Sharmarkee Posted July 6, 2006 Salaan Wacan, Xiin, Deleting the tribal nonsense - Salaan was having in depth of miyi and magaalo, that is why is poems are different than others - he was seafarer,and Nomadic at the same time, and used to live different parts of the world, that give him an insight of culutral prospecive - me thinks, secondly the chances that Salaan's stanza becomes a proverb is so high. see the previous gabay "Afku wuxu la xoogyahy megliga xawda ka jara" is a good example, as as "Waxba yaany xoolana is siin xeergayna i marin - Xaashe nin libin ka xistaiyay xumihi waa yaabe" is another example Waan gartay gabaygaa: Here it's - Xaaji Xiin Lukaansi gabay Faaraxaw laaqin ma lahayne Laflafkiyo lahwiga loo tirshiyo jaray lurkiisiiye La'da xarafka laanka iyo ba'daan loyar ku ahaaye Nin awawgii loox ugu dhigoo liilgashaan ahaye Legjar Faranji niman baa akhriya laawis iyo beene Oo waliba laasima intay lib isku moodaane Ase waxan u laaqimahayaa tix ay ku luuqshaane Nin labaatan buuxsaday aduun waa lagdamayaane Hadaan anigu loofari aqiin haatan loowlabaye Nin ciradu lamaanaha dhigtoo oo laylyamaan ahaye Lixdan laba iyo toban baan dul maray waana la hubaaye Lafta dhabarka lixaadka i debciyo laafyihii gacanta Lubbigaygu leyl xalay ma ladin laadadyiyo taahe Waataa lanleemada indhaha araggu liitaaye Liiqliiqad baan ahay sidii lulo dabayleede Ma laxiibto geelaba hashi lahantay jiilaale Ku laabudan shisheeye ninkii Laxawsi moodaaye Hadba waxan lacaab riday ragbaa laastay yaradkiiye Xaqaygaan ku laacibay haday igu lihiimeene Sidaan ugu lalabay waanigaa laayacays badaye Nin laqwiyey tashigu waa ka lalay laguna leecaanye Lammaanaan xadhigi loo tidcay lugi ka toogtaaye Lufan baa ka hadha dawliskii liilsanaan jiraye Hadaan luqunta beri taagi jiray liicday adhaxdiiye Nin laboonti sheegtaba sabaan laarriyaa heliye Xaajadan laciifka ah aday ku lid noqotaaye La fil ma ahi laankiin danbaan duxi lillaynayne Laqantooyo xidid kii horaan laabta ku hayaaye Iminkaan ladhkii weli qabaa laqanyadeediiye Nin yaraan ku loofaray wuxu lumiyay raacdeeye Fardahaba libaadshaha iyo duntaa ladha abiidkoode Rag laacdamaya lool iyo rogaal leexaday is goysay boodada ma laasimo darmaan leeddo fuulihiye laanjeertidaan qabo barbaar ladani waa mooge Adigoo lamada awr leh wadin ama liggood keenin Leegleegsadaha waan necbahay laanta dheer sida'e Waar Seedaw haygu soo lug goin lahasho wa The end: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Baashi Posted July 10, 2006 Good one. Salaan Carabeey is one of my fav poets. He is a literary giant. His take on age and aging process is of a particular interest to moi. This particular gabay is very famous. Waxba yaannu xaalkay ii marin, xoolana ii siine, Xaashaaye nin libin kaa xistiyey xumihi waa yaabe! Right on! Kashafa, this particular poem is about brother-in-law who came to poet's home for handout. In nomadic tradition in-laws are accorded to special treatment. Salaan is complaining about old age and low funds to do right for this particular in-law as he has done throughout especially in the heydays of his prime years. In the same token he is making a statement about youth indescretion. He's taking a lil dig at the young lad by saying for guns at ur age it is all about material world, getting more, and spending like no tommorow!... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sharmarkee Posted July 10, 2006 Salaam, Salaan was a brillian poet indeed, in 1945 some of his friends came to him arguing that Somalis are from Arabs, and from Arabic blood and this and that we are arabs afterall, he was in Burco at that time: He said: Burco iyo Shaam(Syria,jordan,philestine,Lebnan) Miya Daris wadaagayaa Mise aniga iyo nin iga diircadba damac-heshiinayna Mise Diin jacaylbaa midhka igu dukhuulaaya Mise Yamantan dooryaanka leh aya dad iga riixaysaa. he carried on in that way, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xiinfaniin Posted July 10, 2006 ^^Good rhetorical question @Mise aniga iyo nin iga diircadba damac-heshiinayna! Sharmarke, you are a literature repository. Caadi ma tihid saaxiib. These are good stuff. Keep it coming. Kashafa, I think good Baashi has answered your question. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sharmarkee Posted July 10, 2006 ^^ This called fasaaxatal qowl ya Xiin, Adiga iyo Baasheba waa yasaan ee meesha hanagu waalin, and by the way where is Senor Maygaag, I loved how he reviewed "Qayaash Maasha" of Xuseen Dhiqle. Salaan waas wiil hoog, it was interesting stuff when he said: Xeer beegti murantaa gartay xeeli hadashaaye Xubin rag isku waajahay haday xayga ka cadaato Raguunbaan xisaab talo aqoon xiinna loo diraye Xikaayo iyo baanaba anaan xaraf i seegayne Nin Xukaantu wada naadisoo xaabsadaan ahaye When it come to the constitutional prestigious legal instituation which is the "Geed hoostii or Shir" were men are aruging with in the legal frame work and what is wright and what is wrong -hey Am the dashing and the legal ace, so superior in that regard, and when Barristers are in short supply am the one every judged needed to have in his court. what a self-Boasting of Salaan. Xoolaha markay timi ninkaan xulayay geelayga And when it comes to wealth ... Iwas giving away my camels for your sake. Rageedii Yaa Xiin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

xiinfaniin Posted July 11, 2006 Sophistow, remember it’s a personal judgment of mine that Salaan won the Guba contest. Though Ali Dhuux admittedly played the lead role and served as its literary stud, he fell short in many critical areas of great moral concern. Salaan on the other hand, save his introductory verses, which were full of boastful extravaganza, came out as a measured and a rational fellow. Perhaps time had given him the upper hand. I gathered it was Ali who provoked him to participate in Guba when he cited Salaan’s clan in a demeaning metaphorical manner: Harraadkiyo ragggiii aan aqoon hawdka maridiisa Kolay Habar-jecliyo Ciise tahay waa ka helayaane’e Haweenkuna hadday doonayaan in hadoodaane.. And boy look how Salaan responded with a barrage of historical anecdotes decorated with his clan’s camel-wrestling success. You excel in the ceaseless sophistry, he seems to be saying to Ali, but the facts are not with you this time around. Embarrassingly you can’t affect a favorable change to the kin in whose grief you dwelled. Keep talking in vain, Salaan concludes, as angels record your banter. Haddaad ficil haraatiday asaad hiilin kari weydey Ma afkaad ku hawl bixin cidlaad ka hanjabaysaaye’e …………….. Iska hadal aakhiraba waa lama huraankiiye’e This is not to conclude that Salaan owned the literary thrown of that emotional contest but it’s to say he quelled Ali’s uncalled insults. Hence he won in that regard. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Abdulladiif Al-Fiqih Posted July 11, 2006 Xiin, Ali Dhuux was nothing but "naar afuuf" aakhirkiina waad ogtahay inuu gabeygii ka xidhmey.
