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.
尝闻世有疑,不知当今美利坚凡事皆可成就耶?开国先贤之志方岿然于世耶?民主之伟力不减于昔年耶?凡存诸疑者,今夕当可释然。
It’s the answer spoken by young and old, rich and poor, Democrat and Republican, black, white,Hispanic, Asian, Native American, gay, straight, disabled and not disabled. Americans who sent a message to the world that we have never been just a collection of individuals or a collection of red states and blue states. We are, and always will be, the United States of America.
今夕之释然,皆仰吾国同胞之齐心——何谈贫富老幼之差、党社宗族之异,惶论发肤肌体之别、志趣爱恶之分。吾国既以“合众”为名,吾辈则更无疏离之意,红蓝二党并肩而立,数十邦州挽手相合,无分你我,共称一家,昂然于世,齐声一呼,天下乃有此释然。
It’s the answer that led those who’ve been told for so long by so many to be cynical and fearful and doubtful about 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.
今夕之释然,皆因愤懑者之镇静,忧惧者之勇气,犹疑者之笃定——平素世间种种,消磨其志向,溃灭其梦想,而值此风云之际,除旧更新,当仁不让,倾力而动乾坤者,更何人哉!
And I would not be standing here tonight without the unyielding support of my best friend for the last 16 years the rock of our family, the love of my life, the nation’s next first lady Michelle Obama.
拙荆米氏,追随鄙人凡一十六年,既为爱侣,更为挚友,既为吾阖家之基石,又乃余终生之至爱。鄙人尝自忖度,倘无贤妻若此,今朝阔论高谈于此处者,不知何人矣!
But above all, Iwill never forget who this victory truly belongs to. It belongs to you. It belongs to you.
至于鄙人铭之肺腑,须臾不敢忘怀者,则诸位也。盖今日鄙人之胜绩,实诸位之胜绩,鄙人之荣光,实诸位之荣光!
The road ahead will be long. Our climb will be steep. We may not get there in one year or even in one term. But, America, I have never been more hopeful than I am tonight that we will get there. I promise you, we as a people will get there.
渺渺乎其远,如不可达,危危乎其高,若不可攀。朝夕岁月,焉得成就?余不揣愚钝,愿以四载韶华,付诸此业,胜算何如虽不可知,然昂扬必胜之奇志,成就伟业之壮怀,平生未之有也。君子一诺,其重何如,此地今夕,愿斗胆发一狂言——吾辈既在,其事必成!
This victory aloneis not the change we seek. It is only the chance for us to make that change.And that can not happen if we go back to the way things were. It can’t happen
without you, without a new spirit of service, a new spirit of sacrifice.
昔年冬日,余有志于斯,投身此业,屈指算来,倏然近二载矣。当此秋夜,追思反省,仍无溃退逃亡之意。选战之胜,无非一役之功,余梦寐所思矢志所求者,非在乎此。溯源究本,此役之胜,不过革世变时一大好良机耳。倘止步于斯,垂手而待,或无诸君倾力相援,则壮志丰功,无非泡影,诸般梦想,终必虚妄。
To those Americans whose support I have yet to earn, I may not have won your vote tonight, but I hear your voices. I need your help. And I will be your president, too.
固然,仍有四方志士,不为鄙人所动,另有高明之选。虽终悭此一票之缘,然诸君高论,余亦声声在耳,字字在心。倘能得诸君之援手,鄙人幸甚。他日待余总而统之,亦必不另眼以待也。
She was born just a generation past slavery; a time when there were no cars on the road or planes in the sky; when someone like her couldn’t vote for two reasons — because she was a woman and because of the color of her skin.
当其父辈之时,天道不彰,黑人为奴。库氏其生也不逢时,汽车尚不行于道,飞机未曾起于空,库氏既属黑人,又系女流,票选一事,概无瓜葛。
Thank you. God bless you. And may God bless the United States of America.
拜谢诸君。愿天佑吾民,天佑吾邦。
