Story Behind The Song:
  I am alone; no one is there to help me. This is a voice of a helpless child who is expressing grief at heart. It depicts that the most appalling poverty is loneliness and the feeling of being isolated and uncared. Akaila Hu main, is composed for the International Conference on the Community based empowerment of vulnerable children. A beautiful heart touching melodious song Akaila Hu Main is sung by Jimmy Atray and written by Abid Ali. Picture Gallery
This song depicts the feeling of every lonely and helpless child whose eyes are waiting for help. The soul of this song and conference is to highlight the issues of most vulnerable children. For this   purpose, Helping Hand tried to locate the troubles of children, their problems and their needs.  The primary interest is to help the helpless and the most deserving children with the help of community; we can find much more ways to protect these kids from thorns of life

Allah has given human beings the advantage of wisdom to explore ways to protect the suffering humanity. Children are the flowers of heaven; they are innocent souls and called the beauty of this world. These kids are the future assets of any country. They get education now, serve the nation later and contribute in making it in a developed country. A child dreams of getting everything in this world whatever Allah has bestowed human beings with. The most exhilarating thing for the children is to dream about their future. They have a certain vision for their lives of becoming a doctor, teacher, lawyer, pilot, engineer etc. Mission of life is the most significant thing which makes the person able to struggle hard and achieve whatever is desired. Every child aims to be a successful human being including the vulnerable kid who also dreams for his family to have all the luxuries of life, social security, justice and a good standard of living. This is a responsibility of their community members somehow to let them dream for their future and maintain and increase their desires for a better future.

In the same way there exists so many kids also who do not have access to schools due to various reasons e.g. financial constraints, depression, and domestic problems etc. These children have deprivation in their eyes watching the other fortunate kids going to school and have all the entertainment of life. Some of them are breadwinners, struggling hard to support their dependants financially. They are forced to do so as they do not have any other option for survival.

Another major issue is caste system which is a big hindrance for the vulnerable children. As a species, we are social beings who spend our lives in the companionship of other humans. We organize ourselves into various kinds of social groupings, such as castes, villages, cities, and countries, in which we work, trade and interact in many other ways. Consequently, the patterns of human society differ from place to place and era to era and across cultures, making the social world a very complex and dynamic environment. Among which the different castes have different norms, cultures, traditions and values which affect small kids and restricts them to interact with each other in some way or the other. A caste system is a type of social structure which divides people on the basis of inherited social status. Children have innocent souls and no opinions of having boundaries in dealing with other children or community members. It is one of the great hindrances in their social development and leads towards insecurity.

Social security is a right of every child. In most of the communities, this right is threatened by some influential people. Children have innocent souls and are sensitive at heart. Their social security is the moral obligation for all the community members. Every child needs a healthy and positive environment to help them live pleasant life. Despite of the need of every child, this atmosphere is available to a particular class only. Many children are living their lives below the poverty line and have to face the intricate realities of this world.They have to bear the harshness of the societies backward in terms of education, culture and Islamic teachings. Most of them do not enjoy the festivities of life due to their susceptible situations as well as the traditional mindsets of their vulnerable communities.
