Women abuse



I could hear a crying out loud voice
Roaming around the street
Ele mosadi a baleya his abusive boyfriend
Because she was beating her up
She was covered of blood
And her body and face was full of bruises
O na ikopela thuso
Ohh the poor women
Tsatsi le leng le leleng ha moratuwa wa hae a bo jele kapa a halefile
O natla meya ho batla sebaka seo aka iphehlang moo sona
Because she knew she was gonna be beaten up
Sometimes her boyfriend
Could come home late
And start beating her up for nothing
O natla morwaka
A mobitse ka mabitso bitso
A mo utlwise bohloko
But his girlfriend stayed
Even though she trieds to arrest him
O natla ka dijo , kapa a ikopele maitshwarela
Amo tshepise hore he'll never lay a hand on her ever again
But after he has been forgiven
O natla gutlela tseleng tsa hae tse sa lokang
and he was gettinv worse and worse
Because she could beat her in public
Undress her infront of their neighbours
A mo bue hampe
A diye serithi sa hae jwalo ka mosadi
Sometimes she could ask his wife to sleep with her , if his wife disagreed he could accuse her of cheating and force her to sleep with him
But her wife never reported him because o na morata mme a tshepa hore moratuwa wa hae o tlo fetoga
But she was being abused physically , mentally and emotionally
But she stayed hobane o nasa batle bana ba hae ba hole basena ntate
Many women stay in an abusive relationship for the sake of their children
And which is wrong
You cant stay in a relationship where you know you are not safe
That tomorrow you might wake up dead
And here is a small message to men
Women are the gifts from god
The resist loneliness of men
Or ke hore haba kgone ho ikemela or haba gone go itwanela
so tshwanetse le ba tlhekefetse
Tshwane tse re emise tlhekefetso
before it causes more death
Before there is no women left
Hare sebedisane hamoho
To take abuse away
Imagine life without them if we killed them
I belive every childs needs a mom
So men , amadoda
Let's protect the women of this nation
Please become the greatest husbands or boyfriend to them
They have the right to live tomorrow
So lets stop abuse
And never lay a hand on them
And lets protect them , respect them
And love them
