In my live, all my dreams came true.
My mum gave me the name Sultana what means princess. I gave myself the name Shaheen. This is in the Urdu language connected with an imaginary bird. If it flies over your head, you become a queen.

I dream that my mum and dad have their own house. Now it is already the 3rd house that we moved place. I miss my friends every time we move. We are originally from Rajahmundry about 600km from Hyderabad. Now we moved into the HS Darga area for the second time.

If I have some food every day and some money, then I can sleep and I’m happy. Until now I was never ill. Sometimes I have a cough and some joint pain and pain in my legs but I can still go out for begging.

I want one day my own house where I can live with my husband and my 2 children. I live now in the house of my uncle. I want to give my children a good future and a good education. I want that they have a nice job, different than mine.
