Once upon a time there was a small island on which lived Happy, Sad, Knowledge and Love.

One day, feeling that the island was about to sink, they were ready to ship, leaving the island. Only Love to stay, she wanted to hold on until the last minute. After a few days, the small island really began to sink, and Love would like to be helped.

At this time, Rich, riding on a ship, passed by. Love said, “Rich, can you take me away?” Rich replied, “No, many of the treasures of gold and silver are on board. There isn't your position.”

Sad came over. Love asked for help, “Sad, let me go with you!” “Oh. Love, I am too sad, and I want to stay for a while alone!” replied Sad.

Happy passed, but she was too happy, and did not hear Love!

All of a sudden, a voice came, “Come! Love, I take you away.” This is from an elderly person.

More than happy, Love forgot to ask his name. On land, the elderly walked away alone. Love asked Knowledge of an elderly person, “Who is helping me?” “He is the time.” replied the elderly Knowledge. “Time?” Love asked, “Why does he help me?” Knowledge of the elderly smiled, “Only time will understand how great love is.”
【Translation】

从前有一个小岛，上面住着快乐、悲哀、知识和爱。

一天，得知小岛快要下沉了，大家都准备船只离开小岛。只有爱留了下来，她想坚持到最后一刻。过了几天，小岛真的要下沉了，爱想请人帮忙。

这时，富裕乘着一艘大船经过。爱说：“富裕，你能带我走吗？”富裕答道：“不，我的船上有许多金银财宝，没有你的位置。”

悲哀过来了，爱向她求助：“悲哀，让我跟你走吧！”“哦，爱，我实在太悲哀了，想自己一个人呆一会！”悲哀答道。

快乐走过爱的身边，但是她太快乐了，竟然没有听到爱在叫她！

突然，一个声音传来：“过来！爱，我带你走。”这是一位长者。爱大喜过望，竟忘了问他的名字。登上陆地以后，长者独自走开了。爱问知识老人：“帮我的那个人是谁？”“他是时间。”知识老人答道。“时间？”爱问道，“为什么他要帮我？”知识老人笑道：“因为只有时间才能理解爱有多么伟大。”
