Chapter 25

One Ting Weh Mix Up inna Chaos

有物混成,先天地生。寂兮寥兮,独立不改,周行而不殆,可以为天下母。
吾不知其名,字之曰道,强为之名曰大。大曰逝,逝曰远,远曰反。
故道大,天大,地大,王亦大。域中有四大,而王居其一焉。
人法地,地法天,天法道,道法自然。
De is one ting weh mix up inna chaos, born before heaven and earth. Quiet and empty, it stan alone and neva change, circle roun and roun without tire, and it cyan be de moder of everyting weh exist ondast heaven. Me neva know it name, so me call it de Way. When me mus force out a name, me call it Great. Great mean move forward, move forward mean far, far mean come roun again. So de Way great, heaven great, ear great, and de ruler great too. De world got four great tings inna it, and de ruler a one of dem. Man follow de way of ear, ear follow de way of heaven, heaven follow de Way, and de Way follow it own natural way.
