To everyone in Britain and around the world celebrating Diwali, I send my very best wishes.

我要向在英國及全世界每一個慶祝排燈節的人，送上最良好的祝愿！

It’s an enormously special time of the year for Hindus, and across the world temples will be lit up for this wonderful festival.

對于信奉印度教的人來說，這是一年中最盛大特別的時刻，全世界的寺廟將會在這一節日里點亮燈火。

Diwali’s universal message of hope over despair, light over darkness, good over evil, that’s something that we should all celebrate.

排燈節所傳遞的普世信息：希望代替絕望，光明照亮黑暗，美好戰勝邪惡，正是我們所有人都應該為之慶祝的理念。

And to all the Hindus here in Britain I say this: you make a huge contribution to our country and I am enormously grateful for everything you put into it. You are a shining example of how communities can integrate, while at the same time retaining a strong and proud identity.

我要對在英國的印度人說：你們為我們的國家做出了巨大的貢獻，感謝你們付出的全部。你們完美的詮釋了在取得族裔融合的同時保持自身的鮮明特征。

It is that special identity, that faith, which is right at the heart of Diwali, and it’s that faith which is being celebrated around the globe today. So wherever you are in the world, enjoy the celebrations.

這一特征、信仰，正是排燈節的核心所在，今天為全世界所慶祝。不管你在世界的哪個角落，好好享受這一節日吧！
