K'Naan - Fire In Freetown Lyrics

Damn I love Somali music the lost treasure.

This is the original classic Somali song (1961) by the legendary Somali singer , Fatima Abdillahi known as ' Maandeeq'.
K'NAAN only copied the original Somali words ' Sidii Hogasha Roobka' and the style .The original name of the song is ' Sidii Hogasha Roobka'. Indeed awesome.
Somali classic songs fluorished since late 1940's.

18/04/2019: these days move too fast and do with too little sun

Keeynan u need to translated these beautiful words

Ahh. So. Beautiful is not just a word. (Of course this is just a single song. But I think I like it so what can I say?) anyway.

Freetown is a place in the country of Somalia.A group of rebels started a war and burnt down buildings and killed people,as stated in this song.It’s a grim reminder of how big a small war can be. :(

There is no place in Somalia called Freetown. Freetown is the capital of Sierra Leone.

It's 2018, peace and love from Kenya.

Takes me away 💙

K'naan can put me in a trance

You are always amazing!!!

Listening 12-31-2017-2018- forever great music transcends time.

That saxophone or trumpet part is amazing. It inspires me to learn an instrument.

What I play when I want music.

Hogasha Roobka Means the rainfall

Nin ragi haduu dawlad waayo, isla markaana uu rejo waayo iyo meel uu hiigsanayo wuxuu ka liita duqsiga, waayo meeshu ku istaaga waa laga eryayaa, ma garanyo umadii soomalida la odhan jiray waxa kaga dhacay nasiibkii.

These words touched me in ways i can't explain. I have been asking myself the exact same questions for so long, and I haven't arrived at an answer.

More people should know about K'naan. I love all his songs.
