Eritreans singing in Somali? Translation needed

Post by Warsai »

I came across this vid, the two young singers are up-and-coming artists in Eritrea, I didn't know they spoke Somali. Can someone give me a general translation on what they're singing?

Yes it's Somali at least the starting and the ending.

It's is a wrought translation and might not be all corrects.


1.Soomaalidoow sidaad taqaan.
2.Sanado aan u wada naal
3.Saacad uun oohin naga kayn
4.Silci maayo................????

A language that I don't understand.

1.Soomaali idilkeed
2.Dhulka Soomaaliyeed.... ????
3.Saakana heshiiya

--
1.Somaalis as you know
2.The years we been toghter
3. A hour only broght us tears
4. Silici means to suffer. I don't get what follows.
A language that I don't understand.

1. Somalis as a whole
2. The lands of Somalis..??
3. Reconcile this morning.

Silic baad ku noolayd - You lived in dispair

Walaal, walaal, walaal - brothers
Kaalay, kaalay, kaalay - Come (toghether)

Soomaal, Soomaal - Somalia
Soomaal, Soomaal
Subax nagu dhaafta sabab la'aan - Morning (your time) passes just like that (for nothing useful)

Soomaali idilkeed - All Somalis
.......... heshiiya - Reconsile!
