Balwo is a style of music and poetry practiced in Somalia as well as Djibouti. Its lyrical contents often deal with love and passion. The Balwo genre was founded by Abdi Sinimo.[1][2][3]

History

The Balwo genre was founded by Abdi Sinimo [4][5], a Somali of the Reer Nuur subclan of the Gadabuursi. The first Heelo (Which is considered a sub genre of Balwo) was brought fourth by Abdi Sinimo as well.[6]

In 1945, while working as a lorry driver for the Djiboutian Port Authority [7], Abdi Sinimo was driving his truck and had experienced misfortune when around the Zeila area, thus the first Balwo was created. He called it "Balwo" (meaning misfortune in Somali), because of the remoteness of where his truck had experienced difficulty. [8] The Balwo is a simple love lyric that has revolutionized modern Somali music.[9]

Below is a sample from a poem by Abdi Sinimo .[10]{{Quote box
