I am a Muslim girl
Feel free to ask me why
When I walk
I walk with dignity
When I speak
I do not lie
I am a Muslim girl
Not all of me you'll see
But what you should appreciate
Is that the choice I make is free
I'm not plagued with depression
I'm neither cheated nor abused
I don't envy other women
And I'm certainly not confused
Note, I speak perfect English
On cheeks with dimples jolly
Am studying for communications
So one need not speak slowly
Some often stare as I walk by
And don't understand my veil
But peace and power I have found
As I am equal to any male!
I am a Muslim girl
So please don't pity me
For God has guided me to truth
And am supported by my family
