They say, "Oh, poor girl, ur so beautiful u know
It's a shame dat u cover up ur beauty so."
She just smiles and graciously responds reassuringly,
"This beauty that I have is just 1 simple part of me.
This body that I have, no stranger has the right to c.
These long clothes, this shawl I wear, ensure my modesty.
Faith is more essential than fashion, wouldn't you agree?"
This scarf,
This mark of piety,
Is an act of faith, a symbol,
For all the world to see.
A simple cloth, to protect her dignity.
So lift the veil 4rm ur heart to see da heart of purity.

They tell her, "Girl, don't u know this is the West and you r 3?
U don't need 2 b oppressed, ashamed of ur femininity."
She just shakes her head & she speaks so assuredly,
"See da bill-boards and da magazines dat line the check-out isles,
with their phony painted faces & their air-brushed smiles?
Well their sheer clothes & low cut gowns they are really not 4 me.
U call it freedom, I call it anarchy."
