childhood, beautiful childhood
But unfortunate to little one
where childhood is hardships
Where schooling is neglected
When they are forced to work
For an earning to sustenance.
But world is now awoke for rights
The rights of childhood
Where ensuring a better life
Proper food, clothes, schooling
The noon feeding in schools
The society takes its responsibility.
Many things have to be done
Philanthropic community must awoke
Funds to be provided and amenities
Where childhood will be happier
Beyond continents and countries
The childhood is most precious.
