Go Slowly
« Allez Lentement »
 
 Je suis pressée
 Tout le temps
 « Dépêche-toi »
 Me dit-on
 Et je vais vite
 Mes chaussures 
 Sont trop étroites
 Et ma veste est
 Trop courte
 Rien ne va comme il faudrait
 
 Les français
 Ont raison
 Ils se reposent souvent
 Ils boivent
 Leur café
 Plus lentement
 Que les américains
 Je pense
  Qu’il faut
 Aller plus lentement
 
 Ecoutez le message de la France
 Et allez lentement
 Il faut avoir le temps 
 Pour les choses
 Qu’on veut faire
 Alors, prenez le temps
 Pour vous reposer
 Asseyez-vous
 Sur une chaise
 Et regardez autour de vous
 
 Prenez le temps
 Pour écouter
 Les oiseaux
 Qui chantent
 Le matin
 Admirez la couleur
 De leurs ailes
 Quand ils volent
 Et n’oubliez pas 
 D’aller lentement
 
 
 
  
 “Go Slowly”
 
 I am in a hurry
 All the time
 “Hurry up”
 I am told
 And I go quickly
 My shoes 
 Are too tight
 And my jacket
 Is too short
 Nothing is like it should be
 
 The French
 Are right
 They often rest
 They drink
 Their coffee
 More slowly 
 Than Americans
 I think
 That one should
 Go more slowly
 
 Listen to the message of France
 And go slowly
 One should have the time
 For the things
 They want to do
 So, take the time
 To rest
 Sit down
 In a chair
 And look around you
 
 Take the time
 To listen
 To the birds
 Who sing
 In the morning
 Admire the color
 Of their wings
 When they fly
 And don’t forget
 To go slowly
