Great Malala

Malala, great malala Yousafzai, The goddess of womanhood Your steps and advocate for the girlchild Has brought us where we are now, Your drives has made us to understand That we are here for each other. Malala has laid the foundation for us And we must not let her voice fall On a infertile ground of lost hope, Malala Yousafzai, made our voices thicker Than the rock in the forest, and. Now, We sing with one heart. She was shot to make us better, Her blood sprinkled on the bitter ground Took away our fears from the house Where it had been hidden to demage us. The tears in her eyes healed our sorrow, She campaigned for modesty, for the education Of the girlchild which was taken to be forbidden. She campaigned for equality for womanhood, Never shall we let you down, dear malala. Great malala, the fight you fought for us, Girls in the hood will never let you down nor Forsake you; We shall be educated to say that which we needed to say. Unto you shall we worship for light given to Us to see through the darkest world of pain. Yesterday, Every step we took drew a train of tears, We were on our way to face a world Full of people with deed conscience And heart that lacks love and understanding of womanhood, They wants us in darkness and darkness without a ray of light that will show our future. Malala yousafzai, Nigerian girls say thank you, Pakistan girls are happy for you Ghanian girls say well done, Sierre leonian girls look up to you Gambian girls appreciate your efforts, Togolese girls will not let you down All over the world, we say thank you.
