Translation
Oh, Slow and Easy
Oh, slow and easy
Patience leads to salvation
He said to those in a hurry, be slow
Oh my, he said, easy
Oh, slow and easy
Those who rush end up in a tizzy
The slow one reaches the goal
Gently row the oars, gently
The spider weaves the curtains in the palace of Caesar
The owl calls the watches in the towers of Afrasiab
Oh, slow and easy
If the word is silver, silence is gold
Thus, silence worth more
When you can be calm and quiet
What to say to those who tattle and tire
Oh, slow and easy
oohshiny
