Child labour
Is not a favour
It's just the exploitation of their childhood
Only to live ones luxurious livelihood
Little ones are deprived of school
In order to make our stomach full
Child is forced into begging, prostitutions
Just for family's expectations and traditions
Increased family income
Could one's stop this outcome
Education could earn them a living
To be happy as a human being
Fertility control is another option
To relieve burden from next generation
Why can't we stand out and stop
Giving everyone a ray of hope
Let each one of us be a part
And broke this tradition apart
