篇1：奥巴马演讲全集(中英对照)

Hello，Chicago!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.芝城父老，别来无恙，余尝闻世人有疑，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 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.今夕之释然，皆蒙美利坚民众之协力——学塾祠庙之外，市井乡野之间，万千父老心焦似焚，苦待竟日，愿献一票之力。其中，平生未尝涉国事者，数亦不少，而今有此义举，皆因一念不衰——今夫天下，非同既往，愿发吁天之声，必成动地之势。

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，红蓝二党幷肩而立，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！

It’s been a long time coming, but tonight, because of what we did on this date in this election at this defining moment change has come to America.俟之诚久，其志弥坚。幸天地明察，乃有今日，乃有此刻，乃有此一选举，乃有我亿万美利坚大好国民——吾邦之大变革，方得自兹而始也！

A little bit earlier this evening, I received an extraordinarily gracious call from Sen.McCain.Sen.McCain fought long and hard in this campaign.And he’s fought even longer and harder for the country that he loves.He has endured sacrifices for America that most of us cannot begin to imagine.We are better off for the service rendered by this brave and selfless leader.I congratulate him;I congratulate Gov.Palin for all that they’ve achieved.And I look forward to working with them to renew this nation’s promise in the months ahead.顷接参议员麦君凯恩电，虽未得晤，幸有一谈，其言谆谆，其意诚诚，鄙人感佩之至。选战期内，麦君劳碌几重，奔波几许，皆为国家计。诸般求索，时日良多，皆非余所能及。于国于民之惊人牺牲，亦非庸庸如吾辈者所可想见。以麦君之胆魄襟怀，能为吾邦所用，实国家之幸，万民之幸也。前途漫漫，其事未竟，余所盼瞩由衷者，唯共麦凯恩君、佩林君，及诸贤士比肩，会吾等之绵力，成吾邦之大业。

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.乔君拜登，亦吾所感铭至深者也。竞选之业，艰险不足与外人道，幸有乔君之辅佐，其诚天可鉴之。乔君其人，素言恳辞切，意笃情真，盖尝经斯兰克顿街乡邻之提命，饱聆特拉华州父老之晤教也。他日余既登总统之位，乔君必当副之。

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！

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.小女萨沙、玛丽，余素深喜之。昔日为父尝与汝等言，此番选战若得一胜，愿购小犬一头相赠，待阖家乔迁总统府邸之日，偕汝等同进吾宅。今当胜负已出，既有一诺在前，必自践行不欺也。

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.祖母大人虽已仙逝，料必有灵在天，俯察人寰，想应颔首开颜矣。吾奥巴马氏列祖列宗，亦当如是。今日今时，此情此景，鄙人追思之心，乌鸟之情，曷其有极！唯生死陌路，仙凡有别，虽怀反哺之心，而无答报之门也！

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.至若玛雅、艾玛二姐妹，以及吾家诸同胞，所惠我者，亦属良多，久沐恩德，此当拜谢。

And to my campaign manager, David Plouffe, the unsung hero of this campaign, who built the best — the best political campaign, I think, in the history of the United States of America.To my chief strategist David Axelrod who’s been a partner with me every step of the way.To 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.大卫•普劳夫君，大卫•阿克塞罗德君，一为鄙人竞选事务之经理，一为鄙人国事韬略之智囊。余尝自喟叹，左右谋士，余所仰赖者，皆亘古未见之贤才。普阿二君，则更此中之翘楚。区区不才，有何德能，可得膀臂若此？当此功成之际，感荷之心，亦自拳拳。

But above all, I will 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！

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 $5 and $10 and $20 to the cause.余素朴陋，虽有参选之心，幷无必胜之志。谋事之初，银资乏匮，从者寥寥；起事之地，皆蔽寓荒斋，不在高阁；成事之基，无非寻常百姓，涓滴之献。

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.It drew strength from the not-so-young people who braved the bitter cold and scorching heat to knock on doors of perfect strangers, and 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 the Earth.今日之胜，有赖一众热血青年，抛其家，别其室，不辞其苦，不计其酬，矻矻于此——“国中青年爱国之心已泯”之谬论，今可休矣！今日之胜，有赖壮志未已之诸前辈，无惧寒暑，行走奔波，劝说民众。今日之胜，乃数百万美利坚民众之胜，察其意，皆属踊跃为国，观其行，处处谨严有序，足堪告慰二百年前开国之先贤 ——民有、民治、民享之政体，未尝动摇也！

This is your victory.嗟夫！此实诸位之功也！

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.余知诸君之意非在此一选举，亦非在鄙人一身。盖瞻前路之艰辛，益知此任非同小可也。虽今夕欢贺于此，而明朝酒醒，大患仍自当前，不容有怠——两地烽烟熊熊而起，四海之内纷纷而乱，金融业界惶惶而不得宁。

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 the children fall asleep and wonder how they’ll make the mortgage or pay their doctors’ bills or save enough for their child’s college education.There’s new energy to harness, new jobs to be created, new schools to build, and threats to meet, alliances to repair.是夜，饮宴笙歌之声不绝于耳，而异邦大漠群山中，吾国大好青年，兀自苦戍边塞，惝恍竟夜，性命尚未得安。吾国千万庶民，为人父母者，兀自惴惴难眠，所忧者，乃房宅所贷、病患之费、抚育之资也。至若吾国能源之耗，百业之兴，庠序之教，攻伐之术，怀远之道，亦皆吾等忡忡挂怀者也。

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！

There will be setbacks and false starts.There are many who won’t agree with every decision or policy I make as president.And we know the government can’t solve every problem.But I will always be honest with you about the challenges we face.I will listen to you, especially when we disagree.And, above all, I will ask you to join in the work of remaking this nation, the only way it’s been done in America for 221 years — block by block, brick by brick, calloused hand by calloused hand.逶迤坎坷，份内之事。异见争端，料必有之。国中之政府，谅非无所不能者。余所秉承不移者，唯忠信矣。倘有危难于前，必无欺瞒于世。诸君言论臧否，纵悖逆相左之议，余必当洗耳以聆。于此之外，更当恳请诸君，不吝心血，致力报效，以振吾美利坚重兴之业。余亦别无他想，唯盼吾侪协力，延继吾国既肇二百二十一年之大统，汇涓滴之力，而成万世之业。

What began 21 months ago in the depths of winter cannot end on this autumn night.This victory alone is not the change we seek.It is only the chance for us to make that change.And that cannot 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。

So let us summon a new spirit of patriotism, of responsibility, where each of us resolves to pitch in and work harder and look after not only ourselves but each other.Let us remember that, if this financial crisis taught us anything, it’s that we cannot have a thriving Wall Street while Main Street suffers.In this country, we rise or fall as one nation, as one people.爱国之心，报国之念，吾人固有之，然逢今日之世，此心此念亦当一变——吾辈各执己业，益当各竭其力，各尽其命，非但为一己之利，而更期普世之荣。今岁，金融业界动荡多舛，细审观之，当可以之为鉴——实业之损，亦是金融之伤。可知，既在邦域之内，吾辈荣辱休戚，皆相与共矣！

篇2：奥巴马演讲全集(中英对照)

Each time we gather to inaugurate（开创;创始）a president, we bear witness to the enduring strength of our Constitution.We affirm（断言；肯定；证实）the promise of our democracy.We recall that what binds this nation together is not the colors of our skin or the tenets(信条；教义；教条)of our faith or the origins of our names.What makes us exceptional – what makes us American – is our allegiance（忠诚；拥护）to an idea, articulated（清晰阐述）in a declaration 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。让我们与众不同，让我们成为美国人的是我们对于一种理念的恪守。200多年前，这一理念在一篇宣言中被清晰阐述：

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed（捐赠；使天生具有）by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.”“我们认为下述真理是不言而喻的，人人生而平等。造物主赋予他们若干不可剥夺的权利，包括生存、自由和追求幸福的权利。”

Today we continue a never-ending journey, to bridge the meaning of those words with the realities of our time.For history tells us that while these truths may be self-evident, they have never been self-executing;that while freedom is a gift from God, it must be secured by His people here on Earth.The patriots(爱国者)of 1776 did not fight to replace the tyranny of a king with the privileges of a few or the rule of a mob.They gave to us a Republic, a government of, and by, and for the people, entrusting each generation to keep safe our founding creed.今天，我们继续着这一未竟的征程，架起这些理念与我们时代现实之间的桥梁。因为历史告诉我们，即便这些真理是不言而喻的，它们也从来不会自动生效。因为虽然自由是上帝赋予的礼物，但仍需要世间的子民去捍卫。1776年，美国的爱国先驱们不是只为了推翻国王的暴政而战，也不是为赢得少数人的特权，建立暴民的统治。先驱们留给我们一个共和国，一个民有、民治、民享的政府。他们委托每一代美国人捍卫我们的建国信条。

For more than two hundred years, we have.在过去的200多年里，我们做到了。Through blood drawn by lash and blood drawn by sword, we learned that no union founded on the principles of liberty and equality could survive half-slave and half-free.We made ourselves anew, and vowed to move forward together.从奴役的血腥枷锁和刀剑的血光厮杀中我们懂得了，建立在自由与平等原则之上的联邦不能永远维持半奴隶和半自由的状态。我们赢得了新生，誓言共同前进。Together, we determined that a modern economy requires railroads and highways to speed travel and commerce;schools and colleges to train our workers。我们共同努力，建立起现代的经济体系。架设铁路与高速公路，加速了旅行和商业交流。建立学校与大学，培训我们的工人。

Together, we discovered that a free market only thrives when there are rules to ensure competition and fair play.我们一起发现，自由市场的繁荣只能建立在保障竞争与公平竞争的原则之上。

Together, we resolved that a great nation must care for the vulnerable(易受攻击的), and protect its people from life’s worst hazards and misfortune.我们共同决定让这个伟大的国家远离危险，保护她的人民不受生命威胁和不幸的侵扰。Through it all, we have never relinquished（放弃；交出）our skepticism of central authority, nor have we succumbed（屈服；不抵抗）to the fiction that all society’s ills can be cured through government alone.Our celebration of initiative（主动权）and enterprise;our insistence on hard work and personal responsibility, these are constants in our character.一路走来，我们从未放弃对集权的质疑。我们同样不屈服于这一谎言：一切的社会弊端都能够只靠政府来解决。我们对积极向上与奋发进取的赞扬，我们对努力工作与个人责任的坚持，这些都是美国精神的基本要义。But we have always understood that when times change, so must we;that fidelity（逼真）to our founding principles requires new responses to new challenges;that preserving our individual freedoms ultimately requires collective action.For the American people can no more meet the demands of today’s world by acting alone than American soldiers could have met the forces of fascism（法西斯）or communism with muskets and militias.No single person can train all the math and science teachers we’ll need to equip our children for the future, or build the roads and networks and research labs that will bring new jobs and businesses to our shores.Now, more than ever, we must do these things together, as one nation, and one people.我们也理解，时代在变化，我们同样需要变革。对建国精神的忠诚，需要我们肩负起新的责任，迎接新的挑战。保护我们的个人自由，最终需要所有人的共同努力。因为美国人不能再独力迎接当今世界的挑战，正如美国士兵们不能再像先辈一样，用步枪和民兵同敌人(法西斯主义与共产主义)作战。一个人无法培训所有的数学 与科学老师，我们需要他们为了未来去教育孩子们。一个人无法建设道路、铺设网络、建立实验室来为国内带来新的工作岗位和商业机会。现在，与以往任何时候相比，我们都更需要团结合作。作为一个国家，一个民族团结起来。

This generation of Americans has been tested by crisis that steeled our resolve and proved our resilience（弹性；回弹；恢复力）.A decade of war is now ending.An economic recovery has begun.America’s possibilities are limitless, for we possess all the qualities that this world without boundaries demands: youth and drive;diversity and openness;an endless capacity for risk and a gift for reinvention(重塑).My fellow Americans, we are made for this moment, and we will seize it – so long as we seize it together.这一代美国人经历了危机的考验，经济危机坚定了我们的决心，证明了我们的恢复力。长达十年的战争正在结束，经济的复苏已经开始。美国的可能性是无限的，因为我们拥有当今没有边界的世界所需要的所有品质：年轻与活力、多样性与开放、无穷的冒险精神以及创造的天赋才能。我亲爱的同胞们，我们正是为此刻而生，我们更要在此刻团结一致，抓住当下的机会。

For we, the people, understand that our country cannot succeed when a shrinking few do very well and a growing many barely make it.We believe that America’s prosperity must rest upon the broad shoulders of a rising middle class.We know that America thrives when every person can find independence and pride in their work;when the wages of honest labor liberate families from the brink（边缘）of hardship.We are true to our creed when a little girl born into the bleakest poverty knows that she has the same chance to succeed as anybody else, because she is an American, she is free, and she is equal, not just in the eyes of God but also in our own.因为我们，美国人民，清楚如果只有不断萎缩的少数人群体获得成功，而大多数人不能成功，我们的国家就无法成功。我们相信，美国的繁荣必须建立在不断上升的中产阶级的宽阔臂膀之上，我们知道美国的繁荣只有这样才能实现。只有当每个人都能找到工作中的自立与自豪时才能实现。只有当诚实劳动获得的薪水足够让家庭 摆脱困苦的悬崖时才能实现。我们忠诚于我们的事业，保证让一个出生于最贫穷环境中的小女孩都能知道，她有同其他所有人一样的成功机会。因为她是一个美国人，她是自由的、平等的。她的自由平等不仅由上帝来见证，更由我们亲手保护。

篇3：奥巴马演讲全集(中英对照)

大选年，奥巴马为了博得选举天然不肯放过任何一个推销自己的机会。在此次的白宫记者协会接待晚宴的演说中，奥巴马锋利吐槽、大度自嘲，暗讽对手，用诙谐幽默给自己加分不少。

Host：Could someone back there please turnoff the Presidents mic? I think the Presidents mic is hot, please turn it off.Thank you.Thank you.后台哪位帮忙把总统的麦克风关一下？我感受总统的麦克风没有关，请帮忙关一下，谢谢，谢谢。

（首尔核峰会上奥巴马与梅德韦杰夫的私聊因为没关麦克风被暴光，之前的G20戛纳峰会中一样因为没关麦克风而暴光了他与萨科齐的私聊，两次事宜都在国内掀起轩然大波。）

Obama：Great.I gotta get warmed up.I...Imso in love...God!I totally had that.Seriously guys, what am Idoing here?

太棒了，我来个热身。我……我太爱你……（一月份演讲时他唱过Al Green这首歌）天哪！我真是擅长唱歌！说端庄的各位，我来这是干甚么的？

Im the President of the United States, and Im openning for Jimmy Kimmel? I have the nuclearcodes, why am I telling “knock knock” jokes to Kim Kardashian? Why is she famous anyway?

我可是美国总统啊，我竟然为吉米·凯莫（ABC电视台深夜脱口秀主持人）热场？我是手握核兵器的管辖（美国总统有一只广为撒布的“核按钮手提箱”，里面存放着启动美国核兵器的暗码），干吗要来这给卡戴珊讲“拍门”笑话？她到底为啥出名呢？

（卡戴珊最有名的标签是“帕丽斯·希尔顿的挚友”，她是罗伯特·卡戴珊的女儿，奥多姆的大姨子。卡戴珊因性爱视频而出名。）

Thats it.Next year we send Biden.Now youre right.Its way too risky.我受够了。明年让拜登替我来好了。你说得对，这么干太危险。（拜登可是口误帝）Wow, look at my hair.It really went gray.Do you think anybody would notice if I just went a little darker? Right now like a five on the “Just For Men” scale.I think I would go to 6 and nobody would notice.哇，看我的头发。一片灰白啊！你说我若是染黑一点会有人发现不？按照“Just For Men”（有名染发产品）的标准，我目前只剩5分黑了。我感受我若是染成6分黑也该当不会有人注意吧。

Is theworking? Are you kidding? What do you expect me to do out there? I literally have no idea what Im saying tonight.提词器准备好没？（自嘲演讲全靠提词器）开甚么玩笑？那我一会上场如何语言啊？我底子不知道今晚要说点甚么。

Man!I could really use a cigarette right now.唉，目前真想抽根烟！（自嘲之前是烟鬼）

Okay, okay, Im going.God forbid wekeep Chuck Todd and the cast of Glee waiting.好了好了，这就上场。谁敢让查克·陶德（美国国家播送公司政治中心主管）和Glee剧组久等啊！

Host：Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the President of the United States.女士们先生们，掌声有请美国总统！

Obama：Thank you!Good evening everybody.Good evening!I could not be more thrilled to be here tonight atthe White HouseDinner.That is great crowd.They are already laughing.Its terrific.谢谢！早晨好各位，早晨好！本日我怀着非常冲动的心情来列席白宫记者晚宴。这观众太好了，还没最早就笑成这样，太好了！

Chuck Todd--love you, brother.I’m delighted to see some of the cast members of Glee are here.And Jimmy Kimmel, it’s an honor, man.What’s so funny?

查克·陶德，哥们我爱你哦！我很兴奋见到Glee剧组也加入了。还有吉米·凯莫，真是荣幸啊!有啥好笑的？

My fellow Americans, we gather duringa historic.Last year atthis time--in fact, on this very weekend--we finally delivered justice to one of the world’s most individuals.亲爱的美国同胞们，我们欢聚在这具有历史意义的周年纪念日。去年的这个时间，现实上恰是在统一个周末，我们终于将世界上最臭名昭著的恶人处死。（“大恶人”Trump中枪，去年晚宴被凶猛吐槽）

Now, this year, we gather in the midst of a heated election season.And Axelrod tells me I should never miss a chance to re introduce myself to the American people.So tonight, this is how I’d like to begin: My name is Barack Obama.My mother was born in Kansas.My father was born in Kenya.And Iwas born, of course, in Hawaii.往年，在白热化的大选季我们再次聚会，Axelrod（奥巴马的照料）说我不该当错过任何从新向美国人平易近介绍自己的机会。所以今晚我打算就这样收场：我名叫贝拉克·奥巴马，我母亲出身在堪萨斯，我父亲出身在肯尼亚，而我出身在：当然是夏威夷。（用眨眼来自嘲对手质疑自己出生地证明事宜）

In 2009, I took office in the face of somechallenges.Now,some have said I blame too many problems on my predecessor, but let’s not forget that’s a practice that was initiated by George W.Bush.Since then, Congress and I have certainly had our differences;yet, I’ve tried to be civil, to not take any cheap shots.And that’s why I want to especially thank all the members who took a break from their exhausting schedule of not passing any laws to be here tonight.Let’s give them a big round of applause.2009年我就任总统时面对浩繁艰巨挑战。目前许多人说我把太多问题归咎于前任身上，但大家别忘了，这样的做法是小布什创始的。（这句自己就是推给前任）从那时起，国会跟我就矛盾不时，但我尽管连结风度，从不阴损吐槽。所以我本日要迥殊谢谢那些从无所事事的百忙傍边抽空加入的国会议员。（这就是cheap shot阴损吐槽啊）大家把热烈的掌声献给他们吧。

Despite many, much has changedduring my time in office.Four years ago, I was locked in a brutalprimary battle with Hillary Clinton.Four years later, she won’t stop drunk-texting me from Cartagena.尽管险阻重重，但自我上任以来，许多事都有所窜改，四年前，我跟希拉里在初选中斗

得你死我活；四年后，她一喝多就从Cartagena给我发短信（希拉里比来走红的短信照和喝酒照，Cartagena也是特工嫖妓门的发生地）。

Four years ago, I was a Washingtonoutsider.Four years later, I’m at this dinner.Four years ago, It looked like this.Today, I look like this.And four years from now,I will look like this.That’s not even funny.四年前，我是首都官场圈外人；四年后，我出目前白宫晚宴上。四年前，我长这样；四年后，我长这样；再过四年，我就会长成这样了（摩根·弗里曼）。一点也欠好笑。

Anyway, it’s great to be here this evening in the vast, magnificent Hilton ballroom--or what Mitt Romney would call a little fixer-upper.I mean, look at this party.We’ve got men in , women in gowns, fine wine, first-class entertainment.I was just relieved to learn this was not a GSA conference.Unbelievable.Not even the mind reader knew what they were thinking.总之，我很兴奋今晚来到这宏伟光辉的希尔顿舞厅，或者用罗姆尼的话来讲叫“日久失修的小破屋”（暗指罗姆尼是富二代）。我想说，瞧这派对，有衣着燕尾服的绅士，穿晚军服的淑女，醉人美酒和一流上演——据说这不是GSA大会我才宁神（联邦当局总务署公款吃喝事宜）。难以置信啊！连读心术都看不到他们脑子里的设法（指脑袋空空）。Of course, the White House Correspondents’ Dinner is known as theof Washington D.C.--aterm coined by political reporters who clearly never had the chance to go to an actual prom.当然了，白宫记者晚宴又被成为“首都卒业舞会”。发现这个词的记者显然从没真正参加过真正的卒业舞会。

Our chaperone for the evening is Jimmy Kimmel--who is perfect for the job since most of tonight’saudience is in his key--people who fall asleep during Night line.Jimmy got his start years ago on TheMan Show.In Washington, that’s what we call a congressional hearing on contraception.我们今晚的“监护人”是吉米·凯莫（指卒业舞会的成年监护人），他是这个职位的不二人选，因为今晚观众都是他的方针人群:那些看Nightline（凯莫节目之前播出的晚新闻）睡着没关电视的人。吉米多年前在“男子秀”出道。在华盛顿，“男子秀”是关于女性避孕药品的国会听证（暗讽关于女性话题的听证会全是男子列席）。

And plenty of journalists are here tonight.Id be remiss if I didn’t congratulate the Huffington Poston their Pulitzer Prize.You deserve it, Arianna.Theres no oneelse out there linking to the kinds of hard-hitting journalism that HuffPo is linking to every single day.Give them a round ofapplause.And you don’t pay them--its a great business model.今晚浩繁媒体人加入，我必必要恭喜“赫芬顿邮报”得到普利策奖。Arianna（该报女掌门），你们当之无愧！没人能像你们一样每天“链接”到这么多的锋利新闻（指赫芬顿邮报的新闻都是盗用别家链接）。请把掌声献给他们。你们还不付原作者钱，这是种伟大的经营模式啊！

Even Sarah Palin is getting back intothe game, guest hosting on The Today Show--which reminds me of an old saying: Whats the difference between a hockey mom and a pit bull? A pit bull is delicious.A little soy sauce.连佩林都重返舞台了，在“今日秀”做贵客主持。这使我想起一句老话：“冰球老妈和牛头犬有甚么不同”（这句的内在是说二者一样）。牛头犬的味道好极了。（自嘲6岁吃狗肉事宜）再加点酱油。

Now, I know at this point many of you are expecting me to go after my likely opponent, Newt Gingrich.Newt, theres still time, man.But Im not going to do that--Im not going to attack

any of the Republican candidates.Take MittRomney--he and I actually have a lot in common.We both think of our wives as our better halves, and polls show, to a alarminglyinsulting extent, the American people agree.We also both have degrees from Harvard;I have one, he has two.What as nob.目前，说道这里我知道很多人都在等候我出言攻击将来的敌手，金里奇。纽特你还来得及啊！但我不会那么做。我不会攻击任何共和党候选人。比如鲁姆你，我们两个其实有很多合营点，我们都认为自己的老婆比自己更优秀。并且平易近意调查显示，令人震惊而难堪的是，很大一部分美国人也这样认为（他俩都没老婆受欢迎）。我们都有哈佛的学位，我有一个，他有两个。真是势利小人。

Of course, weve also had our differences.Recently, his campaign criticized me for slow jamming the news with Jimmy Fallon.In fact, I understand Governor Romney was so incensed he asked his staff if he could get some equal time on The Merv Griffin Show.Still, I guess Governor Romney is feeling pretty good about things because he took a few hours off the other day to see The Hunger Games--some of you have seen it.Its amovie about people who court wealthy sponsors and then brutally savage each other until only one contestant is left standing.Im sure this was a really good change of pace for him.I have not seen The Hunger Games;not enough class warfare for me.当然我俩也有不同之处，近年来他的竞选团队品评我和吉米·法伦表演的“最慢新闻风”。现实上，我知道罗姆尼州长气疯了，一直问手下可否上“Merv Griffin秀”（1986年就停播的电视节目）也来这么一长段。并且我举得罗姆尼比来的心情还是不错的，因为前几天他抽工夫去看了“饥饿游戏”，有些人看过了，电影讲述的是一群人围了取悦援助人残忍搏杀，直到剩下末了一名幸存者的故事。他看了这电影绝对能够转换心情啊。我还没看过“饥饿游戏”，对我来讲片中的“阶层斗争”（共和党将税务问题称为“阶层斗争”）。

Of course, I know everybody is predicting aelection, an dthankfully, weve all agreed that families are off limits.Dogs,however, are apparently fair game.And while both campaigns have had some fun with this, the other day I saw a new ad from one of these outside groups that, frankly,I think crossed the line.I know Governor Romney says he has no control over what his super PACs do,but can we show the ad real quick?(Video is played.)当然我知道大家都认为本届选战将会不择手段，亏得，我们都赞成祸不殃及家人。然则对于狗，显然就是公平竞争了。两边阵营都拿这事玩得很高兴。某天我看到这段竞选团队制作的视频，说实话，我感受过分了。我知道罗姆尼自称跟他的“超级PAC”绝无通同，我们来看一下这段张扬告白吧。（播放视频竞争对手罗姆尼团队制作的攻击奥巴马视频，我靠敢这样公开抹黑现任总统）

That’s prettyrough，but I can take it,because my stepfather always told me, its a boy-eat-dog world out there.这一段太横暴了，但我还能忍耐得住。因为我的继父经常辅导我，这是个“童咬狗”的世界（自嘲被罗姆尼阵营暴光的6岁吃狗肉事宜，双关讽刺对手“咬狗”）。

Now, if I do win a second term as President, let me just say something to all the--let me just say something to all my-oriented friendson the right who think I am planning to unleash some secret agenda:You are absolutely right.So allow me to close with a quick preview of the secret agenda you can expect in a second Obamaadministration.目前，若是我真的博得蝉联，我想告诉所有深嗜诡计论的右派同伙，你们认为我企图进行某些隐秘计划，你们说得一点没错。所以结尾部分我要预报一下在我的第二任期内将

泛起的隐秘计划。

In my first term, I sang Al Green;inmy second term, Im going with Young Jeezy.Michelle said, yeah.Ising that to her sometimes.In my first term, we ended the war in Iraq;in my second term, I will win the war on Christmas.In my first term, we repealed the policy known as “dont ask, dont tell”--wait, though;in my second term, we will replace it with a policy known as, its raining men.In my first term, we passed health carereform;in my second term, I guess Ill pass it again.在我的第一任期我唱了Al Green的歌，在我的第二任期，我要唱Young Jeezy。米歇尔说：“好啊。”我有时间会给她唱。在我的第一任期我们竣事了伊拉克战争，在第二任期，我们会打赢“圣诞之战”（共和党上纲上线捏造的战争）。在我的第一任期，我们倾覆了“不问不说”政策（部队的鄙视同性恋政策），先别急，在我的第二任期，我们会将此政策更换成“漫天基情”（典型的男同性恋歌曲）。在我第一任期，我们通过了医保改革；在我的第二任期，我想我得再通过一次（共和党企图倾覆医保改革）。

I do want to end tonight on as lightly more serious note--whoever takes the oath of office next January will face some great challenges, but he will also in herittraditions that make us greater than the challenges we face.And one of those traditions is represented here tonight: a free press that is not afraid to ask questions, to examine and to criticize.And in service of that mission, all of you make sacrifices.其实我想用端庄点的内容做今晚的结语，不管明年一月谁宣誓就任都会面对严峻的磨练，但他也会继承使我们能克服磨练的传统精力。今晚各位所代表的就是这样的传统精力。媒体自由让我们不怕质疑，勇于调查，直言批判。而为了这样的方针，你们所有人都做出了牺牲。

Tonight, we remember journalists such as Anthony Shadid and Marie Colvin--who made thesacrifice as they sought to shine a light on some of the most important stories of our time.So whether you are a blogger or a broadcaster, whether you take on powerful interests here at home or put yourself in harms way overseas, I have the greatest respect and admiration for what you do.I know sometimes you like to give me a hard time--and I certainly like to return the favor--but I never forget that our country depends on you.You help protect our freedom, our democracy, and our way of life.今晚，让我们来纪念像Anthony Shadid和Marie Colvin这样的大胆记者（都是在国外报导时殉职），他们为了将当代最重大的新闻公诸于世付出了崇高的牺牲。所以不管你是博客作者还是媒体主播，不管你是在国内尽力报导还是在海外身处险境，我都对你们的事业表示最高的尊重和敬意。我知道有时间你们喜欢让我难堪，我也非常想以牙还牙。但我从未忘掉我们的国家需要你们。你们帮我们捍卫自由、民主和我们的生活方式。（本次演讲的精髓正题，标榜美国的民主媒体言论自由）

And just to set the record straight,I really do enjoy attending these dinners.In fact, I had a lot more material prepared, but I have to get the Secret Service home in time for their new.最后说点直接的，我非常喜欢参加这样的晚宴。我本来准备了很多段子，但我得让特勤局特工们早点回家向老婆报到（自嘲特勤局特工集体招妓事件，此时镜头切换给毫无表情的总统保镖们）。

Good evening.Tonight, I can report to the American people and to the world that the United States has conducted an operation that killed Osama bin Laden, the leader of al Qaeda, and a terrorist who’s responsible for the murder of thousands of innocent men, women, and children.晚上好。今天晚上，我终于能向美国人民和全世界宣布，美国指挥的一项行动已经将基地组织的头目奥萨马·本·拉登击毙，他要为成千上万美国无辜的男人女人和儿童的死亡负责。

It was nearly 10 years ago that a bright September day was darkened by the worst attack on the American people in our history.The images of 9/11 are seared into our national memory--hijacked planes cutting through a cloudless

September sky;the Twin Towers collapsing to the ground;black smoke billowing up from the Pentagon;the wreckage of Flight 93 in Shanksville, Pennsylvania, where the actions of heroic citizens saved even more heartbreak and destruction.那个阳光明媚的九月被美国有史以来遭受的最惨重的恐怖袭击遮蔽，距今就要十年了。911事件的情景一直留在全国人民的记忆中——被劫持的飞机划过万里无云的九月晴空；
