A dream ... A Somali dream

Once upon a time, a black-man named Martin Luther King said: “I have a dream”. Today, I also stand to say: “I have a dream”.


I have a dream.
My dream is to see my homeland in peace.

I have a dream.
My dream is to see little boys with a toy instead of a gun.

I have a dream.
My dream is to see a rebuilt Somali state.

I have a dream.
My dream is to see a Somali state that 'delivers' justice .

I have a dream.
My dream is to see every mother being able of feeding her kid(s).

I have a dream.
My dream is to see every kid receiving a proper education.

I have a dream.
My dream is to see a united Somalia.

I have a dream.
My dream is to see a nation that does not discriminate based on ‘qabil’ .

I have a dream.
My dream is to see that everyone sees this dreams.

I have a dream.
My dream is to realize my dreams.
