Remember the time when you were in hands of beasts,
Remember when your body was no more than  a  feast!
Remember  when the souls were buried with the dead,
Remember  when there was no wisdom in the.. .heads!
Remember the time when the hearts were  stone hard,
Remember the time when  the chastity, had no guard!
Remember the time when you strangled all your sighs,
Remember when all the tears dried out in your eyes!

Then,

Remember when SOMEONE held fast your...trembling hands,
Remember from your grave,  you were pulled out on the land!
Remember that you were dressed with the clothes of dignity,
Remember a veil was drawn....... over the gaze of impurity!
Remember the revolution....that  you brought into the world,
Remember how motherhood ,.. shapened straight ,the curled!
Remember how you made the human out of the....... animals'
Remember how you  created a society out of ......a jungle!

Now !

You  prefer the death over the life you were blessed with,
You forgot.....to wear the clothes your were dressed with!
You left all the  modest values aside ,..copying  the West,
You forgot your  very own self ,.... the pure,.. the best!
Go and search for the coffin you left  beside your grave !
And wear that  shame  to be alive,if you really are brave!
Don't forget the lessons of history ,.... O woman of East!
Don't try to make,out of yourself , a feast for the beasts!
