## Buuggu waa maxay

First Footsteps in East Africa, or, An Exploration of Harar waxaa qoray sarkaal iyo socdaale Ingiriis ah, **Richard Francis Burton**, waxaana London lagu daabacay 1856 ([Shapero Rare Books, daabacaaddii koowaad](https://shapero.com/products/richard-burton-first-footsteps-east-africa-1856-first-edition-104241); [Project Gutenberg](https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/6886)). Wuxuu ka sheekeeyaa safar ay Shirkadda Bariga Hindiya ka dirtay Bombay iyo Cadan sannadkii 1854.

## Safarka

- **Saylac.** Safarku wuxuu socday 29 Oktoobar 1854 ilaa 9 Febraayo 1855. Burton waqtigaas inta badan wuxuu joogay Saylac isagoo marti u ah guddoomiyihii, Al-Xaaj **Sharmaarke Cali Saalax** ([Richard Francis Burton, Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Francis_Burton)). Buuggu wuxuu si dheer u sharraxaa Sharmaarke iyo qoyskiisa ([Project Gutenberg](https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/6886)).
- **Harar.** Burton wuxuu Harar gaaray 3 Janaayo 1855, wuxuuna joogay qiyaastii toban maalmood, isagoo ahaa reer Yurubkii ugu horreeyay ee la ogyahay inuu magaalada galay ([Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Francis_Burton); [Powell's](https://www.powells.com/book/-9781406800975)).
- **Berbera.** Wuxuu Berbera gaaray 31 Janaayo 1855. Abriil 1855, iyadoo kooxdu xero ku leedahay meel u dhow Berbera, ayaa la weeraray. Lieutenant William Stroyan waa la dilay, John Hanning Speke waa dhaawacmay, Burtonna waran ayaa ka dusay labada dhaban ([Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Francis_Burton); [Bauman Rare Books](https://www.baumanrarebooks.com/rare-books/burton-richard-f/first-footsteps-in-east-africa/102263.aspx)). Ingiriisku wuxuu kadib Berbera xannibaad saaray 1855 iyo 1856 ([Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Francis_Burton)).

## Waxa uu ka sheego Soomaalida

Buuggu wuxuu si faahfaahsan u sharraxaa nolosha Soomaalida woqooyiga: magaalooyinka, ganacsiga, labbiska, cuntada, beelaha iyo sida socdaalayaasha loo ilaalin jiray iyadoo uu *abbaan* (hage iyo ilaaliye deegaanka ah) la socdo ([Project Gutenberg](https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/6886)). Aragtiyaha Burton laftiisu inta badan way adag yihiin; wuxuu Soomaalida ku tilmaamay "qowm geesi ah oo qasan" (tarjumaad) ([Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Francis_Burton)).

Erayadiisa ugu badan ee la xigto waxay ku saabsan yihiin gabayga Soomaalida. Wuxuu qoray in ay jireen "kumanaan hees" oo mawduuc kasta ka hadla, laga bilaabo rarka geela ilaa waraabka biyaha, iyo in "dalku ka buuxo gabayaa iyo gabayaa-yar", iyadoo nin walba kaalintiisa gabayga si sax ah loo yaqaan sidii isagoo boqol sano majallado lagu qiimeeyay. Wuxuu ku daray in gabayo badan ay ahaayeen kuwo luqad ahaan aad u qoto dheer oo Carabtii sannado badan Soomaalida dhex degganayd aysan fahmi karin (tarjumaad) ([First Footsteps, qoraalka Project Gutenberg](https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/6886)). Wax badan oo ku saabsan gabayga laftiisa waxay ku jiraan [Gabayga Soomaalida](/en/society/somali-poetry/).

Lifaaqa waxaa ku jira xusuus-qorka Speke ee isku daygiisii uu ku doonayay inuu gaaro dooxada Nugaal, naxwe kooban oo afka Hararida ah, iyo diiwaanka cimilada jiilaalkii 1854 ilaa 1855 ([Project Gutenberg](https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/6886)).

## Sida loo qaatay

Joornaalka The Spectator ayaa dib u eegay buugga 2 Agoosto 1856 ([Spectator Archive](https://archive.spectator.co.uk/article/2nd-august-1856/28/burtons-exploration-of-harar)). Weerarkii Berbera kadib safarku wuu dhammaaday. Baaritaan laba sano qaatay ayaa inta badan Burton ka saaray eedda, laakiin xirfaddiisu way waxyeelloowday ([Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Francis_Burton)). Buugga dhowr jeer ayaa dib loo daabacay, oo ay ku jiraan daabacaad xusuuseed 1894 iyo daabacaad 1966 oo uu sameeyay Gordon Waterfield ([Internet Archive, daabacaadda 1894](https://archive.org/details/firstfootstepsin01burtuoft); [Internet Archive, daabacaadda 1966](https://archive.org/details/firstfootstepsin0000burt_u5w2)). Taariikhyahannada woqooyiga Soomaalida weli waxay u adeegsadaan faahfaahintiisa Saylac, Berbera iyo waddooyinka ganacsiga, iyagoo la akhriya ilaha Soomaalida.
