Mother..I Want To Be Born

Mother..I Want To Be Born

Mother, I know, why people say that love is blind…

Because I breathe in your womb and stay in your mind...

You love me, you laugh for me, you cry for me…

Although you have not seen me yet, I know that you can die for me..


Mother, I can feel your love, so light, so soft like a feather...

I am happy, I am in you, I am lucky, we are together..

When I will come in this world, you’ll welcome me by taking me in your lap.

I will play with your hair and you will kiss my forehead when I’ll take a nap.


Just the way, you love me now by not eating food without me. 

I’ll do the same when I am born, I will never let you be hungry. 

Mother… I’ve heard about dee

p blue sea, I’ve heard about the endless sky.

I’ve heard about the fishes which swim, I’ve heard about the birds that fly.

Mother, I want to feel them, mother… I want to see…

Mother, when I am born, will you introduce them to me..???


My dear mother, why did you do this to me?

I wanted to live with you, I wanted you to live with me.

Why did you kill me mother, why did you slaughter..?

Was it because I was taking birth as your daughter?

Mother, just because, I was not taking birth as your son.

You have ended my life even before it had begun…


(Female foeticide, dowry deaths, and rape…

From womb to the world - a woman is nowhere safe...)
