Ngonge's Hadraawi Moment

Recommended Posts

Abtigiis   

Uxorious Ngonge is not only a committed family man, it now emerges. In what can only be described as atavistic literary ingenuity, he has composed a rendition of his villagetrait (compatriot) Mohamed Ibrahim Warsame (Hadrawi's) timeless "Togdheer song" for his other love: Shiisha. I received this poem from him courtesy of a facebook message.

 

Taksiile suuqa joogaan

Talafoon u dirayoo

U tilmaamay bahashoon

La soo taw dheh ku idhe

 

Isma tarin dhaqaaquu

U tabaabushaasytoo

Taab gaabnidiisay

Naftu tiigsi awgii

La tawaawacaysaa

 

Ma traafik baa qabtay?

Ma tilmaanti buu gafay?

Mise tu yaruu qaaduu

Tiir uu ku tiirshoo, taataabanyaa?

 

Tolow miyey qaniintoo

Tab aan loo fadhiyin iyo

Tu hoosuu ka tuugsaday?

 

Todobaatan jeer baan

Tuujiyey indhaha oo

Siday timo haldhaaleey

Ula tagtay shiishadaydii

Taah iyo xaraariyo

dawakh baan la toosaa!"

 

 

:D :D :D

^^ These are the problems I used to have, saaxib. But I quit shiihsa a while back and now I smoke these:

 

electronic-cigarettes-e-cigarettes-550.j

 

p.s.

 

Ku man xaasidin tagsiilaha hado wax helay. For I've always said, nin qooqay waxba laga ma qoro. (with apologies for my inability to use a more polite description) :D
