“Haah hooyo.” “Axme ma joogo.” “Jaa waa baxay miyaa?” “Shalaydii horuuba baxayoo, waxaan u malaynayaa, Gobollada iyo meelahaas in uu aaday baan u malaynayaa.”
“Gobollada aa? Alla aayoy ma hubtaa? Intee waaye Gobolyaalka?” “Maandhay anigu mana caddayn karee, mar baan maqlayey isagoo leh meel baa shaqo la iigu diray.
Wallaahi meesha markii isagu waaba sheegayey, ee anaan shaqfad lahaynoo iska liqay. Jamaame miyuu yiri, mise Jarriiban, mooyi. Waa un meelayowgaas.”
Maana eray dambe kama soo bixin. Dhuuntii baa hal mar engegtay. Afkii baa jawraray. Carrabkii baa cuslaaday. Wiish baa cirka uga yeeray. Wadnahaa gaddoomay. Meel laga jiray garan weyday.
Mar quray ka jeesatay islaantii oo weli u warramaysa. Warkii ay u sheegaysay bay xammili kari weyday Islaanta iyo warkeedaba uurkay ka nebcaysatay, sidii ay iyadu Axmed dhoofisay. Illin indhaheeda ku soo joogsatay bay kala carartay.
Irridkay hal-haleel uga baxday. Jaho ayan garanayn bay afka saartay. Addimadii baa ruuxu ka baxay. Oohin bay ceshan weyday. Af labadi bay yeertay. Oheey oh! Adduunyadu dhib badanaa! Uurku-taallo weynaa.
Ifka maxaa kadeed yaal! Bal miskiinaddaa eeg. Albaabkay garaacdaba ma soo oodmayaa muddo saacad ku dhow markay uurka iyo indhahaba ka ilmaynaysay bay istiri, Horta maad war sugan raadisid? Warshaddii wiilkeedu ka shaqaynayey bay ku dhaqaajisay.
Waxay ku sii riyoonaysay iyadoo Axmed Warshadda ka dhex heshay, islaanta warkeediina beenoobay war xunow lagu waa! Maana Warshaddii bay isa sii taagtay.
Runtii kharaarayd bay mar labaad hardiday. Islaanta warkeedii ma beenoobine iyada riyadeedii baa beenowday ha u bixin, waa riyo iyo caadadeede warkii waa la caddeeyey Injineer Axmed shalay baa shaqo degdeg ah Jilib loogu diray.
“Afar-shan beri buu maqnaanayaa,” baa la yiri. Yaa dhintay yaa nool? Afar iyo shan daaye, caawa hadduu dhaxo, ciribtiis go’day, Maanana galbatay. Bal guuldarradaas eeg! irrid kaloo ay garaacdo markay garan weyday, bay aqalkii Leyla xaggiisa u soo luuddey. Goor maalintii shan saacadood gudubtay bay gurigii ay aroorti ka kallahday ku soo dhacday, iyadoo addimada dhulka
ku jiidaysa, unuunkeeduna culays weyn ku hayo sidii qof kiintaal ciid ah madaxa loo saaray. Erayadii kharaaraa baa weli dhageheeda ka sii yeeraya, “Axmed ma joogo. Shalaydii horuu baxay.
Gobollada iyo meelahaasuu aaday baan u malaynayaa. Jilib baa shaqo degdeg ah loogu diray!” Jilibeey laguma dego may Injineer kale dalbato May shaqadeeda dib u dhigato, maxay ku deg degaysaa? ma dibindaabyadayda iyo dumista aayahayga!
Iyadoo sidii qof duumo hayso u hagoogan bay soo gashay bersaddii gabdhuhu ku sugayeen hal mar bay sacab iyo mashxarad la soo boodeen dhawaaq farxadeed bay kala hor tageen, iyagoo kaftan iyo ciyaar la sacbinaya, ee ku qaylinaya,
“Weey, arooska! Arooska! Arooska!” Ina eedadeed Shariifo oo u buuq yarayd, ergadana iyadu hoggaaminaysay ayaa tiri, “Waryaa maxaa jira inteed ka baxday isla wareeg yahay, ad beriga waaba na noojisaye?”
Iyadoon afkeeda u furin bay hore uga gudubtay qayladoodii baa madaxii wareersanaa sii danqisay arooska ay kula kaftamayaan bay ku xajiimootay farxaddoodaa dhibaysa.
Waayo, waxa farxadda ka keenay bay og tahay. Waa waxa iyada murugada ku beeray muruqa laba suulle, ninba si ku ah! “Maxaa? Wajigaada see camal? Wax faraxsan ma u ekide?” mid baa ku tuurtay.
“Qaf arooskeeda loo darban yahay, iidana tiirayso, maa la soo arkay?” mid kalaa ka daba tiri mid saddexaad baa intay isku hallays garbaha gacanta uga saartay, cod macaan ku tiri, “In run ka tahay maa mudaysiin, iswareys lee waaye.
Qalbigay ka faraxsan tahay. Soo bax, soo bax! Saacaddaan dadka waa na dhararsadeene!” Intay gabadhii kaftamaysay gacanteedii iska dalfisay bay sariir isku tuurtay.
