Save The Girls, Not The Afghan Honor
It is appalling but a reality
Sometimes it makes us sick
To witness such human cruelty
So disgusting it defies logic.
This culture of social injustice
On innocent Afghan girls
Must be cut, totally abolished
Outlawed by the whole world.
Beating them up and maiming
When they refuse the marriage bond
Is beyond abuse that's sickening
It destroys the young of the land.
Young girls who refuse are killed
As the despicable fathers reason
It's a dishonor to him fulfilled -
What a warped culture he relies on!
