Without You Mommy

Without You Mommy

Author: Khadar Osman July 7, 2023 Duration: 4:23

This song was also written by Hadraawi (may Allah have mercy on him). 

It's nicely put together, and mothers do deserve uncodnitional love and care.

FYI: The song is longer than this.


Hooyooy la'aantaa

Aduunyadu hubaashii

Habeen kama baxdeenoo

Iftin lama heleenoo

Without you, mommy certainly

the world would be in total darkness 

There will be no light 



Dadku uma hayaameen

Xiddig hawd ka lulatoo

Sida haad ma fuuleen

Dayax heego joogoo

Hubka laguma tureen

Hawo laguma gaadheen

Cirka hirar ka muuqdoo


People would have not gone 

Above the moon

Like birds they wouldn’t climb

The star lighting up in the sky

Wouldn’thave been accomplish by thought

Weapon would not be thrown 

At the sky waves,



Ruux aad hagaysiyo

usha mid aad u haysaa

hilin toosan weligii,

ka habaabi mayee

Hooyoy addoomuhu

Halkay maanta joogaan

Adigow horseedoo



Undoubtedly, one guided by your perfect devotion 

would never stray from the straight road.

Mommy, where the where is today, 

Surely have paved the path


The number of heroes  you have carried,

 held close to you, and fed them is uncountable and incalculable

When You give birth to a  warrior, 

Oh Mother, when your daring kid amazes and inspires others!

You are remembered
