Dhab ahaantii waxaa jira laba Cape Cods. Mid ka mid ah Cape Cod waa dalxiise Mecca. Waa meel lagu cunteeyo, kalluun iyo jajabyo, tiyaataro dibadda ah, iyo guryo qurxoon oo qurux badan oo badda ka fiirsada. Tani waa Cape Cod oo ay ka buuxaan bungalows jaceyl ah iyo meel si fiican u sawiran oo u adeegta sida gadaal u ah filimo badan oo Hollywood ah. Kani waa Cape Codka taajiriinta, oo ay caanka ku yihiin qabiilka John F. Kennedy iyo riyooyin. Waa meel furan oo ay ka buuxaan dad ka socda gobol kasta, jinsiyad, diin, iyo jihada galmood ee dadka soo booqda ay u yimaadaan inay ku ciyaaraan oo ay ku raaxaystaan dhaqaale iyo quruxdeeda dabiiciga ah. Kani waa Codka Cape Cod ee qorayaasha, gabayaaga, iyo fanaaniinta.
Laakiin waxaa jira Cape Cod labaad. Cape Cod Tani waa dhul ay Ingiriisi degdega ah ee degdega ah loogu dhawaaqo lahjad New England ah oo astaan u ah dadka ku nool badda agteeda iyo ka imanaysa. Tani waa dhul fahamsan in baddu ay labadaba bixiso oo ay qaadato iyo in Waqooyiga Atlantic ay noqon karto qabow oo aan cafis lahayn. Kalluumaysatadeedu waxa ay nolol maalmeedkooda ka soo saartaan badda, inta badanna waa in ay badda galaan oo aanay dib u soo noqon.
Dunida warshadaha leh, kalluumaysatada qadiimiga ah waxay u taagan yihiin waagii hore, waa hore oo ay tahay inay la tartamaan hadiyad ay ka buuxaan dalxiiska dabaqadda dhexe kaas oo raadiya wixii la soo dhaafay, laakiin raadinta wixii la soo dhaafay ayaa sidoo kale khatar gelinaya badbaadada dhaqameed. Sida loo abuuro modus vivendi mustaqbalka waa caqabad dhaqameed, jireed, dhaqaale, iyo deegaan. Labadii hore iyo kuwa maantaba waxay isugu baahan yihiin qoob-ka-ciyaar yaab leh oo “Malthusian” ah oo nolol iyo geeri ah, dimoqraadiyad, iyo caqli-galnimo.
Inkastoo caqabadaha jira, shaki kuma jiro in Cape Cod qurux badan yahay. Guryaha dadka hodanka ah waa kuwo waaweyn oo naxariis badan, waxayna xasuusinayaan dadka jidka maraya inay ku jiraan guryo-beero "koonfur" oo khuraafaad ah oo ku yaal miyiga Ingriiska ee sannadkii hore, haddana leh cawskooda hore ee badda. Xarumaha magaaladu wali waxay leeyihiin soo jiidasho, bakhaaradoodana waxaa ka buuxa wax walba laga bilaabo hal mar nacnac "dinaar" ilaa dharka dumarka qurxoon iyo shabaqyada kalluumeysiga ilaa qalab.
Kala duwanaanshahan ganacsi ayaa mar kale ka tarjumaysa xaqiiqda ah in ay jiraan laba Cape Cods oo is barbar nool ugu yaraan dhowr bilood oo diiran sannad kasta. Kadib xagaagu waxa uu gala waxa ay dadka deegaanka u yaqaaniin "xagaaga Hindiya." Tani waa dayrta dheer oo sharaf leh halkaas oo dhirtu ay abuurto "caleenta caleemaha" oo ka soo horjeeda asalka badda cawl qabow. Marka hawadu sii qabowdo, barafku yimaado, dalxiisayaashu way baxaan, tuulooyinka hurdadu waxay bilaabeen inay dib uga soo toosaan hurdadoodii, iyo Cape Codkii hore ee nolosha dib ugu soo noqda.
Tacabirka safarkaaga, Cape Cod kee baad dooran lahayd inaad booqato?
MAXAA LAGU QAADAYAA MAQAALKAN:
- This Cape Cod is a land where the brisk and rapidly-spoken English pronounced with a New England accent symbolizes a population that lives by and from the sea.
- In an industrialized world, the classical fisherman represents the past, a past that must compete with a present filled with middle-class tourism which seeks the past, but in pursuit of the past also endanger its cultural survival.
- The homes of the rich are large and gracious and remind the passer-by of being in mythical “southern” plantation homes set in the English countryside of yesteryear, yet with their front lawns overlooking the sea.
