A girl can be Thatcher Margaret
What she wants, she can get
She can be Madam Curie
With her scientific fury
She can be a surgeon of brains
Can alleviate people’s pain
She can be an architect
What she desires, she can get
She can be Kiran Bedi, a cop
She can be on top
She can climb mountains, she can climb hills
She can go higher still
She can be a judge
Be she Indian, English, African or Dutch
She can be Ash, a film star
She can go very far
She can be a solicitor
If her circumstances aren’t bitter
Her zeal makes it evident
She can be an Indian President
She can be Enid Blyton, Agatha Christie
Enthral us all with her mysteries
Alas she can be taken advantage of
Of her potential she can be robbed
If opportunities constantly knock at her door
She can be this, that and more
She can be anything at all
Not just a lovely, insecure doll
Boundaries cannot inhibit her
The world cannot limit her
