Ich heiße Prachi.
In German, this sentence means: I am called Prachi.
In short, you might sum it up as how to introduce yourself.
True enough, 'I am So-and-so' can also be stated as 'Ich heiße So-and-so'.

And in simply saying 'I am so-and-so', the true German meaning is lost.
Which is SO beautiful.

Who you are is completely unprecedented, it's a story.
Let's find out that story.
How about we begin with what you are called?

I am interested in the depths of your soul.
The vague things, the little things.
Show me your all, take your sweet time.
Let me discover all that you hide.

All that resides.
