Unfortunate event she had,
Mother died when she was five,
She taught her to be kind, to survive,
Her father went out, She's very sad,
He came back with another wife,

Lady with her own two daughters,
He don't know, their true colors,

He needs to travel in a month,
She left her daughter, talked to her blunt,
Few months later ,
A letter from her father, he's gone forever,
Her step sisters tear off the letter,
Step mother cried to make a scene,
Talked to her like she don't have a sin,
She smiled grin,

Later she found out, there identity,

She had no choice,
Do household chores,
Obey her step mother told,
Before she get scold ,

Clean dishes and chambers patiently,
She always beside the chimney,
Sat down to cinders and ashes,
In her old rag dresses,
Slept mess, ash on her lashes,

Royal Ball from palace, Invited all misses,
Ball day came , Step mother exclaimed,
She can't go,  no shame,

As they left, She started to cry,
Her Fairy Godmother asked her,
"Whats the matter?"
"I wish I could , I wish I could"
She wasn't able to speak,
Interrupted by her tears
"You wish you can go to the ball; is it not so?"
" Yes" she said,
"I will contrive you shall go"

Pumpkin fine gold coach,
Six Mouse become horse,
Fat coachman was a rat,
Footmen, Six Lizards behind  watering pot,
Struck her wand to rag-
turn into silver and gold,
Gave her pair of glass slippers
the prettiest in the whole world,
Warned her, to return by midnight,
Would become just as they were before,
Won't forget and promised to her,

Profound silence, To beautiful unknown newcomer,
Led her most honorable seats,
She dance with him sweet ,
Admire her entirely,
No one recognize her beauty,
When she heard the clock strike,
Immediately made her courtesy,
She ran fast as she could,
Seek to her godmother ,
Heartily wish she might go next day if she would,

Her dress  magnificent than before,
King's son compliments her,
As she forgot her godmother told,
Clock strike to twelve ,
She jumped and fled ,
Clothes back to old,
Left her one pair of glass slipper,
Few days later,

Prince had proclaimed,
He would marry whose foot would fit,
Two step sister did all, to claim,
but they did not succeed,
She try to her the slipper, Indeed,
It fits to her, other slipper on her pocket,
Richer and more magnificent dress , godmother make it.

They began to begged ,
She took them up, embraced ,
Forgive them with all heart,
All she wanted always to love her,
Married to young prince, live happily ever after,
