Once I was a Zero and now I am a Hero.

My name is Happy Tule, but people call me troll and fool!
Perhaps I have never gone to any school!!

All the day I spend my time with sheep,
After tired day, I will have a lonely sleep!!

I hardly knew anything, except helping anyone who comes to me!!
One day a gang came and asked me to help them in breaking lock of a temple to save god from a falling tree!!

I thought I was saving God, but the gang flee with silver and gold! 
People in the town beaten and thrashed me; to recover the amount, all my property was sold!!

I was left with nothing and I am hardly fit for anything! 
Thus decided to end my life by jumping off a lofty thing!!

I'm all the way myself on to a hilly road!
Everything looks like a zigzag code!!

I feel so scared on the edgy turn!
Thus I tightly hold my hands and watch the turn with a concern!!

Everything is so small when I look down!!
But there lies a beautiful town, where I have grown!!

I am up on top of the hill!
Only to kill myself along with my will!!

I closed my eyes, took deep breath and jumped off a cliff like a floating bird!!
After I fell into a river, saved by a brave old man and was sent to the hospital ward!!

The man asked me, why was I dying?
I said all the story of mine and thus told him there's nothing left for me enjoying!!

The man laughed and told me that "Even a zero is nothing when is put to the left of the numbers, only when it is put on the Right side, it has immense price. "
Then I got enlightened and realized that " from now on-wards I would think twice and act in wise"

Now I went back to my town with full of confidence!!
I was barred and asked to prove my innocence!!

I thought twice and sketched a plan and told the villagers that "other day God has appeared in-front of me and gave me this talking Hen"!
I said give me one night, tomorrow morning this Hen will talk and will catch all the thieves when count to ten!!

I cleverly arranged a cage in the open den, along with the Hen and I waited there hiding in a tree!
Having heard this story of talking hen, the town head came to the den to kill the hen, but was caged while he was going in a hurry!!

Thus the real thief was caught and a lesson was taught!!

"Once I was a Zero and now I am a Hero"

Voice of a woman:

"Every Girl is a Nation's worthy Pearl"

It's believed that Mother's womb is the safest and warmest place,
but now its revealed that for a girl like me even that safest place lacks space;
Whether a boy or a girl, does it really makes a case?
Now please stop this mad race and show us some grace.

In the present day India, it's a reality,
that for a girl there's always a partiality.
You believe education for a son is an essential utility,
and for me it's just a formality.
When it comes to marriage, you feel like I am a liability and
Your son is a prosperity.

Any crime happening on a girl, you say the whole problem is with the dress,
but the real problem lies with people's mindset and if it is properly addressed there's a way for a women's progress;
Nevertheless,
now I secure myself with pepper spray bottles and coupled with active NGO services.

My request to all the people

"I don't need too much of security,
which reminds me that I am always in insecurity;

I don't need to be treated like a princess,
It would be enough if you stop these ugly abuses.

Finally I don't need stylish words like empowerment,
What I need is a proper and active government".
