Halima Muse Milanohas another song with lyrics like this in it: Mise rucubta naasahaa hadba soo ruxaayo qosol kugu rakaadaa qosol!

I think if she wasn't beautiful (ugly-***) ... they may had still done it

Saado Cali has one where she says aniga waan ku soo dhaweeyn lahaa dhabtaan kugu qaban lahaa wadnahaa ku dhexgalin lahaa, korkaan kugu dhagsan lahaa, dhamaan kac oo dhaantada tun!! tell me that aint explict?

dabshid that is something walaahi! they say all that in public?

Birimo has one she says goormaa timid waan ku rabay gaarka iyo nafteeyda ku gama, sidaad doonto ugu galgalo -

MMA shaqshaq iyo niiko is about dancing and not that different than Qalanjo's dheesha ciyaarta waxeey dhacdaa marka la is dhex galee dhexda la is qabsadee hadba dhinac isu tuurka dhifashada gaaban aman tan cilmi iyo caado ku jirtay oo aheeyd dhuubooy dhex yareey soo dhowoow ila dheel dhaxda keen dhaqaaji garbaha .... I was talking explicit lyrics and I am sure 100% that Banaadiri songs are of such lyrics and I mentioned one with Maryan naasir. If you can remember some, it would be great. I heard Aweys Khamiis's song Nuurta jeeloow has some innuendos like when he says ...Nacnacaa hoosaan rabaa , waa noogay waa neefsahaa ..diiq maxaas yiri Kuukuuk dooro aa tiri Kiikiik!! He wants the candy and gets tired like one minute man!!! I know Xabiib Sharaabi has crazy ones. let me digg them up!

I don't think the forums will help. You need to talk to health practitioners in Somalia. I did one in school but on Japanese adult diapers and countenance business from marketing angle .

Cara -- tell us about that suul cawro sheeko please! I wanna hear it walaahi

You could have a whole book about Somali songs describing about facial features: eyes, eyebrows, lashes, noises, lips, mouth, teeth...you name it! But the subject of sex is big and sometimes we Somalis assume that it is taboo and no one talks about it but in your popular songs, fables, oral traditions, there are so much out there that people either intentionally ignore or maybe unaware of it cos they choose not to pay close attention as I did.

Ok let me put it this way ... Hibo says intaad keen aduun iyo kordhi maal is leedahay kax baan ahaye ma ogtahay? She is obviously talking to her man about his obsession with making money and she is telling him, pay attention to me. Kax baan ahay ma ogtahay? Do you know I have needs? that I am now fertile and all the woman ( ripe ) now maybe later I will get old and you will be rich but then it is too late. I won't have this sexual drive...i won't be as this beautiful and I won't be able to make babies and she knows that he, as a somali man, will take a second wife who is younger than her and that is why she is now pre-preemptively getting vocal of women needs.

You guys need to talk to these Somali abwaan people like Saciid Saalax or Cali Xasan in minneapolis. I ask them questions about Somali literature and culture. You could do a thesis on any subject. Love, revenge, hardship, loss of family member, war, clan dissing, cheating, camels, sickness, famine, religion, astronomy, Zodiac sings, space, environment... are some of the topics I am working to compile. I just choose mature and explicit stuff. These are songs, the poems are even worse. But I am gonna spare you.

andthis old guy, the legend xudeydi has a song(classic) where he says cambaruudka naasaha caarada madoow leh iyo luqunta cabaarta leh iyo cududeheediyo rucubtaa is celiyee Anyways I rest my case! Some Somali songs are quite explicit!

Faarax_Brown? this was about a chick and not geel. I can post the whole lyrics but Salaad Derbi was singing for the women he was in love with who lives in Ceelbuur. Cuddudaha gamcaha Cidayaha faraha, Ilaa cidhibta hoosiyo naaska caaradiisa Cad xun ku arki maysidee, Nuune common - post those songs u know! some songs are kind hard to understand but if pay close attention and listen to the lyrics again and again you will be surprised. I think Maryan Mursal and Hibo Mohammed may have some songs like that. maryan Musal says Ku filoow ku filoow kor iyo hoos? Hibo goes intaad keen aduunyiyo kordhi maal is leedahay kax baan ahaye ma ogtahay? you thiking about making money and I am so damn horney! I love this one she is claacaling big time for letting some guy have her beauties: Luqunteyda dheeriyo - my long neck Laafiyaha garaaraha - my hands Dhabanada labeenta leh - my creamy cheeks Midabkeyga luulka ah my pearly color Nimaan laasaneynoo - a man who want wait luflufku u macanyaanyahay - that enjoys ..... Anigaa u loogoo -Lingaaxa uga gooyee - i gave him all of that! Baacalwaan says to sahra axmed: yaa gareyska kaa fura kuu salaaxa gaadada lur jaceyl i galisee

i Knew NuurKeey. He was a very nice guy who always greeted you or give you a hug or smiled at you or nodded his head to say hi when he sees you at a distance. I remember just that night, he was at karmel handing out flyers about an event to commemorate the Somali Independence Week. His murderers already killed his brother Carte (snoop) and his cousin Hakeem (Najib) 6 months ago. Another 18 year old, Abdulahi Awil was killed two months ago. It is going crazy and people know the killers. They are all very well known but no one dares to come forward as witnesses. Every one is scarred and doesn't want to get involved. It is only about 10 guys ( all grown men) who are up to no good fighting and killing each other for something so trivial walaahi.

I am listening to this song in my ipod. It says: Anoo naaska gulacda leh gacmaheeygu gaarin goonyahoo dhan salaaxin - riya guur igu timid - originally it belongs to Abdikhadar Hassan but Abdoow Araram sings it. Then the following song was kind in there too. it is by Ahmed Mooghe Iyadoo doog dhex jiiftoo daawaneeysa ubaxaoo soow raaxo damacdayoo - She felt all comfortable durba gareeyskii furatayo - takes her clothes off Sii daaysay timihii - let her hair down And then he gets very aroused and goes. Aan is iri ma daaysaa - Do I let her be? Mise waa dugsiisaaye - just go and cuddle her? dibna ma isa saartaan - Or French kiss her? yaa dooq u heli jirayee? what a tough choice? So I thought about how many other songs with some sexual innuendos are there? I can only recall one or two. Omar Dhuule says I cantuug dibnaha oo shafka igu camcami He is not only ok with kissing but wants to go second base and god know what is next. Salad Derbi says : Ilaa ciribta hoosiyo naaska caaradiisa cad xun ku arki meeyside? Like he just examined her whole naked body! Halima Musse Milano says I don't remember all the lyrics but she says Marya dhigashadeeydii sariirta, dhibcihii sunta ahaa.... when she naked in bed and those sperms ...that got her pregnant... out of wedlock or something like that... Maryan Nasir says Ila joog jilbahaa i saar ..ii la jiifee jano waaye manii i jeclaatidii ... she is telling him to stay with her, put her on his lap, sleep with her and it is gonna be like heaven! Kuusoow Kuntuwaareey - I am not good at Maay language but he says in the song ... Naaso taagtaaganeey!! Binti Cumar Gacal goes Wiilkii isha iigu baaqay, wiilkii bogga ii salaaxay he winked and caressed her boobies! Do you guys know other songs that are like these?

Good point Cabdiyo: We discussed the inheritance, wealth and property angle of this and how it is not fair to the kids but still they do it and it goes on. And in my probing of what people think, I came across many who not only defend but strongly believe in it. And I do know some who have gone through it. I will have to be brave enough to ask them of what they think.

You may have heard of this or familiar with it: Dumaashi - or so and so is my dumaashi...seedi is another case! But let us talk about the Dumaal institution itself. it is first or second cousin to the institution of marriage. Here are some examples and scenarios to really understand the complexities of Dumaal and I must admit this Dumaal thing made me think and think, reflect and reflect ......I am still as confused as hell and don't know what to make of it. Scenario 1 A mother of 6 children dies of... say natural cause or maybe a childbirth complications. All 6 kids are under the age of 12. After the burial, funeral, condolences are done, the families get together and the elders suggest that the husband( now a widower) should get a wife to help him raise these 6 kids and they suggest he should marry one of the sisters of his late-wife. Reason: keep it in the family and another women won't be as caring and nurturing to the (semi-orphaned) kids as the Habaryar ( which Somalis believe is 2nd mom). No thought or talk about the future kids the new family will be having plus the 6 kids they got already. The husband is not asked to practice family planning or have vasectomy. Scenario 2 A husband dies and leaves behind a wife (beautiful one )with ... say only 2 kids. After all the burials, elders again sit down and propose that the brother of the deceased hubby should marry the widow ( ex-wife of his brother). Reasoning: She is too good to get out of the family circle or fall into the hands of another man (of different lineage). No thought is given to her choices. Scenario 3 This one is little bit opposite of the first scenario but with a twist. A husband dies and leaves a wife and 6 kids. After burials, elders get together and suggest that grandmothers and aunties should help the widow (wife)to raise the kids ( all under 10). No hook-up or future marriage for her! She had been producing kids almost every year and had no rest. No suggestion for her to get a family planning or hysterectomy - removal of the uterus. is this a double standard? or something else? so ... There are pro and cons for the whole Dumaal thing and I discussed this with friends. I just want to know what you guys think of it. Is it a practical thing? is it outdated? is it right? fair? complicated? should the husband ( in the first case ) castrated so not to have dozen more kids? Is it fair to the sister? brother? the widows? to the kids? would it create a confusion when two kids have the same mother but fathers who are brothers? or the same father but mothers who are sisters? What you guys think of this. It is part of the Somali culture. Do others have it or practice it? This maybe strange to some of you but is widely practiced in Somalia, Djibouti and Somali regions in Kenya and Ethiopia. We are bit westernized here and aspects of our culture may sound like quite alien, strange and backward but Dumaal is to this day done and is growing due to the perpetual deaths of so many Somalis due to the wars and famines. The etymology of the word itself needs to be analyzed. where it is derived? ancient Somali culture or it came to us through Islam

F...Obama ...I will vote for Nader! http://www.boston.com/news/politics/politicalintelligence/2008/06/nader_critiques.html Nader told the Rocky Mountain News, in an interview published today, that Obama is trying to "talk white" and to appeal to "white guilt." "There's only one thing different about Barack Obama when it comes to being a Democratic presidential candidate. He's half African-American," Nader said in what the newspaper described as a wide-ranging interview on Monday. "Whether that will make any difference, I don't know. I haven't heard him have a strong crackdown on economic exploitation in the ghettos. Payday loans, predatory lending, asbestos, lead. What's keeping him from doing that? Is it because he wants to talk white? He doesn't want to appear like Jesse Jackson? We'll see all that play out in the next few months and if he gets elected afterwards." Asked to clarify whether he thought Obama does try to "talk white," Nader added: "I mean, first of all, the number one thing that a black American politician aspiring to the presidency should be is to candidly describe the plight of the poor, especially in the inner cities and the rural areas, and have a very detailed platform about how the poor is going to be defended by the law, is going to be protected by the law, and is going to be liberated by the law. Haven't heard a thing." "He wants to show that he is not a threatening . . . another politically threatening African-American politician," Nader said. "He wants to appeal to white guilt. You appeal to white guilt not by coming on as black is beautiful, black is powerful. Basically he's coming on as someone who is not going to threaten the white power structure, whether it's corporate or whether it's simply oligarchic. And they love it. Whites just eat it up."

This is tragic and devastating. First they killed his younger Brother Arta and now him And the retribution between Somalis in Minneapolis will go on! It must stop.

It was an emotional roller coaster to watch plus the blackouts and the lame commentators - It made me so tense and upset --- But kudos to the Turks...they should be proud of their Euro success!

Hayam sis, you have a beautiful mind! Faarax brown, got some help and overcome that "you and me know" rejection! You wouldn't have spent this much effort if I posted a picture of... say ..."si-waaq-roon" family with softer hairs and features. You know some Si-waaqis, at least those i met in Minneapolis, proudly and openly claim an Indian ancestry! That doesn't make you and other Somali neo-purists go all the way to exclude them as you doing to Somali Jareer-Weyne family! That, to me, is an indication of not only bold-faced hypocrisy and double standard, but some innate self-hate and inferiority complex! And you and I know that more than half of our Somali Maryooleey folks falsely and ignorantly claim to be from mythical Arabian saints and what you have! Are you calling them too "ethnic" Somalis too?

:confused:

Thanks to this groundswell, the top 10 public intellectuals in this year’s reader poll are all Muslim. The ideas for which they are known, particularly concerning Islam, differ significantly. It’s clear that, in this case, identity politics carried the day. This makes sense plus Americans don't read FP. If they had advertised this voting-poll in People's magazine or National Inquirer, then we would have seen many American Celebrities in the list being crowned as intellectuals.
