The Cry of An Orphan
Just because my mother died
I have no one to care for me
And just because my father died
there is no one to look after me
Just because my parents died
everyone thinks am a burden
Just because my mother died
i had to become a street child
And just because my father died
i have to fetch my own food
Just because my parents died
i have to live a life of scorn at the streets
Just because my mother died
i cant find a wife myself
And just my father died
i cant become a father myself
Just because my parents died
i live a poor street life
Just because my parents died
which was not my choice nor theirs
i lost my life
and i lost my hope
All these because my parents died.
