Gabbal Reloaded

Recommended Posts

Abtigiis   

Markaan waayay geedaan harsadeen cago gubyoonayay

Guuraha habeynkii markaan dhaxanta goowriiray

Gabal dhiciyo Waaberi markaan dirir ku goohaayay

Gomadaha markay iga mudeen gocondho heeraaya

Gacmahiyo markii aan ka jabay gaararkiyo lowga

Gudcurkiyo dharaartii markaan galinba soo jeeday

Gurguurtiyo xaggee bay jireen gacalka aad sheegi

 

Gedo iyo Kismayiyo xagar guriga kaambooni

Gumac iyo rasaas baan ku helay goboladeydiiye

Kuma hanan gadhkoo aan qabtiyo, gacan nasteexaade

Cidna ima gargaarinnee, Rabbaa hiish ii galayee

 

I have told you Gabbal is rediscovering his ancestory and with these fearsome lines he tells of surrogates of Garguurte. :D :D

Gabbal reloaded again, indeed. And it runs in the family as you know. When Galayax was asked why his poems seem to be getting traction in Somalia's literary community, he resorted another poem to signify why few can contest to his poetic throne. It was, said he, a profession of mine to recite poetry since in young age. In one of the most eloquent poems I have ever read here is Galayax justifying his stature in poetry and literature. Likewise , Gabbal's come back was expected ...

 

Enjoy.

Tunka Eyl Taleex iyo Nugaal, Tumurre meeshiisa

Taallada Hargeysiyo Burciyo, Tahadka Buuhoodle

Tariinaha Jabbuutiyo intii, Taango laga gaaro

Togga Adari tuulada Wardheer, Tur iyo Laasoole

Tayim iyo Mareeraale iyo, webiga teedkiisa

Tubta Xamar tafaha Jawhar iyo, tayga Beledweyne

Toobiga Wajeer loo mariyo, tuluska Baardheere

Tuus iyo Quraanyey Garraha, labada tooxood ah

Tunni iyo Abg-aal iyo Haw-iye, Tuurcaddiyo Booran

Marre-exaanka Tuuraha degoo, Togo ku maalaaya

Maje-erteenka taagtiyo H-artiga, turuqa waaweyn leh

Iido-orka wada taajiriyo, tiirka Ha-bar Yo-onis

Oga-ade-enka tamashleynayoo, tirada loo daayey

Intaas aan turaab iyo dhul iyo, tol iyo meel sheegay

Tixaha gabay anaa Yuusufow, taarashka u sida’e

Dadkuna ii tixgeli meeshan iyo, toban jirkaygiiye

Anigoon toddoba gaarin baan, taani ku ahaaye
