A choice to be happy
A choice to be me
A choice that has set me free
Free from ignorance
Free from blame
A choice is what I have made
A choice to believe
A choice to stand tall
A choice to be judge
From the only One
A choice of free will
Which no one can shove
A choice between the Almighty One and me
This choice you see
Has set me free
This hijab I wear
A Choice I bear
It sets me free
From society
I cover my hair
That choice is for me
I don't need acceptance
From society
I am not oppressed
Society is
They choose for you what you should be
But I choose to be who I want to be
Why is nun showered with respect?
And Muslim women looked down on with reject
We choose to cover, that is our choice
But why the difference, we choose the same path
It is not up to you to judge our rule
It's a choice that only one can make
A choice for God is all it takes
A choice to be liked for my mind is all
A choice to be accepted for how I stand tall
A choice to stand with this flag I bear
A choice to represent honesty, and respect
A choice to stand with integrity in hand
A choice to be heard for my words and actions
A choice I have chosen that truly sets me free
I don't need your opinion; it's solely up to me
A choice to be known for whom I am
Not to be liked, for a strand of hair
A choice to be whom I choose to be
I choose to be a proud Muslim
I choose to represent the beauty of Islam
A choice that was solely all my own!
