deepika pal - GIRL

I try to fly high
but I cannot
don't knw why
may because I am a girl
tied in many relationships
I am a sister, mother, daughter
but don't know why
can't I only be a girl
and have identity of my own
don't know why
being a girl can't
I touch the height of sky
why can't I fly high
let me be a girl, myself
be what I am
and wanted to be
not a sister, daughter of someone
for my whole life
can't I only be me, myself, a girl
who try to fly high
in this huge open sky
this is my question from you all
why there are tears in the eyes
when instead of son
a daughter is born
why she is captured in
all the relationships
whenever she try to fly high
in the open high sky
and try to tough the sky
can't she have identity
of her own and live her life
in the way she want? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
