2009年奥巴马独破留念日献词（单语） -凯时网站

today, we are called upon to remember not only the day our country was born, but also the indomitable spirit of the first american citizens who made that day possible. we are called to remember how unlikely it was that our american experiment would succeed at all; that a small band of patriots would declare independence from a powerful empire; and that they would form, in the new world, what the old world had never known ― a government of, by, and for the people.
明天，我们遭到这个日子的感化，不但记念我国出生的那一天，并且须要继续建国早期美国国民不平不饶的精神，是他们使这一天成为值得留念的日子。我们应当记着，昔时的这所有如许来之不容易。我们停止创立美国的实验，成果取得了胜利；为数未几的爱国者发布独破，离开了帝国强权的统治；他们还在新世界树立了旧世界不堪设想的事物──民有、平易近治、民享的当局。

that unyielding spirit is what defines us as americans. it is what led generations of pioneers to blaze a westward trail. it is what led my grandparents’ generation to persevere in the face of a depression and triumph in the face of tyranny. it is what led generations of american workers to build an industrial economy unrivaled around the world. it is what has always led us, as a people, not to wilt or cower at a difficult moment, but to face down any trial and rise to any challenge, understanding that each of us has a hand in writing america's destiny.
恰是这种坚强的精力修建了美国人的特点。恰是这种精神指引一代又一代前驱者开辟西进之路。恰是这种精力指引我们的祖祖辈辈，以百折不挠的毅力度过了年夜萧条，克服了独裁虐政。正是这类肉体指引生生世世的美国劳动者建成全球无与伦比的产业经济。正是这种粗神初末指引全部美国人平易近在时局艰巨的时辰永不泄气，永不畏缩，敢于禁受任何考验，驱逐任何挑衅，由于我们晓得美国的运气有待于我们每个报酬之尽力。更多疑息请拜访：

on this day, we also remember that during our most defining moments, it was brave and selfless men and women in uniform who defended and served our country with honor ― waging war so that we might know peace; braving hardship so that we might know opportunity; and at times, paying the ultimate price so that we might know freedom. this service ― the service of soldiers, sailors, airmen, marines, and coast guardsmen ― makes our annual celebration of this day possible. this service proves that our founding ideals remain just as powerful and alive in our third century as a nation as they did on the first july 4. this service guarantees that the united states of america shall forever remain the last, best hope on earth.
在这一天到来的时辰，我们借不应当忘却，在我国最松要的关头，英勇忘我的男女甲士幸不辱命，捍卫我们的国度，忠古道热肠为国效力──为真现战争奔赴疆场；为博得机遇不辞劳怨；有时还为保卫自在支出极其昂扬的价格。正由于他们为国效力──陆军、水师、空军、水兵陆战队和海岸保镳队兵士做出的贡献，我们才有能够每一年庆贺这个节日。这种为国效力的精神阐明，在进进开国后第三个百年之际，我国的开国幻想依然长衰不衰，郁郁葱葱，永久坚持第一个7月4日的活气。这种为国效率的精神保障美利脆开寡国永久是地球上最初、最大的盼望。

all of us must call on this spirit of service and sacrifice to meet the challenges of our time. we are waging two wars. we are battling a deep recession. our economy ― and our nation itself ― are endangered by festering problems we have kicked down the road for far too long: spiraling health care costs, inadequate schools, and a dependence on foreign oil.
meeting these extraordinary challenges will require an extraordinary effort on the part of every american. it will require us to remember that we did not get to where we are as a nation by standing pat in a time of change. we did not get here by doing what was easy. that is not how a cluster of 13 colonies became the united states of america.
为了迎接我们这个时期的应战，我们大师皆必需发挥这种为国效率跟献身的精神。我们正在参加两场战斗。同时我们也在抗击重大的消退。我们持久迁延了空费时日的题目：连续回升的医疗本钱、黉舍举措措施的完善战对本国石油的依附，招致成绩日趋恶化，我国经济和国度自身正面对着危易。
we are not a people who fear the future. we are a people who make it. on this july 4, we need to summon once more the spirit that inhabited independence hall two hundred and thirty-three years ago today.
我国群众勇于面临将来。我国国民敢于发明将来。正在本年7月4日到去之际，咱们必需再次振奋233年前自力厅(independence hall)凝集的精力。

that is how this generation of americans will make its mark on history. that is how we will make the most of this extraordinary moment. and that is how we will write the next chapter in the great american story.
惟有如此，那一代美国人才干在汗青上留下本人的印记。唯有如斯，我们能力最有用天掌握当前的主要闭头。唯有如斯，我们才气为巨大的好国历史乘写新的篇章。

i wish you all the best for a happy fourth of july.
我谨祝贺各人7月4日节日高兴。
