美国总统奥巴马胜选演讲稿(中英文)

美国总统奥巴马胜选演讲稿(中英文)超过10万人4日深夜把美国芝加哥格兰特公园变成狂欢的海洋。

当选总统贝拉克奥巴马在这里向支持者宣布:“变革已降临美国。

”他在这篇获胜演说中承诺推进“变革”,但呼吁支持者付出耐心,甚至提及连任。

If there is anyone out there who still doubts that America is a place where all things are possible, who still wonders if the dream of our founders is alive in our time, who still questions the power of our democracy, tonight is your answer.如果,还有人怀疑美国是一切皆有可能的国度,还有人怀疑国父们的梦想在我们的时代是否还存在,还有人怀疑我们的民主所拥有的力量,那么今晚,你听到了回答。

It’s the answer told by lines that stretched around schools and churches in numbers this nation has never seen, by people who waited three hours and four hours, many for the first time in their lives, because they believed that this time must be different, that their voices could be that difference.是那些今天在学校和教堂排着长队、数不胜数的选民做出了回答;是那些为了投票等待了三四个小时的人们做出了回答。

他们中的很多人,是有生以来第一次投票,因为他们相信,这次真的不同――他们的声音会让这次不同。

(完整word版)奥巴马传奇演讲AMorePerfectUnion一个更完美的城邦中英对译

A More Perfect UnionRemarks of Senator Barack ObamaPhiladelphia, PA | March 18, 2008为了更完美的联邦巴拉克·奥巴马2008年3月18日在美国宾夕法尼亚州费城的演讲海星译"We the people, in order to form a more perfect union."“我们[美利坚合众国的]人民,为缔造一个更完美的联邦。

”Two hundred and twenty one years ago, in a hall that still stands across the street, a group of men gathered and, with these simple words, launched America's improbable experiment in democracy. Farmers and scholars; statesmen and patriots who had traveled across an ocean to escape tyranny and persecution finally made real their declaration of independence at a Philadelphia convention that lasted through the spring of 1787.221年前,一群人聚集在至今仍屹立在这条街上的市政厅里,用上述这样简洁的言语,发起了美利坚不可思议的民主实验。

农场主和学者,政治家与爱国者们为逃脱政治专制和宗教迫害,横渡大洋,最终在费城会议上发表了他们的独立宣言。

——这一会议一直延续了1787年的春天。

The document they produced was eventually signed but ultimately unfinished. It was stained by this nation's original sin of slavery, a question that divided the colonies and brought the convention to a stalemate until the founders chose to allow the slave trade to continue for at least twenty more years, and to leave any final resolution to future generations.他们讨论出的文件得以签署通过但尚未最终完成。

The text of Barack Obama's victory speech in fullIf there is anyone out there who still doubts that America is a place where all things are possible; who still wonders if the dream of our founders is alive in our time; who still questions the power of our democracy, tonight is your answer.It’s the answer told by lines that stretched around schools and churches in numbers this nation has never seen; by people who waited three hours and four hours, many for the very first time in their lives, because they believed that this time must be different; that their voice could be that difference.It’s the answer spoken by young and old, rich and poor, Democrat and Republican, black, white, Latino, Asian, Native American, gay, straight, disabled and not disabled – Americans who sent a message to the world that we have never been a collection of Red States and Blue States: we are, and always will be, the United States of America.It’s the answer that led those who have been told for so long by so many to be cynical, and fearful, and doubtful of what we can achieve to put their hands on the arc of history and bend it once more toward the hope of a better day.It’s been a long time coming, but tonight, because of what we did on this day, in this election, at this defining moment, change has come to America.I just received a very gracious call from Senator McCain. He fought long and hard in this campaign, and he’s fought even longer and harder for the country he loves. He has endured sacrifices for America that most of us cannot begin to imagine, and we are better off for the service rendered by this brave and selfless leader. I congratulate him and Governor Palin for all they have achieved, and I look forward to working with them to renew this nation’s promise in the months ahead.I want to thank my partner in this journey, a man who campaigned from his heart and spoke for the men and women he grew up with on the streets of Scranton and rode with on that train home to Delaware, the Vice President-elect of the United States, Joe Biden.I would not be standing here tonight without the unyielding support of my best friend for the last sixteen years, the rock of our family and the love of my life, our nation’s next First Lady, Michelle Obama. Sasha and Malia, I love you both so much, and you have earned the new puppy that’s coming with us to the White House. And while she’s no longer with us, I know my grandmother is watching, along with the family that made me who I am. I miss them tonight, and know that my debt to them is beyond measure.To my campaign manager David Plouffe, my chief strategist David Axelrod, and the best campaign team ever assembled in the history of politics – you made this happen, and I am forever grateful for what you’ve sacrificed to get it done.But above all, I will never forget who this victory truly belongs to – it belongs to you.I was never the likeliest candidate for this office. We didn’t start with much money or many endorsements. Our campaign was not hatched in the halls of Washington – it began in the backyards of Des Moines and the living rooms of Concord and the front porches of Charleston.It was built by working men and women who dug into what little savings they had to give five dollars and ten dollars and twenty dollars to this cause. It grew strength from the young people who rejected the myth of their generation’s apathy; who left their homes and their families for jobs that offered little pay and less sleep; from the not-so-young people who braved the bitter cold and scorching heat to knock on the doors of perfect strangers; from the millions of Americans who volunteered, and organized, and proved that more than two centuries later, a government of the people, by the people and for the people has not perished from this Earth. This is your victory.I know you didn’t do this just to win an election and I know you didn’t do it for me. You did it because you understand the enormity of the task that lies ahead. For even as we celebrate tonight, we know the challenges that tomorrow will bring are the greatest of our lifetime – two wars, a planet in peril, the worst financial crisis in a century. Even as we stand here tonight, we know there are brave Americans waking up in the deserts of Iraq and the mountains of Afghanistan to risk their lives for us. There are mothers and fathers who will lie awake after their children fall asleep and wonder how they’ll make the mortgage, or pay their doctor’s bills, or save enough for college. There is new energy to harness and new jobs to be created; new schools to build and threats to meet and alliances to repair.(中⽂)美国是否暗藏⼀切皆有可能的巨⼤潜⼒?美国是否已经实现开国者锻造的美国梦?民主信仰是否具有强⼤⼒量?如果还有⼈对此报以怀疑,那么今晚这⾥发⽣的⼀切就是答案。

奥巴马就职演讲(中英文双译)

奥巴马就职演讲(中英文双译)第一篇:奥巴马就职演讲(中英文双译)亲爱的公民同胞们:今天我站在这裡﹐面对眼前的任务﹐深感卑微。

感谢你们给予我的信任﹐我也清楚前辈们為这个国家所作的牺牲。

我要感谢布什总统对国家的服务﹐感谢他在两届政府过渡期间给予的慷慨协作。

时至今日﹐已有44位美国总统宣誓就职。

总统的宣誓有时面对的是国家的和平繁荣﹐有时面临的是狂风骤雨的紧张形势。

在这种时刻﹐支持美国前进的不仅仅是领导人的能力和远见﹐更是美国人民对先驱者理想的坚定信仰﹐以及对美国建国宣言的忠诚。

过去是这样﹐我们这一代美国人也要如此。

我们都狠清楚﹐我们正处於危机之中。

我们的国家正在对触角广泛的暴力和仇恨网络宣战。

国家的经济也受到了严重的削弱﹐这是一些人贪婪和不负责任的后果﹐但在做出艰难选择和準备迎接新时代方面﹐我们出现了集体性的失误。

家园失去了﹔工作丢掉了﹔商业萧条了。

我们的医疗卫生耗资巨大﹔我们的学校让许多人失望﹔每天都能找到更多的证据表明我们利用能源的方式使得对手更加强大﹐并且威胁到了我们整个星球。

这些﹐是从数据和统计中可以看到的危机信号。

而更难以衡量但同样意义深远的是美国人自信心的丧失──现在一种认為美国衰落不可避免﹐我们的下一代必须降低期待的恐惧正在吞噬着我们的自信。

今天我要向你们说的是﹐我们面临的挑战是真实存在的。

这些挑战狠多﹐也狠严重﹐它们不会轻易地或者在短时间内就得以克服。

但记住这一点:美国终将渡过难关。

今天﹐我们聚集在这裡﹐是因為我们选择了希望而不是恐惧﹐团结而不是冲突与争执。

今天﹐我们在这裡宣佈要為无谓的抱怨、不实的承诺和指责画上句号﹐我们要打破牵制美国政治发展的陈旧教条。

我们仍是一个年轻的国家﹐但借用《圣经》的话说﹐摒弃幼稚的时代已经来临。

是时候重树我们坚韧的精神﹔选择我们更好的歷史﹔弘扬那些珍贵的天赋和高尚的理念﹐并代代传承下去﹐即上帝赋予的信念:天下眾生皆平等﹐眾生皆自由﹐且均应有追求最大幸福的机会。

Tonight, in this election, you, the American people, reminded us that while our road has been hard,while our journey has been long, we have picked ourselves up, we have fought our way back, and we know in our hearts that for the United States of America the best is yet to come.今夜,在此次选举中,你们这些美国人民提醒我们,虽然我们的道路一直艰难,虽然我们的旅程一直漫长,但我们已经让自己振作起来,我们已经发起反击,我们在自己内心深处知道,对美利坚合众国来说,最美好一切属于未来。

Forty-four Americans have now taken the presidential oath. The words have been spoken during rising tides of prosperity and the still waters of peace. Yet, every so often, the oath is taken amidst gathering clouds and raging storms. At these moments, America has carried on not simply because of the skill or vision of those in high office, but because We the People have remained faithful to the ideals of our forebearers, and true to our founding documents.四十四位美国人发表过总统就职誓言,这些誓词或是在繁荣富强及和平宁静之际发表,或是在乌云密布,时局动荡之时。

Each time we gather to inaugurate a president, we bear witness to the enduring strength of our Constitution. We affirm the promise of our democracy. We recall that what binds this nation together is not the colors of our skin or the tenets of our faith or the origins of our names. What makes us exceptional –what makes us American –is our allegiance to an idea, articulated in a declaration made more than two centuries ago:当我们每次聚集在一起为总统举行就职典礼时,我们都是在见证美国宪法的不朽力量。

奥巴马北京演讲稿中英文对照奥巴马欧巴马和胡锦涛于月7日在北京举行联合新闻记者会,分别发表讲话.奥巴马总统的讲话全文,英语演讲稿+翻译.PRESIDENT OBAMA: Good afternoon. I want to start by thanking President Hu and the Chinese people for the warmth and hospitality that they have shown myself and our delegation since we arrived. We had a wonderful day in Shanghai yesterday, a wonderful discu ssion with China’s young men and women, and I’m looking forward to the conversations we’ll have and the sights that we’ll see here in Beijing over the next two days.奥巴马总统:下午好.首先我要感谢胡主席和中国人民从我们到来后给予我和代表团的热情款待.昨天,我们在上海度过了非常愉快的一天,同中国男女青年进行了一次十分愉快的讨论.我期待着我们今明两天将在北京进行的会谈和景点参观.We meet here at a time when the relationship between the United States and China has never been more important to our collective future. The major challenges of the 2st century, from climate change to nuclear proliferation to economic recovery, are challenges that touch both our nations, and challenges that neither of our nations can solve by acting alone.我们是在美中关系对我们的共同未来具有前所未有的重要性的时刻在这里举行会晤.2世纪的各项重大挑战,无论是气候变化、核扩散还是经济复苏,都与我们两个国家相关,而且哪个国家都不能通过单独行动来对付这些挑战.That’s why the United States welcomes China’s efforts in playing a greater role on the world stage -- a role in which a growing economy is joined by growing responsibilities. And that’s why President Hu and I talked about continuing to build a positive, cooperative, and comprehensive relationship between our nations.这就是为什么美国欢迎中国努力在世界舞台上发挥更大的作用——这个作用意味着伴随经济发展而增长的责任.这也就是为什么胡主席和我都谈到要继续建立积极合作全面的美中关系.As President Hu indicated, we discussed what’s required to sustain this economic recovery so that economic growth is followed by the creation of new jobs and lasting prosperity. So far China’s partnership has proved critical in our effort to pull ourselves out of the worst recession in generations.如胡主席所说,我们讨论了要使经济复苏持续所必须采取的措施,以便使经济增长带来新的就业机会,实现持久繁荣.迄今,与中国的伙伴关系被证明在我们为摆脱几代人以来最严重的衰退所作的努力中至关重要.Going forward, we agreed to advance the pledge made at the G20 summit in Pittsburgh and pursue a strategy of more balanced economic growth -- a strategy where America saves more, spends less, reduces our long-term debt, and where China makes adjustments across a broad range of policies to rebalance its economy and spur domestic demand. This will lead to increased U.S. exports and jobs, on the one hand, and higher living standards in China on the other.展望未来,我们同意推进我们在匹兹堡20国集团峰会上所作的保证,实施经济更平衡增长的策略.根据这一策略,美国要增加储蓄,降低消费,减少长期债务,而中国则要进行各项政策调整以平衡经济,刺激内需.这样,将一方面增加美国的出口和就业机会,另一方面提高中国的生活水平.As President Hu indicated, we also agreed that maintaining open market and free flows of commerce in both our nations will contribute to our shared prosperity. And I was pleased to note the Chinese commitment, made in past statements, to move toward a more market-oriented exchange rate over time. I emphasized in our discussions, and have others in the region, that doing so based on economic fundamentals would make an essential contribution to the global rebalancing effort.如胡主席所说,我们还一致认为,保持我们两国市场的开放和商贸的自由流通将能增进我们的共同繁荣.我很高兴地注意到,中国多次表示了对逐步实现在更大程度上由市场决定汇率的承诺.我在双方以及在与地区其他各方的讨论中强调,这样按照基本经济原理行事将是对全球经济的重新平衡的重大贡献.President Hu and I also made progress on the issue of climate change. As the two largest consumers and producers of energy, there can be no solution to this challenge without the efforts of both China and the United States. That’s why we’ve agreed to a series of important new initiatives in this area. As President Hu indicated, we are creating a joint clean energy research center, and have achieved agreements on energy efficiency, renewable energy, cleaner uses of coal, electric vehicles, and shale gas.胡主席和我在气候变化问题上也取得了进展.作为能源的最大消费国和生产国,没有中美两国的共同努力就无法成功地应对这一挑战.因此我们同意在这一领域采取一系列新的重要行动.胡主席已说明,我们将设立一个清洁能源联合研究中心,我们还就能效、可再生能源、清洁使用煤炭、电动车辆和页岩气等问题达成一致.We also agreed to work toward a successful outcome in Copenhagen. Our aim there, in support of what Prime Minister Rasmussen of Denmark is trying to achieve, is not a partial accord or a political declaration, but rather an accord that covers all of the issues in the negotiations, and one that has immediate operational effect. This kind of comprehensive agreement would be an important step forward in the effort to rally the world around a solution to our climate challenge. And we agreed that each of us would take significant mitigation actions and stand behind these commitments.我们还同意为哥本哈根会议取得成果而努力.为支持丹麦首相拉斯穆森Rasmussen所争取实现的目标,我们将不是致力于一项局部性的协议,也不是一份政治宣言,而是一项包含谈判涉及的所有问题的协议,一项可立即运作的协议.这样的全面协议将使动员全世界共同应对气候挑战的努力向前跨出重要一步.我们同意,双方都将采取重大的减缓行动,坚定地履行这些承诺.On the issue of nonproliferation, President Hu and I discussed our shared commitment to stop the spread of nuclear weapons, and I told him how appreciative I am of China’s support for the global nonproliferation regime as well as the verifiable elimination of North Korea’s nuclear weapons program.在防扩散问题上,胡主席和我讨论了制止核武器扩散的共同承诺,我向胡主席表示了我对中国支持全球防扩散制度和可验证地消除北韩核武器项目的极大赞赏.We agreed on the importance of resuming the six-party talks as soon as possible. As I said in Tokyo, North Korea has a choice: It can continue down the path of confrontation and provocation that has led to less security, less prosperity, and more isolation from the global community, or it can choose to become a full member of the international community, which will give a better life to its people by living up to international obligations and foregoing nuclear weapons.我们一致认为尽快恢复六方会谈是重要的.正如我在东京说过的,北韩面临一个选择:它可以继续沿着对峙挑衅的道路走下去,结果只会是安全更少,繁荣更小,在全球社会中更加孤立;它也可以选择成为国际社会的正式成员,恪守国际义务,放弃核武器,让自己的人民过上更好的生活.In the same way, we agreed that the Islamic Republic of Iran must provide assurances to the international community that its nuclear program is peaceful and transparent. On this point, our two nations and the rest of our P5-plus- partners are unified. Iran has an opportunity to present and demonstrate its peaceful intentions, but if it fails to take this opportunity there will be consequences.同样地,我们也一致认为伊朗伊斯兰共和国必须向国际社会提供保证,保证其核项目是和平而且透明的.在这一点上,我们两国和五常加一的其他伙伴国意见一致.伊朗有此机会展示和表明其和平的目的,但如果它没能利用这次机会,则将面临后果.President Hu and I also discussed our mutual interest in security and stability of Afghanistan and Pakistan. And neither country can or should be used as a base for terrorism, and we agreed to cooperate more on meeting this goal, including bringing about more stable, peaceful relations in all of South Asia.胡锦涛主席和我还讨论了我们对阿富汗和巴基斯坦的安全和稳定的共同利益.这两个国家都不能也不应该成为恐怖分子的基地.我们同意为达到这个目标加深合作,包括在整个南亚建设更稳定、和平的关系.Finally, as I did yesterday in Shanghai, I spoke to President Hu about America’s bedrock beliefs that all men and women possess certain fundamental human rights. Wedo not believe these principles are unique to America, but rather they are universal rights and that they should be available to all peoples, to all ethnic and religious minorities. And our two countries agreed to continue to move this discussion forward in a human rights dialogue that is scheduled for early next year.最后,如同我昨天在上海时一样,我向胡锦涛主席谈了美国的基本信念,即人人都有某些最基本的人权.我们不认为这些原则是美国特有的,它们是普遍的权利.各国人民,各个少数民族和宗教少数派都应该享有.我们两国同意在定于明年年初举行的人权对话中继续推动这种讨论.As President Hu indicated, the United States respects the sovereignty and territorial integrity of China. And once again, we have reaffirmed our strong commitment to a one-China policy.正如胡锦涛主席指出的那样,美国尊重中国的主权和领土完整.我们再次重申对一个中国政策的承诺.We did note that while we recognize that Tibet is part of the People’s Republic of China, the United States supports the early resumption of dialogue between the Chinese government and representatives of the Dalai Lama to resolve any concerns and differenc es that the two sides may have. We also applauded the steps that the People’s Republic of China and Taiwan have already taken to relax tensions and build ties across the Taiwan Strait.我们的确指出,尽管我们承认西藏是中华人民共和国的一部分,但美国支持中国政府与达赖喇嘛的代表早日恢复对话,以解决双方存在的担忧和分歧.我们也对中华人民共和国和台湾已经采取的缓和紧张局势和建立海峡两岸联系的步骤表示赞赏.Our own policy, based on the three communiqués and the Taiwan Relations Act, supports the further development of these ties -- ties that are in the interest of both sides, as well as the broader region and the United States.基于美中三个联合公报和台湾关系法,我们自身的政策是支持继续发展这些关系——这些关系有利于双方,有利于更广大的地区和美国.These are just some of the issues that President Hu and I discussed. But we also know that the relationship between our two nations goes far beyond any single issue. In this young century, the jobs we do, the prosperity we build, the environment we protect, the security that we seek, all these things are shared.这些只是胡锦涛主席和我讨论的问题的一部分.但是,我们也知道,我们两国的关系远远超出任何单一问题.置身这个世纪的初期,我们所做的工作,所创建的繁荣,所保护的环境,所寻求的安全——所有这一切都是共同分享的.Given that interconnection, I do not believe that one country’s success must come at the expense of another. That’s why the United States welcomes China as a strong, prosperous and successful member of the community of nations.鉴于这种相互关联,我不认为一个国家的成功必须以牺牲另一个国家的利益为代价.这就是为什么美国欢迎中国成为国际社会中一个强大、繁荣和成功的成员.Our relationship going forward will not be without disagreement or difficulty. But because of our cooperation, both the United States and China are more prosperous and secure. We’ve seen what’s possible when we build upon our mutual interes ts and engage on the basis of equality and mutual respect. And I very much look forward to deepening that engagement and understanding during this trip and in the months and years to come.我们未来的关系不会没有分歧和困难.但由于我们的合作,美国和中国都更繁荣、更安全.我们已经看到,当我们在互利的基础上发展、在平等和相互尊重的基础上往来时能够取得什么样的成果.我非常期待在这次访问中和在未来的岁月里,加深这种交往和理解.。

MR. OBAMA: Thank you. Thank you so much. Vice President Biden, Mr. ChiefJustice, Members of the United States Congress, distinguished guests, and fellowcitizens:谢谢,非常感谢大家。

拜登副总统、首席大法官先生、国会议员们、尊敬的各位嘉宾、亲爱的公民们。

Each time we gather to inaugurate a president, we bear witness to theenduring strength of our Constitution. We affirm the promise of our democracy.We recall that what binds this nation together is not the colors of our skin orthe tenets of our faith or the origins of our names. What makes us exceptional –what makes us American –is our allegiance to an idea, articulated in adeclaration made more than two centuries ago:每一次我们集会庆祝总统就职都是在见证美国宪法的持久力量。

我们都是在肯定美国民主的承诺。

我们重申,将这个国家紧密联系在一起的不是我们的肤色,也不是我们信仰的教条,更不是我们名字的来源。

Keynote Address at the2004Democratic National Convention:The Audacity of Hope July27,2004On behalf of the great state of Illinois,crossroads of a nation,land of Lincoln,let me express my deepest gratitude for the privilege of addressing this convention.Tonight is a particular honor for me because,let's face it,my presence on this stage is pretty unlikely.My father was a foreign student,born and raised in a small village in Kenya. He grew up herding goats,went to school in a tin-roof shack.His father,my grandfather,was a cook,a domestic s ervan t to the British.But my grandfather had larger dreams for his son.Through hard work and perseverance my father got a scholarship to study in a magical place:America,that shone as a beacon of fr eedom and opportunity to so many who had come before. While studying here,my father met my mother.She was born in a town on the other side of the world,in Kansas.Her father worked on oil rigs and farms through most of the Depression.The day after Pearl Harbor my grandfather s igned up for duty,joined Patton's army and marched across Europe.Back home,my grandmother raised their baby and went to work on a bomber assembly line.After the war,they studied on the GI Bill,bought a house through FHA,and later moved west all the way to Hawaii in search of opportunity.And they,too,had big dreams for their daughter,a common dream,born of two continents.My parents shared not only an improbable love;they shared an abiding faith in the possibilities of this nation.They would give me an African name,Barack, or"blessed,"believing that in a tolerant America your name is no barrier to success. They imagined me going to the best schools in the land,even though they weren't rich, because in a generous America you don't have to be rich to achieve your potential. They are both passed away now.Yet,I know that,on this night,they look down on me with great pride.They stand here,and I stand here today,grateful for the diversity of my heritage, aware that my parents'dreams live on in my two precious daughters.I stand here knowing that my story is part of the larger American story,that I owe a debt to all of those who came before me,and that,in no other country on earth,is my story even possible.Tonight,we gather to affirm the greatness of our nation,not because of the height of our skyscrapers,or the power of our military,or the size of our economy. Our pride is based on a very simple premise,summed up in a declaration made over two hundred years ago,"We hold these truths to be self-evident,that all men are created equal.That they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights. That among these are life,liberty and the pursuit of happiness."That is the true genius of America,a faith in the simple dreams,the insist ence on small miracles.That we can tuck in our children at night and know they are fed and clothed and safe from harm.That we can say what we think,write what we think, without hearing a sudden knock on the door.That we can have an idea and start our own business without paying a bribe or hiring somebody's so n.That we can participate in the political process without fear of retribution,and that our votes will he counted-or at least,most of the time.This year,in this election,we are called to reaffirm our values and commitments,to hold them against a hard reality and see how we are measuring up,to the legacy of our forbearers,and the promise of future generations.And fellow Americans-Democrats,Republicans,Independents-I say to you tonight:we have more work to do.More work to do for the workers I met in Galesburg,Illinois,who are losing their union jobs at the Maytag plant that's moving to Mexico,and now are having to compete with their own children for jobs that pay seven bucks an hour.More to do for the father I met who was losing his job and choking back tears,wondering how he would pay$4,500a month for the drugs his son needs without the health benefits he counted on.More to do for the young woman in East St.Louis,and thousands more like her,who has the grades,has the drive,has the will,but doesn't have the money togo to college.Don't get me wrong.The people I meet in small towns and big cities,in diners and office parks,they don't expect government to solve all their problems.They know they have to work hard to get ahead and they want to.Go into the collar counties around Chicago,and people will tell you they don't want their tax money wasted by a welfare agency or the Pentagon.Go into any inner city neighborhood,and folks will tell you that government alone can't teach kids to learn.They know that parents have to parent,that children can't achieve unless we raise their expectations and turn off the television sets and eradicate the slander that says a black youth with a book is acting white.No,p eople don't expect government to solve all their problems.But they sense, deep in their bones,that with just a slight change in priorities,we can make sure that every child in America has a decent shot at life,and that the doors of opportunity remain open to all.They know we can do better.And they want that choice.A while back,I met a young man named Shamus at the VFW Hall in East Moline, Illinois.He was a good-looking kid,six-two or six-three,clear-eyed,with an easy smile.He told me he'd joined the Marines and was heading to Iraq the following week. As I listened to him explain why he'd enlisted,his absolute faith in our country and its leaders,his devotion to duty and service,I thought this young man was all any of us might hope for in a child.But then I asked myself:Are we serving Shamus as well as he was serving us?I thought of more than900service men and women,sons and daughters,husbands and wives,friends and neighbors,who won’t be returning to their hometowns.I thought of families I had met who were struggling to get by without a loved one's full income,or whose loved ones had returned with a limb missing or with nerves shattered,but who still lacked long-term health benefits because they were reservists.When we send our young men and women into harm's way,we have a solemn obligation not to fudge the numbers or shade the truth about why they're going, to care for their families while they're gone,to tend to the soldiers upon their return, and to never ever go to war without enough troops to win the war,secure the peace,and earn the respect of the world.Now let me be clear.We have real enemies in the world.These enemies must be found.They must be pursued and they must be defeated.John Kerry knows this.And just as Lieutenant Kerry did not hesitate to risk his life to protect the men who served with him in Vietnam,President Kerry will not hesitate one moment to use our military might to keep America safe and secure.John Kerry believes in America.And he knows it's not enough for just some of us to prosper.For alongside our famous individualism,there's another ingredient in the American saga.A belief that we are connected as one people.If there's a child on the south side of Chicago who can't read,that matters to me,even if it's not my child.If there's a senior citizen somewhere who can't pay for her prescription and has to choose between medicine and the rent,that makes my life poorer,even if it's not my grandmother.If there's an Arab American family being rounded up without benefit of an attorney or due process,that threatens my civil liberties.It's that fundamental belief-I am my brother's keeper,I am my sister's keeper-that makes this country work.It's what allows us to pursue our individual dreams,yet still come together as a single American family."E pluribus unum."Out of many,one.Yet even as we speak,there are those who are preparing to divide us,the spin masters and negative ad peddlers who embrace the politics of anything goes.Well,I say to them tonight,there's not a liberal America and a conservative America-there's the United States of America.There's not a black America and white America and Latino America and Asian America;there's the United States of America.The pundits like to slice-and-dice our country into Red States and Blue States;Red States for Republicans,Blue States for Democrats.But I've got news for them,too.We worship an awesome God in the Blue States,and we don't like federal agents poking around our libraries in the Red States.We coach Little League in the Blue States and have gay friends in the Red States.There are patriots who opposed the war in Iraq andpatriots who supported it.We are one people,all of us pledging allegiance to the stars and stripes,all of us defending the United States of America.In the end,that's what this election is about.Do we participate in a politics of cynicism or a politics of hope?I'm not talking about blind optimism here-the almost willful ignorance that thinks unemployment will go away if we just don't talk about it, or the health care crisis will solve itself if we just ignore it.No,I'm talking about something more substantial.It's the hope of slaves sitting around a fire singing freedom songs;the hope of immigrants setting out for distant shores;the hope of a young naval lieutenant bravely patrolling the Mekong Delta;the hope of a millworker's son who dares to defy the odds;the hope of a skinny kid with a funny name who believes that America has a place for him,too.The audacity of hope!In the end,that is God's greatest gift to us,the bedrock of this nation;the belief in things not seen;the belief that there are better days ahead.I believe we can give our middle class relief and provide working families with a road to opportunity.I believe we can provide jobs to the jobless,homes to the homeless,and reclaim young people in cities across America from violence and despair.I believe that as we stand on the crossroads of history,we can make the right choices,and meet the challenges that face us.Thank you very much everybody and God bless you.基调演讲摘自《巴拉克·奥巴马》。

美国第44任总统奥巴马就职典礼中英文对照第一篇:美国第44任总统奥巴马就职典礼中英文对照美国第44任总统奥巴马就职典礼中英文对照Barack Obama's Inaugural Address My fellow citizens:I stand here today humbled by the task before us, grateful for the trust you have bestowed, mindful of the sacrifices borne by our ancestors.I thank President Bush for his service to our nation, as well as the generosity and cooperation he has shown throughout this transition.Forty-four Americans have now taken the presidential oath.The words have been spoken during rising tides of prosperity and the still waters of peace.Yet, every so often the oath is taken amidst gathering clouds and raging storms.At these moments, America has carried on not simply because of the skill or vision of those in high office, but because We the People have remained faithful to the ideals of our forbearers, and true to our founding documents.So it has been.So it must be with this generation of Americans.That we are in the midst of crisis is now well understood.Our nation is at war, against a far-reaching network of violence and hatred.Our economy is badly weakened, a consequence of greed and irresponsibility on the part of some, but also our collective failure to make hard choices and prepare the nation for a new age.Homes have been lost;jobs shed;businesses shuttered.Our health care is too costly;our schools fail too many;and each day brings further evidence that the ways we use energy strengthen our adversaries and threaten our planet.These are the indicators of crisis, subject to data and statistics.Less measurable but no less profound is a sapping of confidence across our landthey will be met.On this day, we gather because we have chosen hope over fear, unity of purpose overconflict and discord.On this day, we come to proclaim an end to the petty grievances and false promises, the recriminations and worn out dogmas, that for far too long have strangled our politics.We remain a young nation, but in the words of Scripture, the time has come to set aside childish things.The time has come to reaffirm our enduring spirit;to choose our better history;to carry forward that precious gift, that noble idea, passed on from generation to generation: the God-given promise that all are equal, all are free, and all deserve a chance to pursue their full measure of happiness.In reaffirming the greatness of our nation, we understand that greatness is never a given.It must be earned.Our journey has never been one of short-cuts or settling for less.It has not been the path for the faint-heartedsome celebrated but more often men and women obscure in their labor, who have carried us up the long, rugged path towards prosperity and freedom.For us, they packed up their few worldly possessions and traveled across oceans in search of a new life.For us, they toiled in sweatshops and settled the West;endured the lash of the whip and plowed the hard earth.For us, they fought and died, in places like Concord and Gettysburg;Normandy and Khe Sanh.Time and again these men and women struggled and sacrificed and worked till their hands were raw so that we might live a better life.They saw America as bigger than the sum of our individual ambitions;greater than all the differences of birth or wealth or faction.This is the journey we continue today.We remain the most prosperous, powerful nation on Earth.Our workers are no less productive than when this crisis began.Our minds are no less inventive, our goods and services no less needed than they were last week or last month or last year.Our capacity remains undiminished.But our time of standing pat, ofprotecting narrow interests and putting off unpleasant decisionsnot only to create new jobs, but to lay a new foundation for growth.We will build the roads and bridges, the electric grids and digital lines that feed our commerce and bind us together.We will restore science to its rightful place, and wield technology’s wonders to raise health care’s quality and lower its cost.We will harness the sun and the winds and the soil to fuel our cars and run our factories.And we will transform our schools and colleges and universities to meet the demands of a new age.All this we can do.And all this we will do.Now, there are some who question the scale of our ambitionsthat the stale political arguments that have consumed us for so long no longer apply.The question we ask today is not whether our government is too big or too small, but whether it worksto spend wisely, reform bad habits, and do our business in the light of dayand that a nation cannot prosper long when it favors only the prosperous.The success of our economy has always depended not just on the size of our Gross Domestic Product, but on the reach of our prosperity;on our ability to extend opportunity to every willing hearteven greater cooperation and understanding between nations.We will begin to responsibly leave Iraq to its people, and forge a hard-earned peace in Afghanistan.With old friends and former foes, we will work tirelessly to lessen the nuclear threat, and roll back the specter of a warming planet.We will not apologize for our way of life, nor will we waver in its defense, and for those who seek to advance their aims by inducing terror and slaughtering innocents, we say to you now that our spirit is stronger and cannot be broken;you cannot outlast us, and we will defeat you.For we know that our patchwork heritage is a strength, not a weakness.We are a nationof Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindusknow that your people will judge you on what you can build, not what you destroy.To those who cling to power through corruption and deceit and the silencing of dissent, know that you are on the wrong side of history;but that we will extend a hand if you are willing to unclench your fist.T o the people of poor nations, we pledge to work alongside you to make your farms flourish and let clean waters flow;to nourish starved bodies and feed hungry minds.And to those nations like ours that enjoy relative plenty, we say we can no longer afford indifference to suffering outside our borders;nor can we consume the world’s resources without regard to effect.For the world has changed, and we must change with it.As we consider the road that unfolds before us, we remember with humble gratitude those brave Americans who, at this very hour, patrol far-off deserts and distant mountains.They have something to tell us today, just as the fallen heroes who lie in Arlington whisper through the ages.We honor them not only because they are guardians of our liberty, but because they embody the spirit of service;a willingness to find meaning in something greater than themselves.And yet, at this momentit is precisely this spirit that must inhabit us all.For as much as government can do and must do, it is ultimately the faith and determination of the American people upon which this nation relies.It is the kindness to take in a stranger when the levees break, the selflessness of workers who would rather cut their hours than see a friend lose their job which sees us through our darkest hours.It is the firefighter’s cour age to storm a stairway filled with smoke, but also a parent’s willingness to nurture a child, that finally decides our fate.Our challenges may be new.The instruments with which we meet them may be new.But thosevalues upon which our success dependsthese things are old.These things are true.They have been the quiet force of progress throughout our history.What is demanded then is a return to these truths.What is required of us now is a new era of responsibilitythe knowledge that God calls on us to shape an uncertain destiny.This is the meaning of our liberty and our creed-why men and women and children of every race and every faith can join in celebration across this magnificent mall, and why a man whose father less than sixty years ago might not have been served at a local restaurant can now stand before you to take a most sacred oath.So let us mark this day with remembrance, of who we are and how far we have traveled.In the year of America’s birth, in the coldest of months, a small band of patriots huddled by dying campfires on the shores of an icy river.The capital was abandoned.The enemy was advancing.The snow was stained with blood.At a moment when the outcome of our revolution was most in doubt, the father of our nation ordered these words be read to the people: Let it be told to the future world...that in the depth of winter, when nothing but hope and virtue could survive...that the city and the country, alarmed at one common danger, came forth to meet [it].America.In the face of our common dangers, in this winter of our hardship, let us remember these timeless words.With hope and virtue, let us brave once more the icy currents, and endure what storms may come.Let it be said by our children’s children that when we were tested we refused to let this journey end, that we did not turn back nor did we falter;and with eyes fixed on the horizon and God’s grace upon us, we carried forth that great gift of freedom and delivered it safely to future generations.美国东部时间1月20日中午12时左右,美国第44任总统贝拉克·奥巴马发表就职演说,全文如下:我的同胞们:今天我站在这里,看到眼前面临的重大任务,深感卑微。

On this Memorial Day, as our nation honors its unbroken line of fallen heroes, our sense of patriotism is particularly strong. Because while we gather here under open skies, we know that far beyond the Organ Mountains – in the streets of Baghdad, and the outskirts of Kabul – America's sons and daughters are sacrificing on our behalf. And our thoughts and prayers are with them.I speak to you today with deep humility. My grandfather marched in Patton's Army, but I cannot know what it is to walk into battle like so many of you. My grandmother worked on a bomber assembly line, but I cannot know what it is for a family to sacrifice like so many of yours have.I am the father of two young girls, and I cannot imagine what it is to lose a child. My heart breaks for the families who've lost a loved one.These are things I cannot know. But there are also some things I do know.I know that our sadness today is mixed with pride; that those we've lost will be remembered by a grateful nation; and that our presence here today is only possible because your loved ones, America's patriots, were willing to give their lives to defend our nation.I know that while we may come from different places, cherish different traditions, and have different political beliefs, we all –every one of us – hold in reverence those who've given this country the full measure of their devotion.And I know that children in New Mexico and across this country look to your children, to your brothers and sisters, mothers and fathers, and friends –to those we honor today –as a shining example of what's best about America.Their lives are a model for us all.What led these men and women to wear their country's uniform? What is it that leads anyone to put aside their own pursuit of life's comforts; to subordinate their own sense of survival, for something bigger – something greater?Many of those we honor today were so young when they were killed. They had a whole life ahead of them – birthdays and weddings, holidays with children and grandchildren, homes and jobs and happiness of their own. And yet, at one moment or another, they felt the tug, just as generations of Americans did before them. Maybe it was a massacre in a Boston square; or a President's call to save the Union and free the slaves. Maybe it was the day of infamy that awakened a nation to a storm in the Pacific and a madman's death march across Europe. Or maybe it was the morning they woke up to see our walls of security crumble along with our two largest towers.Whatever the moment was, when it came and they felt that tug, perhaps it was simply the thought of a mom or a dad, a husband or a wife, or a child not yet born that made this young American think that it was time to go; that made them think "I must serve so that the people I love can live –in happiness, and safety, and freedom."This sense of service is what America is all about. It is what leads Americans to enter the military. It is what sustains them in the most difficult hours. And it is the safeguard of our security.You see, America has the greatest military in the history of the world. We have the best training, the most advanced technology, the most sophisticated planning, and the most powerful weapons. And yet, in the end, though each of these things is absolutely critical, the true strength of our military lies someplace else.It lies in the spirit of America's servicemen and women. No matter whether they faced down fascism or fought for freedom in Korea and Vietnam; liberated Kuwait or stopped ethnic cleansing in the Balkans or serve brilliantly and bravely under our flag today; no matter whether they are black, white, Latino, Asian, or Native American; whether they come from old military families, or are recent immigrants – their stories tell the same truth.It is not simply their bravery, their insistence on doing their part – whatever the cost – to make America more secure and our world more free. It's not simply an unflinching belief in our highest ideals. It's that in the thick of battle, when their very survival is threatened, America's sons and daughters aren't thinking about themselves, they're thinking about one another; they're risking everything to save not their own lives, but the lives of their fellow soldiers and sailors, airmen and Marines. And when we lose them – in a final act of selflessness and service – we know that they died so that their brothers and sisters, so that our nation, might live.What makes America's servicemen and women heroes is not just their sense of duty, honor, and country; it's the bigness of their hearts and the breadth of their compassion.That is what we honor today.Oliver Wendell Holmes once remarked that "To fight out a war, you must believe something and want something with all your might." The Americans we honor today believed. Sergeant Ryan Jopek believed. Ryan was just weeks away from coming home when he volunteered for a mission to Mosul from which he would never return. His friends remember his easy smile; I remember Ryan because of the bracelet his mother gave me that I wear every day. Next to his name, it reads: "All gave some – he gave all."It is a living reminder of our obligation as Americans to serve Ryan as well as he served us; as well as the wounded warriors I've had the honor of meeting at Walter Reed have served us; as well as the soldiers at Fort Bliss and the troops in Iraq, Afghanistan, and around the world are serving us. That means giving the same priority to building a 21st century VA as to building a 21st century military. It means having zero tolerance for veterans sleeping on our streets. It means bringing home our POWs and MIAs. And it means treating the graves of veterans like the hallowed ground it is and banning protests near funerals.But it also means something more. It means understanding that what Ryan and so many Americansfought and died for is not a place on a map or a certain kind of people. What they sacrificed for –what they gave all for – is a larger idea – the idea that a nation can be governed by laws, not men; that we can be equal in the eyes of those laws; that we can be free to say what we want, write what we want, and worship as we please; that we can have the right to pursue our own dreams, but the obligation to help our fellow Americans pursue theirs.So on this day, of all days, let's memorialize our fallen heroes by honoring all who wear our country's uniform; and by completing their work to make America more secure and our world more free. But let's also do our part – service-member and civilian alike – to live up to the idea that so many of our fellow citizens have consecrated – the idea of America. That is the essence of patriotism. That is the lesson of this solemn day. And that is the task that lies ahead. May God bless you, and may God bless the United States of America.巴拉克·奥巴马译者:徐达在今天这个阵亡将士纪念日,当我们国家缅怀其前赴后继牺牲的英雄时,我们的爱国主义情绪尤其强烈。
