WOMAN


When she was born, she heard her father's sigh
And tear drops fell from her mother's eye
For she, the female had entered the world
Into unwelcoming hands, she was hurled
As a child, she was strictly told
Some rules according to which she was to mould
Walk slowly you must never run
Talk softly, beware, never have any sun
You are inferior you are weak
You must obey, you must act meek
You are an invalid without a man
You must not ask why? This is life's plan
And she believed all this was true
Like a beast, kept in the zoo
She thought she belonged to the cage
The bars around her never aroused rage
Her father, her brothers kept the keys
To the chains which prevented her release
While she lived on pretending to be happy and content
Till one day from her home she was sent
Years passed by, her hair became grey
Set aside old woman, and just pray
My grown sons told me, for I came in their way
Listen to a woman? Why should they!
For centuries she lived like this
And she thought it to be bliss
While slowly the life inside her flickered away
And without thinking she did her part play
But the way she had lived so long
She discovered all this to have been wrong
When her mind can think, and heart can feel
Why should she be crushed in life's wheel?
She does not ask for stars in the sky
Or for praises sung so high
Neither place of honor nor nobility
All she wants is freedom, peace and security
