An homage to Daamini
Oh my daughter Daamini!
With the heart that never became so heavy,
With the eyes which never shed so many tears,
I pay my respects to your soul,
I inscribe your name in my mind.
I pray, your death may change the course of history,
I pray, the nation may wake up from its slumber,
I pray, your horrors may save the women’s honour ,
I pray, the rape and crime may be buried for ever.
