I Am Blessed To Be Born a Girl

I am blessed to born a girl

Fortunate to be a daughter to parents who love me

A proud sister who has a brother to protect her,

I will not restrict myself to four walls of the house

Neither did I see my mother let responsibilities of life stop her 

Earned her degree and got a good job

Saved to purchase things she desired

Cook for her family, do the household chores

She took every step, with faith in God

With self confidence, courage and determination she still moves ahead 

Like my father in times of trouble, protect and support my household

Pay for my children’s education

Work hard and give them a better future

Set a good example for them to follow

Like my brother, get higher quality education

Uphold family name in the society

Get driving licence, learn to play guitar 

I am happy to have parents who trust me

Gave me freedom to pursue my dreams      

Courage to stand up for myself
