By Yassin Ibrahim

ሰነት ኣልፍስዕምእት ው ሳብዓ

እላ ሰነት ዲማ ኢእትራሳዓ

ኣድማይ ኣዳምየ እትሖላ ቱ ላትካዓ።

ሕራምና ክም ዕጨይ ናዳያ’ት ኣብያተን

ደመን ዋሓዛ’ት ኣፍያተን

ዓራጋያ’ት ዓስተር ጻሎተን።

ኢትትዘመት ዘመተት ገለብ ድገና

ጦርሳራዊት–ክማንዶስ ዘምተዎ፡ ላባዓልደሓን ሻዓብና

እሳት ከረው እትላ ግሩም ኣብያትና/ ማራብዕና

ክም ሃቡይ ‘ት ደብር ኣትመየዎ ላሳብና

ምን ዓድና ናቅላውና

እኪት ራካብና ኢትትጋባእ ግብኣና

እት ምድርና ላጅኣም ወዳውና።

ሰንሒት ዳናና፡ ከረን ጋዓዝና

ግራና ሓዳግና፡ ላርዙቅ ወ ግሩም ኣብያትና

ካ ዲብ ቤት ጋና ኣተና ‘ዶ ካረና

ሰነት ሳብዒን ጻላምታ ዎ ጻርና

ከኣፎ ንትራሳዓ፡ ንኡሽና ዎ ዓቢና።

እት 50ሰናታ ‘ላ ኣምዕል ፍቅዳትና

ጾርና ከረና፡ ዎ ዋጅብና ኣትማምና

ሰክብ ልብና፡ ዎ ቃስን ደሚርና።

  2. Thank you Tsega,
    When our families immigrate from Gelleb to Keren in 1970 , those Ketenait kids were used yo call paletians and were fighting them day in and day out to prove them that Keren is out city and we are not going nowhere but to say…..

  3. Dear Yassin, thank you for the poem. Sorrowful, yet a period in time that ought to be registered in history. So many of us may have heard about it but may not know the details, and those who were born afterward they may not know it occurred. Thank you for the lesson and a descriptive and historical poem.

  4. G. Thanks, for setting the stage and allowing me to share my thought in remembering that awful year. still i cannot share it from my memory

  5. You are welcome G, Bekit.

  6. Thank you, Yasin huye, for remembering Gheleb with your poem. Fifty (50) years later and the memories are still fresh in our minds.
