Youre so beautiful
I love you so much!
Give us our respect
give us our freedom
give us our basic human right
Give us our space!
From tiny, tiny little bubbles
Brought up in the cradle of comfort
We grew up to be faced
with our worst enemies
of violation
exploitation
We listen to stories
of victims
the unknown
the unheard
the unsung
and together
we made this platform
to voice these stories
throught music,
dance
and theater
Today,
we come together
as
space
The first song
we're going to sing
for hundreds and thousands of women
who're subject to domestic violence
everyday of their lives
we pray to goddess "kaali"
to give them the strength
to fight back
Let's take you to Kaali's forest
Hail goddess Kaali
A defining silence
surrounds my soul
I walk past through it
and the wonderness of this whole
this whole has around it
only trees and beasts
Im in that forest
The spirit of the vultures
is in me
(ode to the goddess kaali)
Hail goddess Kaali
(prayer to goddess kaali)
Its me and its ME
that was all I'll have
After all these years
you ruined our union, i wished you would die
you made my smile and most of the cry
and now I'm walking
walking to reach somewhere
that place I'm told
is a place where you lie
obstacles in the way
there are none
all the trees and beasts are with me once
deep in that forest
where you're brave
peacefully lay
its me and its ME
What I found, I have
I din't deserve it
after all these years
was hit by the violence
there was blood on my bed
so I killed you sweet baby
sweet baby
and now youre dead
From domestic violence
we're going to take you somewhere
to some fields in north India
another severe social problem
honour killings
forced arranged marriages
does it ring a bell?
god forbid
if I fall in love,
I might be hunted and shot to death
with my lover of course
love is for bed in
you have to marry
you have to marry the son of our choice
lets take you to one such household
in one small city of northern India
Mummy Papa!
Wohoo
Hey!
Guess what?

Never had I thought
That I'd come to this world
and after coming to this world
I'd get stuck like this
Like a bird in the sky

a world of no questions, no answers to fear
a life without choice
that why we're here
