Every person has a name that God gave him and which his father and mother gave him Every person has a name which his height and the style of his smile gave him and which his tapestry gave him Every person has a name which the mountains gave him and which his walls gave him. Every person has a name which the star signs gave him and which his neighbours gave him. Every person has a name which his sins gave him, and which his longing gave him. Every person has a name which his enemies gave him and his love gave him. Every person has a name which his festivals gave him, and which his work gave him. Every person has a name which the seasons gave him, and which his blindness gave him. Every person has a name which the sea gave him, and which his death gave him. |
