It was given to me when I was born,
And it was given to you.
I am recognized by it,
And you are recognized by it, too.
What I am talking about, is my name
Which is part of who I am.
If it's difficult for you to pronounce it,
I am not the one to blame.
There are a lot of names in the world,
And it's hard to learn them all.
But if you try to pronounce them,
You'll have fun, not to say a ball.
Let's take my name, if you don't mind,
Which is RYSZARD, by the way.
It's not a big deal for me to say it,
But can YOU say it the proper way?
I can hear you saying now:
Is he crazy or what!
Well, as far as I know,
I may assure you, I am not!
I have learned all your names,
And it wasn't hard for me to do.
So, if you don't mind my asking,
How about you?
You tried to call me RYEZARD.
What sounds good, but it is not me.
Let me then explain to you,
How it should be.
Let's take the first letters,
Which are R and Y.
When you put them together,
They should sound RI not RYE.
The next five letters in my name,
Are the toughest ones for you.
But if you think about your SHARD,
It makes it easy to pronounce them, too.
Now, I think, you're ready to say my name,
The way it should be.
So put all the letters together, please...
It's not so hard, you'll see.
If you have enough of me,
I am the one who you may blame.
For what I've done to you,
But at least you know my name.
And now when you can pronounce it,
And it sounds good to you.
I can only bow,
And say, to all of you: THANK YOU!
RYSZARD = RISHARD
