There once was a girl
A young Kenyan girl
She had a wound so deep
Innocence she could not keep
She hung her head in shame
She had been given a different name
Swallow and hold onto the pain
And pray one day the rain
Will wash away her tears
As days roll into years
There once was a girl
A young Kenyan girl
