جنيه فضة- تأليف وترجمة طارق منيب

A coin pound
When I got it
I felt amazed
I returned it
And asked him
To give me my pound
Which I used it before
To buy foods, drinks, and cloths
And keep this coin for you
Enjoy it
As it will be memory one day
Like other coins we used before
And as we were told about the piaster
From the people who are older
We shall tell the next younger
That there was pound before
...........................
It was big size pound
Makes you capable and proud
For buying meat and honey
Even for kids pocket money
Even for bread in any quantity
Even for visiting doctor clinic
Even for paying electricity bill
And you leave the exchanges for the collector
He feels happy and pleased
And supplicate to you for your generosity
Keeping smiling telling the others about your kindness
The time came for 1000 pounds electricity bill
The thousand pounds became nothing
The million pounds became such thing
The pillion pound will be nothing
Even the human is now nothing
