Even the horses and the dogs have no better fate.
就是馬和狗的命運也好不了多少。
You, Boxer, the very day that those great muscles of yours lose their power, Jones will sell you to the knacker, who will cut your throat and boil you down for the foxhounds.
你，鮑克瑟，有朝一日你那強健的肌肉失去了力氣，瓊斯就會把你賣給屠馬商，屠馬商會割斷你的喉嚨，把你煮了給獵狗吃。
As for the dogs, when they grow old and toothless, Jones ties a brick round their necks and drowns them in the nearest pond.
而狗呢，等他們老了，牙也掉光了，瓊斯就會就近找個池塘，弄塊磚頭拴再他們的脖子上，把他們沉到水底。
"Is it not crystal clear, then, comrades, that all the evils of this life of ours spring from the tyranny of human beings?
“那么，同志們，我們這種生活的禍根來自暴虐的人類，這一點難道不是一清二楚的嗎？
Only get rid of Man, and the produce of our labour would be our own.
只要驅除了人，我們的勞動所得就會全歸我們自己。
Almost overnight we could become rich and free.
而且幾乎在一夜之間，我們就會變得富裕而自由。
What then must we do?
那么我們應該為此做些什么呢？
Why, work night and day, body and soul, for the overthrow of the human race!
為什么我們要全力以赴，不分晝夜地奮斗，就是為了消除人類！
That is my message to you, comrades: Rebellion!
同志們，我要告訴你們的就是這個：造反！
I do not know when that Rebellion will come, it might be in a week or in a hundred years,
我也不知道造反會在何時發生，或許近在一周之內，或許遠在百年之后。
but I know, as surely as I see this straw beneath my feet, that sooner or later justice will be done.
但我確信，就象看到我蹄子底下的稻草一樣確鑿無疑，總有一天，正義要申張。
Fix your eyes on that, comrades, throughout the short remainder of your lives!
同志們，在你們整個短暫的余生中，不要偏離這個目標！
And above all, pass on this message of mine to those who come after you, so that future generations shall carry on the struggle until it is victorious.
尤其是，把我說的福音傳給你們的后代，這樣，未來的一代一代動物就會繼續這一斗爭，直到取得最后勝利。
"And remember, comrades, your resolution must never falter. No argument must lead you astray.
“記住，同志們，你們的誓愿決不可動搖，你們決不要讓任何甜言蜜語把你們引入歧途。
Never listen when they tell you that Man and the animals have a common interest, that the prosperity of the one is the prosperity of the others. It is all lies.
當他們告訴你們什么人與動物有著共同利益，什么一方的興衰就是另一方的興衰，千萬不要聽信那種話，那全是徹頭徹尾的謊言。
