On the day a boy is born, his parents are visited by a wise man who says, "This is a very, very important boy, and I'm going to give him something marvelous one day, but I will have to give him his name first. So please don't give him a name yet." So, they name him Benaam, which means Nameless. The story tells how the boy seeks, and eventually finds his own name - and also gives away an old dream he doesn't want - for a wonderful new dream.

يوه ورځ ماشوم زيږيږي، د هغې مور پلار يو هوښيار سړي ته ځي، چې ورته وايي "دا ډېر ډېر مهم هلک دی، او زه به يوه ورځ ده ته مهم څه ورکړم، خو هغه ته به اول نوم ورکړم. نو لطفاً دی ته اوس نوم مه ورکوئ" نو دوی يې، بې نومه، پريږدي، او بې نومی يې يادوي. دا کيسه بيانوي چې څرنګه هلک خپل نوم پسې ګرځي او پای کې يې مومي - او ورسره پخوانی خوب چې نه يې غواړي - پر يوه نوي په زړه پوری خوب بدلوي.
