NICEMAN Posted June 24, 2003 Writing Sample sidii koorweyn halaad oo Kor iyo Hawil sare ka timid Kulayl hadan baan qabaa Shimbiro geed wada koraa Midi ha cayn bay U cidaa Carro ha waa camaladdeed Illayn Lays ma cod yaqaan Hal baa hum igaga jaban Hilbaha yaan ka ceshaadaa Habeenkii ka ma lulmoodoo Dharaartii ka ma hadh galo Sankaa qori igaga jabay Sintaa qari igaga jabay Sintaa midig baan ka jabay Il baa sachar igaga dhacay Haddana waan soconayaa. Translation Like a she-camel with a large bell Come from the plateau and upper Haud, My heat is great. Birds perched together on the same tree Call each their own cries, Every country has its own ways, Indeed people do not understand each others' talk. One of my she-camels falls on the road And I protect its meat, At night I cannot sleep, And in the daytime I can find no shade. I have broken my nose on a stick, I have broken my right hip, I have something in my eye, And yet I go on. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
