Look into my eyes,
There’s something mystical,
No I am not a being cynical,
Look deep into them,
You will see a story,
Story about a land,
Standing tall in the ruins,
It’s barren,
It’s treacherous,
It’s rocky,
Life is hard,
Beware there is no safeguard,
Yes I am the Afghan girl,
The sheen of youth in my eyes,
Is replaced by dry deep, hollow sorrow,
It’s Rule of Taliban,
And death of common Afghan,
Even cattle get a better treatment than me,
Does this fact rattle you?
Even my Father can’t see my face,
No you will not understand my helpless case!
Taliban falls,
My destiny calls,
I have a ray of hope for my young ones,
There will be freedom,
But really can we be free,
Looks like it could never be,
I dream, I dream for life of respect and dignity!
Hope this will be a reality .
