The Real Owner of Somaliyeey Toosooy

[Sheikh Mustafa]

I do not think Khaasim Hillowle can compost this words. They are too hard to be Southern Somali Words. They must be northern Somali.

Yaa dhahay khaasim hiloowle qoray somaliyeey toosooy.......


He composed the song.... not erayada... Erayada waa qalalanyihiin... Khaasim Hiloowle make it what somaliyeey toosooy is today.. Very beautiful cord...

Yuusuf Xaaji Adan AUN, composed that song while he was studying at Sheikh secondary school. It starts with this line>

Tulud geeloo dhacan baad toogasho ugu badheedhaane
ma dhulkaas dhanee tagay baan nina dhagax u tuurayn?

The koonfurian who claimed that song Qaasim Hilowle, was asked what Tulud Geela means in 1970s which he failed to answer.
Later he confessed that he was not the composer of the song but was only the singer.

Somalis are something really. It was only a few decades ago yet the author is not universally known

I always found the "waxaan la oyaayo" or whatever line a bit too sad and weak for a national anthem. We need something strong and proud. Not a whiny song about a few decades of gumeysi when we've been around (not as a nation but as a people) for so many more.
