Little girl she said,
The world is your stage,
Take it, conquer it!
But today I walked on an empty stage,
The table was not even set,
They took away my power and my voice,
They silenced me,
And just when I thought my voice would have echoed through the valleys, mountains, cities and villages.
I was shut down and asked to avoid the spotlight.
They say little girls shouldn’t be immersed in a man’s world,
Little girls shouldn’t be engaged in politics,
Little girls shouldn’t be anyone’s pawns,
Little girls should therefore not have a voice of their own,
To be engaged in conversations that affect and shape their futures!
Voiceless little girls,
Silenced!
Who will stand for little girls!
