我们一定行! Yes, We can.

秉承着Yes, We can.的信念,曾经的吸毒者,同性恋,黑人男孩奥巴马(Obama),正在一步一步地接近美国总统的宝座。这是他的的助选视频。Obama的竞选演说稿真是漂亮!有马丁路德金《我有一个梦 I have a dream》的气势和神韵。英语就是好听!不服不行。

我们一定行!  Yes, We can.

It was a creed written into the founding documents that declared the destiny of a nation.
这是写进了建国文件、宣告一个国家命运的信条。

Yes we can.
我们一定行!

It was whispered by slaves and abolitionists as they blazed a trail toward freedom through the darkest of nights.
当奴隶和废奴者穿过暗夜走向自由,这是他们的口耳相传。

Yes we can.
我们一定行!

It was sung by immigrants as they struck out from distant shores and pioneers who pushed westward against an unforgiving wilderness.
当移民们从遥远的海岸向西部无情的荒野推进,这是他们所唱的歌。

Yes we can.
我们一定行!

It was the call  of workers who organized; women who reached for the ballot; a President who chose the moon as our new frontier; and a King who took us to the mountaintop and pointed the way to the Promised Land.
这是有组织的工人的呐喊;这是有投票权的妇女的呼唤;这是选择月球作为我们新边疆的总统的号召;这是带我们登上山顶、指引福地的国王的命令。

Yes we can to justice and equality.
是的,我们可以做到正义和平等!

Yes we can to opportunity and prosperity.
我们可以获得机会和繁荣!

Yes we can heal this nation.
我们可以治愈这个国家的痼疾!

Yes we can repair this world.
我们可以纠正这个世界的偏差!

Yes we can.......
我们一定行!……

(老三岁 译)

全文:

It was a creed written into the founding documents that declared the destiny of a nation.
Yes we can.

It was whispered by slaves and abolitionists as they blazed a trail toward freedom.
Yes we can.

It was sung by immigrants as they struck out from distant shores and pioneers who pushed westward against an unforgiving wilderness.
Yes we can.

It was the call of workers who organized; women who reached for the ballots; a President who chose the moon as our new frontier; and a King who took us to the mountaintop and pointed the way to the Promised Land.

Yes we can to justice and equality.

Yes we can to opportunity and prosperity.

Yes we can heal this nation.

Yes we can repair this world.

Yes we can.

We know the battle ahead will be long, but always remember that no matter what obstacles stand in our way, nothing can stand in the way of the power of millions of voices calling for change. (We want change.)

We have been told we cannot do this by a chorus of cynics…they will only grow louder and more dissonant ……….. We’ve been asked to pause for a reality check. We’ve been warned against offering the people of this nation false hope.

But in the unlikely story that is America, there has never been anything false about hope.

Now the hopes of the little girl who goes to a crumbling school in Dillon are the same as the dreams of the boy who learns on the streets of LA; we will remember that there is something happening in America; that we are not as divided as our politics suggests; that we are one people; we are one nation; and together, we will begin the next great chapter in the American story with three words that will ring from coast to coast; from sea to shining sea: Yes We Can.
