Mshairikasti The Poetcast Mohammed AlGhassani

Yalipowashika, magonjwa na njaa, na umasikini 
Mukahangaika, kwa zenu fadhaa, kusaka auni
Mukatawanyika, kukimbia baa, kwenda ugenini 
Mukamiminika, mote kasambaa, kote mabarani 
Nako kapokewa 
Mukaauniwa 
Mwengine mukawa, kwa yenu khiyana, munamukoloni 

Taaluma yake ni Rasilimaliwatu, lakini fani yake ni ushairi. Jina lake ni Ali Mohammed, mshairi kutoka visiwani Zanzibar.

We agreed to have an election and not the war
We agreed to have open and fair campaign
We agreed to listen to the voice from the ballot box
But for your treachery
All that we agreed 
You easily tore them up
Then you started your perfidy
Your banditry
And full of hooliganism!

Sakina Taki, a poet from Nairobi, has found her peace in Zanzibar and for that she chose to launch her poetry collection, My Little Yellow Book, on the island. She speaks about healing, redemption, and redefining space, existence and essence.

Ni nadra siku mbili kupita bila kukutana na shairi lake mtandaoni. Ni kama kwamba analielezea kila jambo maishani kwa njia ya ushairi.  Anaamini ushairi ni rahisi, ni halisi na ni mwepesi. Jina lake ni Mfaume Khamis, na lakabu yake ni Mshairi Machinga.
