The sorrow and suffering of Kurdish girls
cannot be told in a hundred stories
From the ranks of humanity, they have been driven away
lower than animals, weak and incurable
Until the age of fifteen, just like a servant
They are forced to toil on the plains and the outdoors
Then when it is time for the demands of marriage
Quickly she is betrothed according to the terms of Sharia
Either she is conquered in exchange for much property
Or she is captured, exchanged, woman for woman
she is given away to a filthy or old man
without opportunity, she is forced and hastily given away
her nineteenth century is pitiful
Though in Sharia law she is said to be free
Those who so disobey
in heart's sorrow they become mad and filled with fury
As long as they are girls, they are flawless and blameless
When married, they become subhuman
For every girl who suffers wrongdoing
Let the responsibility lie with father and brother
Whoever marries her, again
persecutes her until the day of judgement
