My Rights

I stood up for my rights.
My rights demanded
The life of universal acceptance
And the life of universal recognition.

I stand up for my rights.
My rights demand
My heart’s cry and my life’s smile.

I shall stand up for my rights.
My rights shall demand
The surrender-moon
From the world of aspiration-sun.
