The lyrics to SHINee-샤이니's song Your Name beautifully express the desire to call out for a loved one's name and feel their presence around us every moment of our lives. The opening lines sung by Onew conveys a sense of longing and a desire to be close to the person he is addressing. He feels that his life is incomplete without them, and he wants to be called by their name. Key enters with an admission of not understanding their lover's pain at times but promises to be there for them. Taemin then speaks about the moments when he kissed their small hand, and he wishes to hear the same sweet words from the person he adores. Jonghyun's voice then comes in, and he contemplates the idea of how he could be happy with the person he loves even if all he had was their small hand to hold.
The chorus is a collective appeal from all members of SHINee to their lover to call out their name and make it their day. They vow to do everything for them and present the small gift that they can - their heart. Minho speaks about the loved one's small lips, etched in his memory, and the desire to wake up next to them in the morning. Onew chants the chorus once again, and the song ends.
Overall, the song is a beautiful ode to love and the power that the mere utterance of your beloved's name can have on your life. It expresses the idea of two people being closely entwined together, and one cannot be happy without the other. The melody and harmonies are perfect for the song's theme, and the members' vocal delivery is heart-rending.
