SimpleSPARQL allows queries to SPARQL endpoints in a very simple language similar to MQL. The query language is designed specifically for python and uses python dictionaries in the same way as MQL.

Example Code:

>>> from SimpleSPARQL import SimpleSPARQL
>>> sparql = SimpleSPARQL("http://dbpedia.org/sparql")
>>> n = sparql.n
>>> n.bind('rdf', 'http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#')
>>> n.bind('rdfs', 'http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#')
>>> n.bind('dbpedia2', 'http://dbpedia.org/property/')

>>> # the area in Km^2 of things labeled England
>>> print sparql.quickread({
>>>                           n.rdfs.label : u"England",
>>>                           n.dbpedia2.areaKm : None
>>>                        })[0]
130395

>>> # The Prime Minister of England's types
>>> q = {
>>>		n.rdfs.label : u"England",
>>>		n.dbpedia2.primeMinister : {
>>>			n.rdf.type : None
>>>		}
>>> 	}
>>> for type in sparql.quickread(q) :
>>>	print type
