Abdi Qays made a duo with the queen vocalist in the Somali speaking world the famous Khadra Daahir where he wrote her most of the love songs and poems and was part in playing the Oud sometimes . He lives in Hargeisa somaliland until now.
here is a part of the famous Dalaay Poem which was started by him and Hadraawi in the late 1970s and is against the Siad Barre regime.
First, I am coming to see you
Second, I am carrying something with me
Be patient always
Oh! "Saharla" don't be impatient!
The lyrics of Abdi Qeys' rebuttal is:
Don't come! Go back
Keep whatever you are carrying with you
I am impatient
"Soobaan" is saying!
The world has passed
The stage when you have
To wait for things to happen.
