Is it a crime to be a girl?
For these people judge my every move
How I walk, how I talk or how I see things
They always whisper and make an issue
Is it a crime to be a girl?
For I am not safe anywhere alone
Their hungry eyes rip my self-esteem
And in the end, the blame is on me
Can I not travel or work in peace?
Am I prisoner that needs to be seized?
Is it a crime to be a girl?
For I can not say NO to their ugly needs?
No matter how much I cover up myself
They find a way to destroy my virtue
Is it a crime to be a girl?
For I can not ask them a few questions
In school, college or university
I am bound by several restrictions
“No! You are girl” is what they always say
As if being a girl is a matter of shame
So I need to know
Today, right now
Am I just born to satisfy your wants?
To give birth to men just like you?
To wash your dirty laundry?
So tell me all, you
Is it a crime to be a girl?
