"I am a girl!", Mama shouts with joy
When she hears the valor of
Rani Lakshmi Bai.
"I am a girl!", Mama shouts with buoy
When she hears the spirit of
Malala Yousafzai.
"I am a girl!", Mama shouts with zeal
When she hears the service of
Florence Nightingale.
"I am a girl!", Mama shouts with glee
When she hears the resolve of
Marie Curie...
Mama hears about great women everyday;
On each great woman, shouts she
Proud, glad, and gay.
She vows to be a great woman one day,
And prove that a girl is greater
Than a boy.
