奧巴馬勝選演講稿文言文版
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 the train home to Delaware, the vice president-elect of the United States, Joe Biden.
喬君拜登,亦吾所感銘至深者也。競(jìng)選之業(yè),艱險(xiǎn)不足與外人道,幸有喬君之輔佐,其誠(chéng)天可鑒之。喬君其人,素言懇辭切,意篤情真,蓋嘗經(jīng)斯蘭克頓街鄉(xiāng)鄰之提命,飽聆特拉華州父老之晤教也。他日余既登總統(tǒng)之位,喬君必當(dāng)副之。
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.
拙荊米氏,追隨鄙人凡一十六年,既為愛侶,更為摯友,既為吾闔家之基石,又乃余終生之至愛。鄙人嘗自忖度,倘無賢妻若此,今朝闊論高談?dòng)诖颂幷,不知何人矣?
Sasha and Malia I love you both more than you can imagine. And you have earned the new puppy that’s coming with us to the new White House.
小女薩沙、瑪麗,余素深喜之。昔日為父嘗與汝等言,此番選戰(zhàn)若得一勝,愿購(gòu)小犬一頭相贈(zèng),待闔家喬遷總統(tǒng)府邸之日,偕汝等同進(jìn)吾宅。今當(dāng)勝負(fù)已出,既有一諾在前,必自踐行不欺也。
And while she’s no longer with us, I know my grandmother’s watching, along with the family that made me who I am. I miss them tonight. I know that my debt to them is beyond measure.
祖母大人雖已仙逝,料必有靈在天,俯察人寰,想應(yīng)頷首開顏矣。吾奧巴馬氏列祖列宗,亦當(dāng)如是。今日今時(shí),此情此景,鄙人追思之心,烏鳥之情,曷其有極!唯生死陌路,仙凡有別,雖懷反哺之心,而無答報(bào)之門也!
To my sister Maya, my sister Alma, all my other brothers and sisters, thank you so much for all the support that you’ve given me. I am grateful to them.
至若瑪雅、艾瑪二姐妹,以及吾家諸同胞,所惠我者,亦屬良多,久沐恩德,此當(dāng)拜謝。
