I am paralysed by happy shocks
Knowing I could a factory buy many stocks
Thanks to this fertilizer you’ve given to this cause
II
The dream of women being their own shades
Through the trees of their pockets
Umbrellaring their own in nursing great
Protecting their young from needing so cruel
Would be realized thanks to you
III
This seed you’ve watered
This land you’ve fertilized
Will do all it can, even the impossible
To grow goodness
Making sure its fruits fall in right seasons
To nourish the hungry and strengthen the weak
IV
Yes, fear stares from all corners
Yes, failure taunts from all snaking roads to the success mountain I see
But nothing will prevent us from shedding the sweats to appear clean at the top
Because you’ve cancelled failure with your grand deed
V
Yes!
Greatness awaits
A world of feminine independence
Placed in capable heads
