Hadddii ay joojin wayaan been abuurka ay ka wadaan saylici waxaa dhici doônta in beesha habar xusseen ay jawaab adag ka bixin doonto mana aha bahabar celi beel dagaal loogu hanjabo maaha Meesha aan ku duulana laygama macaashoo waan sibir maruujaa, reèruhuna way is yaqanaan waana la yaqanaa qolada tiinka dabada galisa marka ragu dagaal u baxo, saban saban seera ma dhaafto.
