Dirham comes from Greek coin, drachma While the Abu Dhabi man hailed from Valderrama I looked at the paper money you gave me Its color, a mixture of green and earth Reminding me of El Nido’s green waters And the earth our bare feet walked See the eagle, the mini- Burj Al Arab! Eagle's the keeper, the other: glass of memories Perhaps, ten dirhams were ten little Indians Made of us -- six, three beds and a moon, gone.

Ten Dirhams
Dirham comes from Greek coin, drachma While the Abu Dhabi man hailed from Valderrama I looked at the paper money you gave me Its color, a mixture of green and earth Reminding me of El Nido’s green waters And the earth our bare feet walked See the eagle, the mini- Burj Al Arab! Eagle's the keeper, the other: glass of memories Perhaps, ten dirhams were ten little Indians Made of us -- six, three beds and a moon, gone.
