Your Name

The first time I heard your name, I wrote it on the soil, then the wind came and blew it away. Secondly, I wrote on the soil again, then the water came and washed it away. Thirdly, I wrote it on the sky, then the clouds covered it.

Lastly, I wrote it in my heart, where it can stay safely, and nothing can disturb it.
