Naftu [life/soul]
In my dream I saw a world free of violence, hunger, suffering,
a world filled with love.
Now awake in this world I beg, let my dream come true.
Soo baxa. [Let’s go.]
Naftu orod bay kugu aamintaa. [To save your life, run with all your might.]
If we come together, we can mend a crack in the sky.
- from “Let My Dream Come True,” by Warda Mohamed, & Somali proverbs
