FGM must be abolished in all over the world. It is not culture it is crime.

Women ululated and clapped
As they played cultural dance
Some of them danced merrily
Others gyrated in their waists

With a bag slinging in her shoulder
An old lady appeared on the scene
A young girl was brought right after
As the room nearly cracked with laughter

With a razor a painful cut had started
Little Fowzia was mutilated and stitched
No one had paid heed to her screams
Never her teardrops had wetted hearts

Just a day after that evil performance
The girl has been seized up by cramp
She felt an ache in her internal being
Pain has made the girl almost lifeless

With tightened muscles and glassy eyes
Fowzia's disease was diagnosed as a tetanus
Six days later she became an obituary
Tetanus death statistics increased by one

Unsterilized equipment was the cause of death
The practice should stop once and for all
No nation can afford unnecessary loss of life
Children are the future of the world
