
I celebrate this day in a society where,
She is expected to show progress
Despite being paid less.
I celebrate this day in a society where,
Men strike AGAINST laws,
That condemn marital rape.
With furious heart and burning desire
WE GIRLS celebrate this day
NATIONAL GIRL CHILD DAY!
