Dear woman, I see you there, looking disgusted and visibly shaken
People telling you how you ought to be and with so many rules you are laden
From the ones in their veils to the ones in their tees
No one is spared; all women have this ‘moral police’ to please!
If women are to be chaste then aren’t men supposed to be too
Delhi isn’t hell’s bullring; Indian society is sick with ‘woman flu’!
Conservatives have to be quashed; liberal thinking is the sole route ahead
The globe's the benchmark and the global path we ought to tread
Women aren’t rag dolls or helpless ants to be squished with disdain
Get those weapons in your purses and show men what it is like to be in pain.
If you feel unsafe and don’t trust the system, don’t be the duck so lame
Use sticks and spray, late at nights, those unruly beasts, you too can tame!
Be the one you set out to be girl, give nothing about realms of society
You are independent, you are your judge, and no one can question your sanctity.
Girl, neither Delhi nor Siliguri can stop you. You are educated and you are smart.
While out there against them, remember to defend yourself with all soul and heart.
A woman must be confident she can defend herself; men must be scared they can be chopped
Every woman has the right to roam whenever and wherever she wishes to, that freedom from her cannot be robbed.
