Hope for the Girl Child

Adunni be strong 

 

Adunni, my baby girl

You walk with the energy of the moon

Your light radiate with the brightness of the stars

In you lies the ecstasy of knowledge.

All were quick to cut short

Cut short from the fangs of the ruthless soul

He came like a wind and dashed your hopes away

Regardless, there lies a ray of hope.

He came like a friend

He ravished the innocency of your strength

With no iota of guilt

Regardless, the tunnel beams with light.

Adunni, my girl

The light was threatened but never put out

In it lies the strength to forge ahead

Rise and be strong for hopes beams

For the soul that desire to rise again.
