BBC Somali theme music

[Fabregas]

M.M.I, is Djibouti also part of Somalia?

Some say the musical composition is based on Caraweelo's original, historical musical folk. I don't believe this crap, since I don't even believe Caraweelo existed iskaba dhaaf wax muusiga loo garaacee.

 

You had, however, just given me an idea: To download and save it as a ringtone. The cell phone's usual ringtone is the beautifully composed

.

 

The theme was probably written by a non-Soomaali, though solely intended for Biibiisii Soomaali. It is also a theme that instantly conjures up a recognition by the vast majority of Soomaalis. It also evokes out some childhood memories, men galab casariya ah shaah cabaayo, just before maqrib, waiting to listen Biibiisii at countless biibatooyin in Soomaaliya.

Correction and Clarification. The old theme music for BBC Somali Service called Socodkii Arraweelo belongs to Cabdillahi "Qarshe"(AUN). Maybe the name Qarshe chose for the song might be the source of some confusion, but your suggestion it was not done by a Somali is absolutely dumbfounding.

 

Btw, and while i'm it, I bet you don't know who penned words to the original version of Soomaaliyeey Toosoo. I'll give one clue; it was NOT written by an Italian Fascist as claimed by some contributors to SOL.

 

 

 

Barnaamajka 1993kii lagaga duubay Telefishanka Jabuuti ee RTD-da, ayaa Cabdillaahi Qarshe lagu weydiiyay Miyuusigga furitaanka ee BBC-da oo uu curintiisa lahaa, waxaanu yidhi:

 

“Aad baan u jeclahay in aan fikraddaa dadka gaadhsiiyo. Markii BBC-da la samaynayay 1957kii waxaan anigu ka shaqaynayay Radio Hargeysa. Waxaan ahaa ‘Broad-caster, musician’ iyo heesaa. Markaa waxay BBC-du na soo weydiisatay in aanu u soo samayno codad ay Idaacadda iyo barnaamajyada ku furaan. Markaa kolley shucuur waddaninnimana waa ay ku jirtay, markaa heestaas oo midho lahayd ayaan u geeyay. Markaa haddaan midhihii raaciyo ma ay qaateen, sidaa daraaddeed ayaan ugu bixiyay codkan ‘Socodkii Arraweelo’; heestaasina waxay ahayd:

“Dadkaan dhawaaqayaa,

Dhulkooda doonayaa,

Hadday u dhiidhiyeen,

Allahayow u dhiib,”

source

Laga bilaabo heesta ardayda dugsiyadu qaadaan ilaa muusigga ay ku soo gasho Laanta Af-Soomaaliga ee BBC London. Intaba, Cabdullaahi Qarshe wuxuu ahaa qof ku dhex nool.

Xataa wuxuu joogay oo wax ka dabaaldegay xafladdii Kasmo, 3 Abriil 2007.

Fanaanka weyn, Axmed Naaji Sacad, wuxuu munaasabaddii dabaaldegga Abaalmarinta Wargeyska Kasmo, ka dhex qaaday hees Cabdullaahi Qarshe tiriyo tii ugu dambeysay; waa heesta

‘Gumownayeey’

ka soo qoray maalmo ka hor geeridiisa.

Markii Axmed Naaji heeskaas qaaday, dadkii xafladda dabaaldegga joogay, sidii in Cabdullaahi Qarshe soo galay goobta, ayaa xushmeynta iyo weyniintiisa loo wada joogsaday, waxaana dadka qaarkood indhahooda ku hubaa in ay ‘lmo’ ka soo qubatay.

Qarshe, qofka dadnimadaas leh, markii iigu horreysey iyo halkii aan ku bartay toona ma xusuusto. Waxaanse xusuustaa galab aan soo galay ‘Aqalka BBC-da ee Bush House’. Halkan waxaa Laanta Af-Soomaaligu ku soo gaba-gabeyneysey barnaamij ay ku xusaysey 40-Guurada ka soo wareegtay markii iyada la aasaasay.

BBC-du, 40kaas sanoba waxay ku gaardinaysey socodka Arraweeladii la sheegay in ay xilliyo hore ka talin jirtay dalka maanta lagu magacaabo Soomaaliya. Taas oo dib noogu soo noolaatay markii Cabdullaahi Qarshe laxan iyo muusig ugu sameeyey habkii ay u socon jirtay boqoraddu!

Ingiriisku ‘colaadda’ uu u qabo Soomaali, malaha, waxaa looga tilmaan qaadan karaa Laanta Afka Soomaaliga oo yeersata ‘turubada’ socodkii Arraweelo, oo eelkii rag iyo dumar ay kala gelisay ilaa maanta taagan yahay.

Arrintani waxay dib inoogu celinaysaa, Sanadkii 1988, markii aan Cabdullaahi Qarshe kula kulmay qado loogu sameeyey magaalada Nairobi, Aqalka Danjirihii Soomaaliya u fadhiyey Kenya, Axmed Sheekh. Waxay ahayd qado maamuuska iyo weynenta Qarshe, darteed loo sameeyey.

Waxaa sharaf ii ahayd in martiqaadkaas la igu casuumay, waxaana markii la qadeeyey, aan Cabdullaahi Qarshe warsaday, bal haddii uu na maqashiin karo miraha heesta ay muusikadeeda ku soo gasho Laanta Af-Soomaaliga ee BBC London.

Markuu soo kala rogtay Gamankii uu caanka ku ahaa, ayaan Qarshe warsaday waqtigii iyo munaasabadii heesta la curiyey? Jawaabtii Qarshe sidan ayey ahayd:

“Waxay ahayd magaalada Hargeysa, xilligii Britain gumeysaneysey Waqooyiga Soomaaliya. Markaas gumeysigu wuxuu caburin jiray Gumeysi-diidka Soomaalida. Heesta: ‘Dadkaan dhawaaqaya, Dulkooda doonaya, Hadday u dhiidhiyeen, Allahayow u dhiib’.

Sharqanta heestaas markii Ingiriisku maqlay, wuxuu u yeeray Abwaanka oo uu caddayn ka warsaday waxa heestu ku saabsan tahay? Wuxuu ugu jawaabay:

“Waa Socodkii Arraweelo ‘Arrawelo March!”

.

Socodkaas oo ay ilaa maanta ku jirto.

Hase ahaatee, BBC-du in ay xuquuqda alifidda u ogolaatay Cabdullaahi Qarshe iyo in ay booli ku haysato oo ay wax ka soo bililiqaysatay maskaxda Soomaalida, markii Ingiriisku wax ka gumeysanayey; mid ay tahayba baaritaan kuma aanan sameyn. Haddiise Cabdullaahi Qarshe helay faa’iidada allifaha, markaas Abwaanku wuxuu noqon lahaa qof ka mid ah kuwa ugu hodansan Fanaaniinta Qaaradda Afrika.
