Howdy y'all!

 

So which Somali poet is your favorite?

 

Mine is listed below. On the top of the moving words, I just love the tone! Jaamac Kediye is simply a great reciter!

 

I ask all SOLers to take a look at the below video, it is worth of a minute or two of your time. Once you hit that play button, it will be hard to stop this video.

Ali Dhuux is indeed one of the best in the Somali poetry world. Great choice! I am not familiar with the other fella you mentioned, do you have links for any of his poets?

Thanks bro Ilko!

 

You have named some very popular names. I specifically admire Salaan Carrabey's famous poem, Hadaaqsi. One of the best of all time.

 

Here are some his words:

 

1. Haadaaqsi Gabay waaya dheer haansa ma lahayne

2. Hiirtaanyo godobtaan ku nacay hibashadiisiiye

3. Hawaala warran mooyee si kale wawga haayiraye

 

4. Goortaan hammiga gaabsadaa layla hiishadaye

5. Hadba nin igu haansaday anaw hela jawaabtiise

6. Dhaaxaan mid hanaqaad is biday so hoggaan baraye

 

7. tixdaan hidiyo haaneedsigaan hoodo ku lahaaye

8. hal abuurka layguma higsado soo hadaaf baxay

9. Hooyaalayntaan kaga badshaa haybad iyo luuqe

 

10. Haasaasahaa laga gartaa hagar la'aaneede

11. mar haddaan hullaabta iska rogo soo hankaabsadaye

12. An hawadiyo hoosada Burciyo Herer ka geeyeene

Good choice, I remember him with the below lines:

 

Baadida ninbaa kula daydaya, daalna kaa badane

Oon doonihayn inaad heshana, daa’in abidkaaye

Dadkuna moodi duul wada dhashoon, wax u dahsoonayne

Dala malaha aakhiro haddii, loo kitaab dayeye
