We cannot let this moment slip away. We have come too far and accomplished too much.
我們不能夠讓機會錯失,我們期待得太久,奮斗得太長。
24)Now, the journey ahead will not be easy. Some will say we can't do it. That it's too hard. That we're just not up to the task. But for as long as America has existed, it has been the American way to reject "can't-do" claims, and to choose instead to stretch the boundaries of the possible through hard work, determination and a pioneering spirit.
而今,前路并不平坦。有人說,那太難了,不是我們力所能及的,我們不可能夢想成真。但自從美國誕生以來,我們就有一個美國式的對“不可能”說不的方式----通過努力的奮斗,堅定的信念和積極的心態盡全力觸摸那叫做可能的界限。
It is this belief, this optimism, that Senator Obama and I share, and that has inspired so many millions of our supporters to make their voices heard.
這種信念,這份樂觀,激勵了我和Obama;這種信念,這份樂觀,激勵了百萬的你們,讓支持的聲音響徹太空。
So today, I am standing with Senator Obama to say: Yes we can.
因此今天,我選擇和Obama參議員站在一起說:沒錯,我們能。
Together, we will work. We'll have to work hard to get universal health care. But on the day we live in an America where no child, no man and no woman is without health insurance, we will live in a stronger America. That's why we need to help elect Barack Obama our president.
我們將一道奮斗,我們將全力以赴,以實現各人都可享有的醫療保健。一旦到了美國出現一個沒有孩童,沒有男人,沒有婦女得不到醫療保健的美國的那天,我們就是生活在一個更加強大的美國里。那就是為何,我們必須幫助奧巴馬去成為總統。
We'll have to work hard to get back to fiscal responsibility and a strong middle class. But on the day we live in an America whose middle class is thriving and growing again, where all Americans, no matter where they live or where their ancestors came from, can earn a decent living, we will live in a stronger America, and that is why we must elect Barack Obama our president.
我們將全力以赴,重掌財政責任和一個強勢的中產階級。一旦到了美國出現中產階級再次繁榮成長,不管他們或者他們的祖先來自何方,能得到一個體面收入的那天,我們就是生活在一個更加強大的美國里。那就是為何,我們必須幫助奧巴馬去成為總統。
We'll have to work hard to foster the innovation that makes us energy-independent and lift the threat of global warming from our children's future. But on the day we live in an America fueled by renewable energy, we will live in a stronger America. That's why we have to help elect Barack Obama our president.
我們將全力以赴,鼓勵創新,以使能源需求獨立,并讓我們的孩子遠離全球變曖的威脅。一旦到了美國使用了可再生能源的那天,我們就是生活在一個更加強大的美國里。那就是為何,我們必須幫助奧巴馬去成為總統。
