xiāo

shou

소

逍 is a Chinese word that means leisurely or easy-going.

In some contexts, it can mean roaming or sauntering.

This can be pronounced as "shou" in Japanese but rarely seen as a single Kanji in Japan. This is better if your target audience is Chinese.

xiāo yáo

shou you

소요

逍遙 means freedom in Chinese characters.

This has a well-written meaning for a wall scroll. What I mean by that is while there is a way to say “freedom” orally, this word seems more appropriate for calligraphy. This can also be translated as “free and unfettered” in Chinese.

Note: In Korean and Japanese, this means one who rambles, saunters, or strolls (this entry is best if your audience is Chinese).
