Song for a Woman-Song

 Song for a Woman

She is the one
She is the one
Who gave life to you

She is the one
She is the one
Who smiled while she cried
When you came crying to the world
She is the only one who is none other than your mother

She is the one
She is the one
Who shared her pride
When your mother brought you into the world
She is the only one who is none other than your grandmother

She is the one
She is the one
Who walked with you
Who shared with you
Fought with you
Fought for you
She is the only one who is none other than your sister

She is the one
She is the one
Who gave her notes to you
Who wished you all the best
Who shared her happiness
She is the only one who is none other than your classmate

She is the one
She is the one
Who gave her heart to you
Showered her love on you
Gave birth to your symbol of love
She is the only one who is none other than your spouse

She is in your life
She is in your career
She is everywhere
She is the source of life
She is the woman the world needs to serve

Though there are so many wishes
On Women's Day
Still, the world is cruel to women in many ways
Killing in war zones
Kidnapping for rape
Discrimination in society
The pain is endless
Unless we unite as one human and one planet
And keep humanity at the centre
The suffering of women will continue

Let's respect every woman on this planet
And raise our voice against any injustice done to her
Till every woman
Feels safe and secure
Recognised and rewarded
The world is still a dark place to be

Women's Day is not a one-day celebration
It should be a lifelong celebration, because she is the one
Who gave us the life we are breathing now
