"The Slow Song" A Translation of the Poem "从前慢" into English
Once Upon a Time, Slowly...
Once upon a time, things used to be slow,
Life's pace was gentle, unhurried in its flow.
Strolling in the meadows, without a care,
Embracing moments, a slow life to share.
People walked leisurely along the way,
Enjoying the journey, day after day.
Long conversations under the shady trees,
Time seemed endless, as gentle as a breeze.
Children played freely, in fields of green,
Their laughter echoed, a joyful scene.
They savored each moment, without a care,
In a world where simplicity was the flair.
In the kitchen, meals were made with love,
Using fresh ingredients sent from above.
Cooking was an art, not a chore to bear,
And family gathered, to share and compare.
Music filled the air, a melodious tune,
Played softly in the background, like a balm to soothe.
No rush or stress, just pure tranquility,
As hearts were touched by the power of harmony.
But now, time is fleeting, moving fast,
We're caught in a frenzy, as if in a cast.
Technology races, and we do too,
Lost in the chaos, forgetting what is true.
So let's embrace the wisdom of the past,
Rediscover the beauty that doesn't fade or last.
Slow down, breathe in the moment, take your time,
And savor the sweetness of life's rhyme.
In a world so full of haste and flurry,
Let's revive the art of living slowly.
For happiness lies not in the rush and chase,
But in moments cherished, at a gentle pace.
So, once again, let's go back to slow,
Where life's treasures truly seem to glow.
Embrace the magic of a simpler time,
As we rewrite our story, one that's sublime.
