Hassan Sheikh Mohamud government adopted Qolobaa calankeed composed by Qarshe (west Burco)
back in 2012 as the official anthem of Somalia and scrapped Soomaaliyeey Toosoo composed by
Ali Mire Awale (Darood).



Abdullahi Qarshe lycrics.

Qolobaa calankeed,
waa ceynoo,
Innaga keenu waa,
Cirkoo kale ee,
Oon caadna lahayn,
Ee caashaqaye.
Xidigyahay cadi,
Waad noo ciidamisee,
Carradaa kaligaa
adow curadee
cadceeda sidee
lo caan noqo ee
sidii culagii
ciidad marisee
Alloow haku celin
Alloow haku celin

Any nation’s flag, bears its own color
The sky (above us), does ours look like
Defects it has none; love it with candor
Oh you White Star, at your service we are
Superior you are, in any part of our land
Be famous oh Star, like the sun (of the far)
On the day you arose, our hearts you have
Purified with pureness, (Oh you our flag)
Lord may not dim you, pray we in this night
The detached part of, our forces of five
I beseech from God, their return you cause
This fate that wrote, for us to meet now


 
That last video makes me sad and gives me a tingling sensation in my back. Specially when the little children are dancing first few seconds. Wonder what happened to them.

Say what you will about siyad but almost 30yrs on absolutely nobody's come close to 10% of what we had then. Today we are flying somali captives from Mogadishu airport to Ethiopia proudly. Somalinimo on a government level died with siayd

Siad Bare messed it up. He should have stepped down earlier and pave the way for democratic elections.
 
This is a bit confusing

If i am not mistaken ali mire song was composed during the time somalis gained independence while abdillahi qorshe song was heesta calanka

But during siyaad barre time the anthem was a song praising him and his government

That's not the anthem but the flag song ( heesata calanka). Somalia toosoy has better instrumentals but qolobaa seems more emotional.
