Magi

Magi - pronounced as "ma ji" and the meaning goes like this -

(New Testament) the sages who visited Jesus and Mary and Joseph shortly after Jesus was born; the Gospel According to Matthew says they were guided by a star and brought gifts of gold and frankincense and myrrh; because there were three gifts it is usually assumed that there were three of them

as far as i know, O.Henry is famous for his irony, i could understand it very clearly just after reading a wonderful short story of his called "The Gift of Magi"
the irony of the poor yet loving life will be revealed.

such a beauty of love shown :) , hope i am not exaggerating, but felt happy reading it, enjoy if u get a chance anytime
