Xiin Waaq is the Oromiya word for God. It's equivalent in the Somali language is ilaahay, and it's Arabic equivalent is Allah. "Waaq" doesn't signify any special diety, it just means "God". Your God, my god, anyone's god in the same sense that our "ilaahay", while meaning Allah when describing Muslims, can also describe the worship of pagans and other gaalos, i.e ilaahooda, ilaaheeda, ilaahiisa. Now on the other hand, the word Ayaan, one of our favorite names for the female sex, does actually describe an ancient cult God for the Oromos. Ayaana, as it was called, would be equivalent to Laata and Cuza. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xiinfaniin Posted August 16, 2005 Thanks HA. That is very definite linguistic justification for the usage of the word. Awalba inaad dadka ka weyneyd waan ogaa . May be Jamaal was referring to you when he offered helping arbiter in this regard . BUT I still happen to think using it signifies some thing pre-Islamic of sort specially when it is used in the context of which it has been used in this case. Guuleedyare ma inaan kuusoo baxaad rabtaa? saaxiib. Maad aayartid affarreyda dee! :mad: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

xiinfaniin Posted August 18, 2005 It has been a cherished nomadic tradition that one abstains from using his literary power against his fellow female nomads. To do so was a free fall from the literary seat and a conquering self-defeat that could lie to rest all the literary talents of the said person. I sense some parallels in this thread. And though the limping and floppy poems of little guuleed could hardly grant him any seat in the nomadic literature his attempt, nevertheless, to mark some scores evoked my sleepy (though some times lethal) gabay. The irony is the man is so beginner in this regard that he could care less than what I write and probably won’t be (he won’t even feel, I dare say) injured by its piercing. Such novice shouldn’t threaten the Qalanjo of SOL after all. Guuleed anshaxi waa ka tegey iyo gabay asluubeede Wuxu nagu asqaysiinayaa waa eray xumaaneedee Gabdhaheenna wada ugubsan ee wada ilwaadaaya Sida ubax udgoon iyo carfoon lagu ikraameeyeey Ashqaraar kuwan wada ifee qurux ashaashoobey Ardaagaan kuwii nuuriye yara iftiimeeyey Kulligeen kuwaan eeganee sheeda ka arkoonay Inuu haatan maaguu rabaa oo edabdarroodaaye Awliyada Ilaahay ninkii maaga la inkaarye Arladdaan Ilaahay wasacay ee aadanuhu buuxshey Haddaan ogohay guuleed halkuu edeg-saduu jiifo Sow uma direen aalad aan yara astaameeyeey Anoo dhaawac iimeysan iyo aafo-belo geysan Sow maan eryeen tan iyo oomasoor qarafah! Afartaa intii Nuune iyo eray Jamaal-eed dheh Baashiyo afkaartiisiyo middii oday Ngong-aad dheh Erayadii Bishaariyo Hibiyo hadal ikhyaareed dheh Odoygii ardaagaan iyo haluu Faarax soo urushey Iclaan gaaara,ogeysiis iyo arrin xukuumaad dheh. Afar kalena waa .......... Should need be, I would add few instructing stanzas so the beginner should be kept in check and his tenderfoot nature in the literature frontier remain exposed. P.S: Guuleed-yare cantara baqashka waa naga deyn-waayey marakan in odoyaashu gabyaan baa gar noqotay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lol Posted August 18, 2005 Xiin The females can surely take care of themselves........but your defense is acknowledged and appreciated.. The qalanjo of SOl as u refer to me blushing already still stands tall. I hope my poor attempt to defend myself with this so called beginner will inshallah make him refrain from every attempting to make a sister shake! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
