Castro Posted February 28, 2006 Try this one too: Layligu kasha biyihiisa ku jiruu ka didaa. Incidently, ten years ago this week, I challenged some nomads to collect 1000 proverbs on soc.culture.somalia. See our efforts here. I wonder what became of my proverb-possy.

xiinfaniin Posted February 28, 2006 ^^A novice dromedary is prone to panic. That was good effort, saaxiib. It must had been rewarding to spark that latent literary interest. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Castro Posted February 28, 2006 ^ Indeed it was. And I learned a few more words today. Dromedary is one of them. I need to spend more time on these Somali poetry sites. I can't pass on a language that I know not. G'nite. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miskiin-Macruuf-Aqiyaar Posted March 2, 2006 Salaan... Boobka, qooyeelaasha ayaaba isoo xasuusisay. Anaga saan aa u naqaanay, laakiin maadaama aad adig ciyaal Kismaayo tahay kuwa kalaa jiraa laga yaabaa. Saan anaga u kala kaseynay: Boor dambas [greyga] Sharax [madoow iyo cadaan isku jiro] Baliil [wada cad] Baal gaduud [garbaha ka gaduudan] Uul [madoownimo dhaafay/tay] Waxaan xasuustaa qooleey guryihii Afrikaan Filej [African Village] buuxi jiray, oo dad lahaan jirin. Maalin aan aadnay guriga habaryarteena oo meesha ku yaalay ayaan bac kusoo xaabinay. Caqli xumo meelba bacda maka daloolin, oo markii gurigii la imaaday, masaakiintii oo wada dhintay ayaa aragtay. Ciil iyo ka naxid. Proper burial aan u sameynay, oo "kafan" aa ku xirnay xataa. Ciyaal ciyaal iga dheh, waayo waayo. Qooleey waa shimbir yaab ah, maxee waqti naga dhumisay. Maxaa dool tifnay intaa baaf u dhignay ku qabanay siriq ahaan, ka bacdina sacfaraan la mariye hadhoow dadkii lahaa see u kasin. I still loof qooleey. Fond memories.

Miskiin-Macruuf-Aqiyaar Posted March 3, 2006 Salaan... Saafir, waligeey ma maqlin indha galuus. Ma hubtaa? I kinda like qooleey-style shukaansi. Very persistent, always endeavouring. He never eats, always pursuing her on his waq-waq-kurukukuu. Eventually, she gets tired of it, and sits down. Humans should take a leaf from that qooleey-style shukaansi book. It bothers stalking, I agree; laakiinse runtii waa xariif qooleeyda. I still sometimes observe for minutes, always amazed this kinda of shukaansi. I think I better jot them down from now on, and eventually make it a researched paper. Al doobs out there, rejoice, this thorough researched paper will be published soon.

Abaa there's nothing simple about Qooley style of shukaansi, waa aragtay wuxuu dhib maraayo iyo inta baal riig ka dhaceeso miskiinka iyo sidee iyadana u suureeneeso.. suuraba ileyn Qooleey aa lagasoo gaaray..

Baashi Posted March 3, 2006 Ku dar dib jiid iyo cunto afka loo galiyo. Baashaal iyo baashoba qooleey aa laga keenay ileen. Laakiin suuraha madax rux calaashaan qaabilaad aa ku xigto. Saxaarad Dib jiid dawaafin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now I know where some Jaamac's get their rather odd shukaansi tips from, ileen qoolayda ayeey darsaan Speaking of qooley, I adore white ones, wouldn't mind having some.

Alle-ubaahne Posted March 3, 2006 ehehehe, Walaahi waa iga qosliseen, meeshaan ciyaalka xaafada aa iskugu yimid, maba ogeen, warka isii dheh. Magac iga hari waayay aanba aniga qooleey darteed ku qaatay. Waxaan xasuustaa anoo xaafadeena inta qooleey lagu daatay ciyaalkii halmar, aan soo tagay Oday iyo Habar boorshiin ahaa. Xaafadeena carwo camal aa loo soo gali jiray, xoogaa waa qurxoonaayeen, Odaygana wax ka riigmo badnaa ma jirin, dadka xitaa kama xishoon jirin. Ninyahow ciyaalkii xaafada aa midhaa iga ileysteen, maalintii danbe nasiib daro markaan subixii soo toosay aan fiiriyay saxaaradii, sababtoo ah subaxwalba intaanan school aadan iyagaan fiirin jiray, kadibna masago aan u daadin jiray, laakiin subaxaas waxaan qooleydii ka arkay baalal meesha ku daadsan iyo dhiig farabadan. Koley maalintaas murugo iyo tacsi aa xaafada noo taalay, inkastoo hooyadeey ay aad u nibceed qooleyda, hadana weeyba ku faraxday markeey maqashay warka. Galabtii markeey tahay aa xaafada ciyaal badan imaadeen, si ay u arkaan qooleydii xaafada ugu qatarsaneed, markeey meesha ka waayeena, waxaanba maqlooyaa ciyaalkii xaafada oo iigu yeeraayo Qasaaro waa qasaartay and that was the kick-off of the new nick, Qasaaro . We say, 'ciyaal waa cudur laga koro' but in grown up ages, the best reflections of our time comes when we glance at our youthful times. Aqyaarta, yaa heesan jiray Daanyeer, ama Korrow oo ciyaal suuq ah? Bahalkaas caadi maaha, waliba markuu suuqa galo oo ciyaalka inteey dhib baraan, hadana xaafada gabdhahooda kusoo jeesto!

Bahalkaas caadi maaha, waliba markuu suuqa galo oo ciyaalka inteey dhib baraan, hadana xaafada gabdhahooda kusoo jeesto! Abaa wiilal soomaali oo reer Mombasa ah oo aan deris eheen aa waxee lahaayeen mid shaxaari ah oo wallaahi xitaa mukulaal ma cafinaayo nooh, waxaan xasuustaa maalin aabohood aa lagu dacweeyay, "Baba Suleiman hi nyani ni mkora Wallaahi, paka ina tongoza hata paka..Sallaalah" macnaha waxee usheegoosaa wiilasha aabohood oo ee ledahay "Daanyeerkan xittaa Mukulaal ma cafinaayo" Suleiman hada wuxuu daganyahay London markaan sheekeysaneyno over the phone oo aan soo xasuusano sheekadaas iyo maamadaas baajuunta eheed (May Allah Rest Her Soul) sidaa uqosleeno illin aa naga imaato.... Abaa one thing is for sure...those of us who were fortunate enough to spend their entire or early childhood in Somalia had the best childhood compared to these unfortunate kids who are now growing up outside of Somalia... no matter what.. they will never understand what's so great about Qooleey or Kushineeto.. how many of you thought your Garaangar was the fastest without ever realizing it was only you who is faster than the other kid Peace,Love & Unity.
