Hope (Original Mix)

I've never been more hopeful about our future.
我对未来翘首以盼
I have never been more hopeful about America.
对美国心怀期许
And I ask you to sustain that hope.
我们势必将希望的火种传递下去
I'm not talking about blind optimism,
我并非在谈论盲目的乐观
the kind of hope that just ignores the enormity of the tasks ahead
毕竟任重道远不可小视
or the roadblocks that stand in our path.
前路崎岖不容小觑
I'm not talking about the wishful idealism that allows us
我并非持有主观的理想主义
to just sit on the sidelines or shirk from a fight.
那会让我们作壁上观或是临战逃脱

我一生坚信
I have always believed
希望就是我们内心执着的信念
that hope is that stubborn thing inside us that insists,
是不论曾经有多少背道而驰
despite all the evidence to the contrary,
最终总会柳暗花明
that something better awaits us
只要我们有勇气不断前进
so long as we have the courage to keep reaching,
不断努力 不断奋斗
to keep working, to keep fighting.
相信我们能信守建国者们的诺言

守住这样一种信念 ：如果你愿意努力奋斗
I believe we can keep the promise of our founders,
那么无论你是谁 你来自何方
the idea that if you're willing to work hard,
无论你外表如何 爱着哪片故土
it doesn't matter who you are or where you come from
无论你的肤色如何
or what you look like or where you love.
无论你是拉美裔、亚裔还是美国原住民 年轻抑或年老
It doesn't matter whether you're black or white
富有还是贫穷 健全还是残缺 同性恋还是异性恋
or Hispanic or Asian or Native American or young or old
你都可以在美国有所作为 除非你不奋斗
or rich or poor, able, disabled, gay or straight,
我相信未来就在我们掌中
you can make it here in America.
因为我们团结一致 并未被政见所分离

并未像所谓的有识之士评价的那样愤世嫉俗
I believe we can seize this future together
我们的抱负之远大超乎代数总和
because we are not as divided as our politics suggests.
团结的力量超越了红州和蓝州的简单联合
We're not as cynical as the pundits believe.
我们是永远的美利坚合众国
We are greater than the sum of our individual ambitions,
大家齐心协力 上帝仁慈相待
and we remain more than a collection of red states and blue states.
我们将砥砺前行
We are and forever will be the United States of America.
让世界好奇

我们为何生活在最伟大的国度
And together with your help and God's grace
感谢你们 伟大的国民
we will continue our journey forward
and remind the world just why it is
that we live in the greatest nation on Earth.

Thank you, America.
