[INTRO]

Maafkan saya
Forgive me

[VERSE 1]

Little Lily,
I’m sorry for everything.
If you weren’t born,
then you wouldn’t have to suffer.

[PRE-CHORUS]

你的身體不是你的（不是你的）
你的選擇不是你的（不是你的）
人的自由從來都不屬於我們（什麼是你的？什麼是你的？）

Your body is not yours (Not yours)
Your choice is not yours (Not yours)
Freedom was never ours (What’s yours? What’s yours?)

[CHORUS 1]

This world is not ready for you
This world is not ready for you

Rise from the mud
Bloom out of darkness

Rise from the mud (出淤泥而不染)
Bloom out of darkness

Rise from the mud (出淤泥而不染)
Shine into the world

[VERSE 2]

Little Lily,
Oh please would you forgive me?
For not stopping them,
I’m just another woman

[CHORUS 2]

Girls just want to have fundamental human rights
Girls just want to have fundamental human rights

[BRIDGE]

Social equality and justice
Fair representation, opportunity
Body positivity, no violence

[OUTRO]

Would you fight for human rights?
