尼克松访华周总理致欢迎词辞中英文对照
总理先生,我要感谢你非常客气和雄辩的讲话。就在这个时刻,通过奇妙的通信,看到和听到我们对他们说的话的人比整个世界历史上任何其他这样的场合都多。然而,我们在这里所说的话不会被长久记住。我们在这里做什么可以改变世界。
正如你在祝酒词中所说,中国人民是伟大的人民,美国人民是伟大的人民。如果我们的敌人是敌人,那么我们共同分享的这个世界的未来确实是黑暗的。但是,如果我们能够到共同点,共同努力,世界和平的机会将大大增加。
我们应该给我们的孩子留下什么遗产?他们注定要面对困扰旧世界的仇恨,还是因为我们有建立新世界的愿景而注定要活着?
我们没有理由成为敌人。我们都不寻求对方的领土,也不寻求对对方的统治,也不寻求伸出双手统治世界。
曾写道:“太多的事情需要去做,而且总是急迫的;世界在前进,时间紧迫。”一万年太长了,只争朝夕!
现在是时候了。今天是我们两国人民攀登伟大高峰的日子,我们可以建设一个新的、更美好的世界。
本着这种精神,我请在座的各位和我一起举杯,为、周总理和中美两国人民的友谊干杯,这将为全世界人民带来友谊与和平。
Mr.Premier,I want to thank you for your very kind and eloquent speech.At this moment,through wonderful communication,more people see and hear what we say to them than on any other such occasion in the whole history of the world.However,what we said here will not be remembered for a long time. What we do here can change the world.As you said in your toast,the Chinese people are a great people,and the American people are a great people.If our tow peoples enemies,the future of this world we share together is dark indeed.But if we can find common ground to work together,the chance for world peace is immeasurably increased.
What legacy shall we leave our children?Are they destined to die for the hatreds which have plagued the old world,or are they destined to live because we had the vision to build a
new world?There is no reason for us to be enemies.Neither of us seeks the territory of the other,neither of us seeks domination over the other,and neither of us seeks to stretch out our hands and rule the world.Chairman Mao has written,“So many deeds cry out to be done,and always urgently;the world rolls on, time presses.”Ten thousand years are too long,seize the day,and seize the hour!This is the hour.This is the day for our two peoples to rise to the heights of greatness which can build a new and a better world.
