Abtigiis Posted August 15, 2008 You are right. Some are related to astronomy (old style). But too of them are easy Somali. Socotodiisii -is from socod (going). Its going (referreing to the moon). Gaad is to try to catch something with out being seen. Waa la gaaday means he was ambushed, also. Mariqiyo, Dirirkii are the names of some stars. I guess Mariiq must be drived from the Arabic Al-Mareekh (the moon)??. Anyway, Anigaba waa la ii turjumay. Now that I gave you the directory, can you pull the meaning togather? STOIC will do, haddii kale. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Abtigiis Posted August 15, 2008 Good my dear. Maalin wanaagsan. How Am I ever get to home? I skipped lunch again? Waa la ii yaabaa maanta? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-Lily- Posted August 15, 2008 Something about the constant stars, the moving moon, more stars, hiding and ambushing? Hut houses? Getting one’s own back? No clue! Usually in poetry when you’re looking for meaning it’s not what the word means but the connotations that are attached to that word since space is very limited in poems. Hadi adiguba laguu turjumay what hope do we have? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sxb, Mariqiyo or Mareekh waa the Planet Saturn, also called Faraare in original Somali, ama loogu yeeraa Mariikh-Dhiigle, mars is called Saxal or Saxal-Gaduud as you know. Waad xasuusataa the following tix which is alliterated in letter S: Adduunyadu nin bay saaciddaa, sare u qaadaaye. Ninna waaba saranseerisaa, yare silleeddaaye. San barra ka taag-daran ninkuu, Saxalku fuulaaye Translation in English is straight away The Planets are very important in Somali astrology or astronomoy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
