A girl child:
A girl
child.
From the hot
sun,
Sitting
under the mango tree,
Tirelessly,
Hopelessly,
Helplessly.
A girl
child.
In the class
room,
Building her
future,
For a better
tomorrow,
A girl
child.
Hopelessly,
With no
happiness at all,
Carrying a
tray on her head,
Leave her on
the street,
She will
come home raped and abuse.
A girl
child.
give her
education,
She will
bring honor,
She will
bring Glory.
A girl
child.
On the
street,
She will
bring shame and blame,
Give her to
a husband,
She will
bring you dowry of cowry.
A girl
child.
give her
education,
She will end
up in tower and power,
train a girl
child,
You train a
nation.
