There is a friend of mine, who usually gets attracted and too much
engrossed by the overall beauty of Asmara’s (Asmarino) ladies. I could only
guess about what makes him attracted to such an indescribable beauty for
the exact reason behind his remark is not yet known to me. He usually
exclaims saying “The ladies of Asmara…!”And ladies think of his over
repeated remark as if he had a bad experience in a relationship. His reply
is just so simple that ladies have never wronged him nor will they wrong
anybody. “I have never heard of a lady’s misdeed against her lover, the
reality is to the contrary” is what he says.
Much of his conversation is preoccupied with the topic of ladies’ beauty
(the beauty of Eritrean ladies). If the conversation is mainly focused on
the issue of ladies, it makes one feel engrossed to his rhetoric
expression. As if one is ordered to be a listener alone, nobody wants to
say any for the topic seems much relevant to him alone. He is indeed an
expert in describing ladies’ beauty.
Asmara is indeed a beautiful city which is needless to say much about, but
such a beauty is by far enhanced by the beauty of its ladies’.
“You have beautiful ladies, who are feast to the eyes, around the Cathedral
Road,” once said an expatriate instructor who was teaching us English and
African literature at Eritrea Institute of Technology (EIT). His view about
the beauties of Asmara was quite strange for us all; who were attending his
lectures for he is a man in his late sixties. What is really true about the
ladies of Asmara is that they attract any body regardless of age group.
However, as if to agree with an Eritrean saying “A gold at hand is just
like insignificant piece of cloth”, the beauty of Eritrean ladies continues
to be an ordinary one for us all who get accustomed to such a great beauty
and for those who are not yet awake to see the unique attractiveness they
possess.
As if Asmara only let’s to have a beauty that equals to its prettiness,
Asmarino ladies are exceedingly beautiful-a beauty that goes parallel to
the city’s attractiveness. Thus, the ladies who make walks in the main
streets of Asmara are perfect matches to be mingled with a scenery that is
worth watching without being deviated. If someone is lucky enough, it is
out of question that everybody would not hesitate to have an Asmarino lady
to be his lifetime partner. They are in short the apple of everybody’s eye.
Once I saw a foreign tourist exited by the grace of Asmarnio girls, it
called my attention to make a close observation of a beauty I was not much
aware of. It was indeed a beauty that not only called my attention but also
altered my views for it made me notice a beauty that was hidden to me.
Personal hygiene is an enhancement to their natural beauty is what another
friend of mine says while he tries to admire ladies of Asmara. “Tidiness is
what they are known for.” He says. They never grumble; not even when their
well nourished hand nails get cracked due to an engagement in unpleasant
household chores.
In the course of admiring the beauty of Asmara’s ladies, there is nothing
these friends would not say about. If a survey is to be made by the
Eritrean Telecommunications Service (Eri-Tel), the number of girls who
always make flash calls would exceed by 100 folds of that of the boys. It
is surprising to read a text massage written by a number of ladies to be
“Dewleley” (Please give me a call). If this is true, it is indeed another
hidden thing which needs to be researched. But, no matter whether such a
remark is true or not, it could not blemish the beauty of Asmara’s ladies.
At times, that is when a group of girls gather for a recreation at any
given café in Asmara, they collaborate in paying a bill. However, they
break the culture of sharing when a guy joins them. They just let him cover
all the expenses, as if it is a taboo to pay a bill in the presence of any
guy. However, ladies of Asmara are very clever in buying bus ticket even
for a dozen of people, is what my friend says.
The beauty of Eritrean ladies is so incredible. And such a beauty has not
come from an excessive make up but is rather so natural. Thus, they almost
invest nothing to embellish their look. It makes one feel that there exists
a clever sculpture in the womb of Eritrean mothers. One may mistakenly
think that the streets of Asmara are closed for plump ladies. The truth is
however, there are hardly any overweight girls. If someone happens to see a
few ladies, who go to GYM to make exercise so as to lose some weight, it is
mostly a pretense they employ when they need to hang around the main
streets of Asmara. In an attempt to stay slimmer, ladies who regularly lose
weight and who make frequent visits to tailor shops to resize their dresses
are not few in number. Some tailors have regular clients- ladies who are
always in tune with every new fashion. A number of Eritrean singer, who
make close observation of such slim bodies have composed different lyrics
that admire the beauty of Eritrean ladies and particularly about their
perfectly shaped waists. The beauty of Asmarino ladies is indeed a fest to
the eyes and above all their internal beauty has a soothing effect to the
mind.
