It is really sad to see him leave us specially in these bad times. He was playwright, broadcaster, anchor, talk show host, lyricist, sophisticated intellectual and above all a poet.

 

His poetry and songs were simple and urban. you were never asked to decipher some abstract nomadic concept to understand his prose. He simplified and urbanized Somali poetry to people like me.

Here is a youtube video of Abdalla Nuridin!

Who can forget the memorable words he penned?

 

Dumar kale ma caashaqin

Hadal dambe kumaan oran

Dooqaagu wuxuu rabo

Kolan daynba kuu galo

Wali diiday kuma oran

Dadku wuu dagaalaa

Dabadeed heshiiyaa

Inaad raacdo duul kale

Ma wax loo dulqaataa

In Shooli's voice, of course. And of course that ruwaayad uu alifay, Shan iyo Tobankii Shumeey

 

Eebba ha u naxariisto Marxuum Cabdalle Nuuradiin Axmed, samir iyo iimaana reerkiisa Eebba haka siiyo -- aamiin, aamiin.
