Muqdishou 1984

[gobdoon]

I watched the Video recorded in there 1984 and how things were good nice buildings like Hotel Juba, and Al-curuba and now it is a ghoast town,never mind thousands of people lost thier lives that is even worse, and let us hope it would come back from the ashes with it is former glory, you have to be optimistic!!

I also, remember the glorious day of Mogadishu. And, wish and hope it will come back one days soon. We must remain hopeful and pray to Allah that our beloved city will return as it was, a shining light at western coast of Indian Ocean. As following poem eloquently puts it:

My yesterdays were burned by Phoenix fire

Yet in the death’s ash, embers of hope remain

New dreams given birth in despair

Covered with ash, I mourn what was

To remember what will be no more

Then like the Phoenix I’ll rise

With renewed passion glowing red, yellow, orange

Ash will give way to flame

Like the Phoenix I’ll soar again




Mogadishu, XAMAR CADDE forever
