Our dreams are melting like ice cream,

Which they are holding in their hands.

And you are all hiding your heads,

Like ostriches in the sands.

In our lethal situations, you all say

You are keeping your eyes.

And here, we are losing not only our dreams and hopes but also our eyes.

Losing all our dreams, hopes, and even respect,

To survive, some of us are selling our daughters.

Even knowing this, they will be treated like animals in the slaughters.

With all due respect,

Downing our heads,

We have a question for all of you so-called superpowers.

With raising heads in the future, will you still talk about women to empower?
