For My Daughter Only

I did not bow down my head before him
For my daughter only.

I had to look into his eyes without fear and stood firm
For my daughter only.

I could not join the Band wagon and clap my hands as per his tune
For my daughter only.

I am not very moralist or brave or noble
but sometimes I have to behave like one
For my daughter only.

After all a Mother got to be Perfect for her daughter only.
