Little sister of my own

LITTLE SISTER OF MY OWN

A little girl, bright and well behaved

For a companion she really craved 

For a little sister of her own

Toys many but no one to play with

Friends many who had a sibling fifth

She too wanted a little sister of her own

"Why don't I have one?", she asked her mother

Prayed to god every night, not for a brother

But to give her a little sister of her own

They say God indeed works in mysterious ways

Soon her mother was expecting to everyone's amaze

She was excited to have a little sister of her own

The family elders were biased and wanted a boy

They were traditional and didn't know a girl's joy

But she strongly wanted a little sister of her own

She didn't care for their hopeless opinion

She wasn't going to become their minion

She wanted to have a little sister of her own

She dreamed of all the games she would play 

And all the fun she would have everyday

When she had a little sister of her own

She counted the days until she would see her

It was her strongest known desire ever

To have a little sister of her own

When it was finally time, she was against the elders

But with a smile, the gods answered her prayers

She was blessed with a little sister of her own

She felt on top of the world and was overjoyed

The elders wept with grief and were deeply annoyed

Her wish came true to have a little sister of her own

It felt like a magical power of the universe

She couldn't believe this miracle did traverse

She finally had a little sister of her own!
