這段的原聲錄音真好聽！
原文及自譯
I'm sorry, but I don't want to be an emperor. That's not my business. I don't want to rule or conquer anyone.
對不起，我不想做一個(gè)獨(dú)裁者，那不是我的工作，我不想控制或打敗任何人。
I should like to help everyone, if possible, Jew, gentile, black man, white. We all want to help one another. Human beings are like that.
如果可能，我希望幫助每個(gè)人：猶太人、非猶太人、黑人、白人。我們都想幫助其他的人種，人類應(yīng)該這樣。
We want to live by each other's happiness — not by each other's misery. We don't want to hate and despise one another.
我們要依靠其他人的幸福生活，而不是依靠別人痛苦，我們不想憎恨和鄙視他人。
In this world there is room for everyone. And the good earth is rich and can provide for everyone. The way of life can be free and beautiful, but we have lost the way.
在這個(gè)世界上，有每個(gè)人的空間，好的地球有足夠的資源提供給每一個(gè)人，生活的方式是自由而美麗的，但是我們正在失去這種生活。
Greed has poisoned men's souls, has barricaded the world with hate, has goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed.
貪婪毒害了人類的靈魂，用憎恨阻隔了世界，讓我們步入痛苦和屠殺。
We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in.
我們發(fā)展加速了，但我們關(guān)閉了自己。
Machinery that gives abundance has left us in want. Our knowledge has made us cynical. Our cleverness, hard and unkind.
工業(yè)化提供了超出我們所需要的資源，知識讓我們憤世嫉俗，聰明讓我們冷酷無情
We think too much and feel too little. More than machinery we need humanity. More than cleverness we need kindness and gentleness.
我們思考太多而感受太少。我們需要更多的是人性而不是機(jī)械化，我們需要更多的是仁慈和溫柔而不是聰明。
Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost.
沒有了這些品格，生命將充滿暴力，一切將失去。
The aeroplane and the radio have brought us closer together.
The very nature of these inventions cries out for the goodness in men, cries out for universal brotherhood, for the unity of us all.
Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the world — millions of despairing men, women and children — victims of a system that makes men torture and imprison innocent people.
To those who can hear me, I say — do not despair.
The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed — the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress.
The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people and so long as men die, liberty will never perish.
Soldiers! Don't give yourselves to brutes — men who despise you — enslave you — who regiment your lives — tell you what to do — what to think or what to feel!
Who drill you, diet you, treat you like cattle, use you as cannon fodder.
Don't give yourselves to these unnatural men — machine men with machine minds and machine hearts! You are not machines! You are not cattle! You are men! You have the love of humanity in your hearts. You don't hate! Only the unloved hate — the unloved and the unnatural!
Soldiers! Don't fight for slavery! Fight for liberty!
In the 17th Chapter of St. Luke it is written: "the Kingdom of God is within man" — not one man nor a group of men, but in all men! In you! You, the people have the power — the power to create machines. The power to create happiness! You, the people, have the power to make this life free and beautiful, to make this life a wonderful adventure.
Then, in the name of democracy, let us use that power! Let us all unite!
Let us fight for a new world, a decent world that will give men a chance to work, that will give youth a future and old age a security.
By the promise of these things, brutes have risen to power, but they lie!
They do not fulfill their promise; they never will.
Dictators free themselves, but they enslave the people! Now, let us fight to fulfill that promise!
Let us fight to free the world, to do away with national barriers, to do away with greed, with hate and intolerance.
Let us fight for a world of reason, a world where science and progress will lead to all men's happiness.
Soldiers! In the name of democracy, let us? all unite!
