Can somebody hear me?

Will I ever see the light?
When I sleep, it is dark; it is night
And I always hope that when I wake up, all will be bright
Will I ever know what is called white?

I move, I feed, I breathe, Oh! I have life
Since the first day I was formed here, after I won the strive,
I started growing from a cell, just like every living thing came alive
But like flowers, I hope I won't soon be cut down by a knife

Everyday I hear words that reverberate and thunder
They make me shiver and wonder:
"This shame is too much … this baby also has to go. It is a mistake", says mother
Only hate, abortion, murder is in her mind, no other

And today, the partner in crime is here
The shouts of the big for nothing bully goat is all I could hear
When he got to know about me and I have been engrossed in sadness and fear
I am unwanted and I will never be anyone's dear

I'd like to join the other babies I hear playing around and go to school
Learn maths and history and I won't be a fool
Play "hide and seek " and splash water at others in the pool
Act like a superstar and sing in front of other children and feel so cool

I'd like to go to the university and study
Fulfill my dreams and have a good and happy family
Enjoy life, travel around the world and be a good representative of my country
And assist the needy with some money

But now, the monster rabbit is here with soft words "Dear, you will be fine"
Where are we going now? I feel something terrible is about to happen, I can see the sign
The car has stopped, we are walking, oh! It smells like a hospital now and it is just nine
"Be calm, dear, you can do this" says this wicked devil, who is always drunk with wine

The doctor, nurses … and now, we are in the operating theater, laid on the bed
Metal curette, syringe and other instruments, all on the table they are spread
My life, my dreams, my hopes will soon be gone and I will soon be dead
Can somebody please stop them? Oh, they still want to do it after all I have said?

Please, mother, I will be a good child, please, don't do this
You will give me a good name like Chris
I will not be any problem to you and you will always give me your good night kiss
And when I grow up, I won't stay out late and party, so my presence you won't miss

Oh Father, I am sorry for calling you bad names
Please, want me, want me, I am begging you, Mr. James
I will be your best buddy and we will play together your favorite games
He does not even care... oh! My body is hot; it is like I am in flames

Ah ah ah I can now feel so much intense pain
They are pulling my limb out with so much strain
Who can save me from this slain?
Can someone please hear my cry, it should not be in vain

Where are my grandparents and my relations?
Where is the government and the religious organisations?
No one really cares about the cry of an unborn child and his lamentations
But like every other person, I have life, emotions, hope and expectations

Dear God, I know that only you can hear my innocent cry
You know the unbearable pain I feel now and my impotence
And only you can save unborn infants from man's wickedness
This is the travail that aborted children go through before they die
