From the edge of nowhere

Feels like the cool wind from the North Pole

Wonder I feel so bare

With my fancy clothes on

My head is up as I walked

I knew they envied how I look

My hair as black as silk

As dark as lonely night goes

With their compliments, I should be jubilant

But why deep down, I just knew something is wrong

I felt empty and how I long

To kick up changes…Hijab I should put on

I realized my beauty is a gift

Something I should keep modest

It would be an asset

If I nurture it in the context of Islamic creed

A piece of cloth is a good start

Wrap around my head

Though it worries me for sometimes

But I knew I’m heading it right this time

They’ve asked what I have done

To suddenly change my mind

I said, this is what I am supposed to be

A role model for others…so let me be

I feel safe with my cover on

I feel humble coz I followed the road

That would earn me to be good

To my faith I should hold

Every Muslim woman shouldn’t undermine themselves

With enticing hair dress

It wouldn’t make you less

To have a headscarf…so be fearless
