Every man has a name
given to him by God
and by his father and mother
Every man has a name
given to him by his stature
and by the manner of his smile
and by his clothes
Every man has a name
given to him by the mountains
and by the walls of his house
Every man has a name
given to him by the zodiac
and by his neighbors
Every man has a name
Every man has a name
Every man has a name
given to him by his sins
and by his yearnings
Every man has a name
given to him by his enemies
and by his love
Every man has a name
given to him by his holidays
and by his profession
Every man has a name
given to him by the seasons
and by his blindness
Every man has a name
Every man has a name
Every man has a name
given to him by God
and by his father and mother
Every man has a name
given to him by the sea
and by his death
