Thank you to the citizens of Berlin and -- and thank you to the people of Germany. Let me thank Chancellor Merkel and Foreign Minister Steinmeier for welcoming me earlier today. Thank you Mayor Wowereit, the Berlin Senate, the police, and most of all thanks to all of you for this extraordinary welcome. Thank you. 感谢柏林市民——也感谢德国人民。我要感谢默克尔总理和施泰因迈尔外长今天早些时候对我的欢迎。感谢沃韦雷特市长、柏林参议院、警方，最重要的是，感谢你们所有人的热烈欢迎。谢谢你们。
I come to Berlin as so many of my countrymen have come before; although tonight, I speak to you not as a candidate for President, but as a citizen -- a proud citizen of the United States, and a fellow citizen of the world. 我来到柏林，正如我的许多同胞之前来过这里一样；尽管今晚我不是以总统候选人的身份对你们讲话，而是以一个公民的身份——一个自豪的美国公民，也是世界公民的身份。
I know that I don't look like the Americans who've previously spoken in this great city. The journey that led me here is improbable. My mother was born in the heartland of America, but my father grew up herding goats in Kenya. His father -- His father -- my grandfather -- was a cook, a domestic servant to the British. 我知道我看起来不像之前在这座伟大城市演讲过的那些美国人。带我来到这里的旅程是不可思议的。我的母亲出生在美国的中心地带，但我的父亲在肯尼亚长大，以放牧为生。他的父亲——他的父亲——我的祖父——是一个厨师，一个为英国人服务的家仆。
At the height of the Cold War, my father decided, like so many others in the forgotten corners of the world, that his yearning -- his dream -- required the freedom and opportunity promised by the West. And so he wrote letter after letter to universities all across America until somebody, somewhere answered his prayer for a better life. 在冷战最激烈的时候，我的父亲像世界上许多被遗忘角落里的其他人一样决定，他的渴望——他的梦想——需要西方承诺的自由和机会。因此他给美国各地的大学写了一封又一封信，直到某个地方的某个人回应了他对美好生活的祈祷。
That is why I am here. And you are here because you too know that yearning. This city, of all cities, knows the dream of freedom. And you know that the only reason we stand here tonight is because men and women from both of our nations came together to work, and struggle, and sacrifice for that better life. 这就是我站在这里的原因。你们站在这里，也是因为你们知道那种渴望。这座城市，在所有城市中，最了解自由的梦想。你们知道，我们今晚站在这里的唯一原因，是因为我们两国的男男女女走到一起，为更美好的生活而工作、奋斗和牺牲。
Ours is a partnership that truly began 60 years ago this summer, on the day when the first American plane touched down at Tempelhof. On that day much of this continent still lay in ruin. The rubble of this city had yet to be built into a wall. The Soviet shadow had swept across Eastern Europe, while in the West, America, Britain, and France took their stock of their losses, and pondered how the world might be remade. 我们的伙伴关系真正始于60年前的这个夏天，就在第一架美国飞机降落在滕珀尔霍夫机场的那一天。在那一天，这个大陆的大部分地区仍然是一片废墟。这座城市的瓦砾尚未被建成一堵墙。苏联的阴影席卷了东欧，而在西方，美国、英国和法国正在盘点他们的损失，思考如何重建世界。
This is where the two sides met. And on the twenty-fourth of June, 1948, the Communists chose to blockade the western part of the city. They cut off food and supplies to more than two million Germans in an effort to extinguish the last flame of freedom in Berlin. 双方正是在这里交锋。1948年6月24日，共产主义阵营决定封锁这座城市的西部。他们切断了200多万德国人的食品和物资供应，企图熄灭柏林最后的自由之火。
The size of our forces was no match for the larger Soviet Army. And yet retreat would have allowed Communism to march across Europe. Where the last war had ended, another World War could have easily begun. And all that stood in the way was Berlin. And that's when the airlift began, when the largest and most unlikely rescue in history brought food and hope to the people of this city. 我们的军队规模无法与更庞大的苏联军队匹敌。然而，撤退会让共产主义席卷欧洲。在上一场战争结束之地，另一场世界大战本可能轻易爆发。而挡在它面前的只有柏林。正是在那时，空运开始了——这场历史上规模最大、看似最不可能成功的救援行动，为这座城市的人民带来了食物和希望。
The odds were stacked against success. In the winter, a heavy fog filled the sky above, and many planes were forced to turn back without dropping off the needed supplies. The streets where we stand were filled with hungry families who had no comfort from the cold. 成功的希望极其渺茫。冬天，浓雾笼罩天空，许多飞机被迫返航，未能送下急需的物资。我们此刻站立的街道上挤满了饥饿的家庭，他们无处躲避严寒。
But in the darkest hours, the people of Berlin kept the flame of hope burning. The people of Berlin refused to give up. And on one fall day, hundreds of thousands of Berliners came here, to the Tiergarten, and heard the city's mayor implore the world not to give up on freedom. "There is only one possibility," he said. "For us to stand together united until this battle is won. The people of Berlin have spoken. We have done our duty, and we will keep on doing our duty. People of the world, now do your duty. People of the world, look at Berlin." 但在最黑暗的时刻，柏林人民让希望的火焰继续燃烧。柏林人民拒绝放弃。在一个秋天的日子，数十万柏林人来到这里，来到蒂尔加滕公园，听取该市市长恳求世界不要放弃自由。他说："只有一种可能。让我们团结在一起，直到这场战斗胜利。柏林人民已经发声。我们已经尽了我们的责任，我们将继续尽我们的责任。世界各国人民，现在尽你们的责任。世界各国人民，请看柏林。"
People of the world -- look at Berlin! 世界各国人民——请看柏林！
Look at Berlin, where Germans and Americans learned to work together and trust each other less than three years after facing each other on the field of battle. 请看柏林，德国人和美国人在战场上对峙不到三年后，就学会了合作和相互信任。
Look at Berlin, where the determination of a people met the generosity of the Marshall Plan and created a German miracle; where a victory over tyranny gave rise to NATO, the greatest alliance ever formed to defend our common security. 请看柏林，一个民族的决心与马歇尔计划的慷慨相结合，创造了德国奇迹；对暴政的胜利孕育了北约——有史以来为捍卫我们共同安全而建立的最伟大的联盟。
Look at Berlin, where the bullet holes in the buildings and the somber stones and pillars near the Brandenburg Gate insist that we never forget our common humanity. 请看柏林，建筑物上的弹孔，以及勃兰登堡门附近肃穆的石碑和柱廊，都在提醒我们永远不要忘记共同的人性。
People of the world -- look at Berlin, where a wall came down, a continent came together, and history proved that there is no challenge too great for a world that stands as one. 世界各国人民——请看柏林，一堵墙倒下了，一个大陆团结了，历史证明，只要世界团结一致，就没有克服不了的挑战。
Sixty years after the airlift, we are called upon again. History has led us to a new crossroad, with new promise and new peril. When you, the German people, tore down that wall -- a wall that divided East and West; freedom and tyranny; fear and hope -- walls came tumbling down around the world. 空运60年后，我们再次被召唤。历史把我们带到了一个新的十字路口，有着新的承诺和新的危险。当你们——德国人民——推倒那堵墙时——那堵分隔东西方、自由与暴政、恐惧与希望的墙——世界各地的墙都相继倒塌。
From Kiev to Cape Town, prison camps were closed, and the doors of democracy were opened. Markets opened too, and the spread of information and technology reduced barriers to opportunity and prosperity. While the 20th century taught us that we share a common destiny, the 21st century has revealed a world more intertwined than at any time in human history. 从基辅到开普敦，监狱营地被关闭，民主之门被打开。市场也随之开放，信息与技术的传播减少了通往机遇和繁荣的障碍。20世纪教会我们拥有共同的命运；21世纪则展现了一个在人类历史上前所未有地紧密相连的世界。
The fall of the Berlin Wall brought new hope. But that very closeness has given rise to new dangers -- dangers that cannot be contained within the borders of a country or by the distance of an ocean. 柏林墙的倒塌带来了新的希望。但这种紧密性也带来了新的危险——那些无法被遏制在一个国家境内或被海洋距离所阻隔的危险。
Think about it: The terrorists of September 11th plotted in Hamburg and trained in Kandahar and Karachi before killing thousands from all over the globe on American soil. As we speak, cars in Boston and factories in Beijing are melting the ice caps in the Arctic, shrinking coastlines in the Atlantic, and bringing drought to farms from Kansas to Kenya. 想想看：9·11恐怖分子在汉堡策划，在坎大哈和卡拉奇接受训练，随后在美国国土上杀害了来自世界各地的数千人。就在我们讲话之际，波士顿的汽车和北京的工厂正在融化北极冰盖，侵蚀大西洋沿岸的海岸线，并给从堪萨斯到肯尼亚的农田带来干旱。
Poorly secured nuclear material in the former Soviet Union, or secrets from a scientist in Pakistan could help build a bomb that detonates in Paris. The poppies in Afghanistan come to Berlin in the form of heroin. The poverty and violence in Somalia breeds the terror of tomorrow. The genocide in Darfur shames the conscience of us all. 前苏联安全保障薄弱的核材料，或巴基斯坦科学家的秘密，可能帮助制造一颗在巴黎引爆的炸弹。阿富汗的罂粟以海洛因的形式出现在柏林。索马里的贫困和暴力孕育着明天的恐怖。达尔富尔的种族灭绝让我们所有人的良心蒙羞。
In this new world, such dangerous currents have swept along faster than our efforts to contain them. And that is why we cannot afford to be divided. No one nation, no matter how large or powerful, can defeat such challenges alone. None of us can deny these threats, or escape responsibility in meeting them. In the absence of Soviet tanks and a terrible wall, it has become easy to forget this truth. And if we're honest with each other, we know that sometimes, on both sides of the Atlantic, we have drifted apart, and forgotten our shared destiny. 在这个新世界里，这些危险的潮流席卷的速度超过了我们遏制它们的努力。这就是为什么我们不能承受分裂的代价。没有任何一个国家，无论多么庞大或强大，能够单独击败这些挑战。我们中没有人能否认这些威胁，或逃避应对它们的责任。在没有了苏联坦克和那堵可怕的墙之后，我们很容易忘记这个真理。如果我们彼此诚实，我们知道有时候，在大西洋两岸，我们已经分道扬镳，忘记了我们共同的命运。
In Europe, the view that America is part of what has gone wrong in our world, rather than a force to help us make it right, has become all too common. In America, there are voices that deride and deny the importance of Europe's role in our security and our future. Both views miss the truth: that Europeans today are bearing new burdens and taking more responsibility in critical parts of the world; and that just as American bases built in the last century still help to defend the security of this continent, so does our country still sacrifice greatly for freedom around the globe. 在欧洲，美国是世界问题的一部分，而不是帮助我们解决问题的力量，这种观点已变得过于普遍。在美国，有人嘲笑并否认欧洲在我们安全与未来中所扮演角色的重要性。两种观点都忽略了真相：今天的欧洲人正在承担新的负担，在世界关键地区承担更多责任；正如上个世纪建造的美国基地仍在帮助捍卫这个大陆的安全一样，我们的国家仍在为全球的自由做出巨大牺牲。
Yes, there have been differences between America and Europe. No doubt, there will be differences in the future. But the burdens of global citizenship continue to bind us together. A change of leadership in Washington will not lift this burden. In this new century, Americans and Europeans alike will be required to do more -- not less. Partnership and cooperation among nations is not a choice; it is the only way, the one way, to protect our common security and advance our common humanity. 是的，美欧之间存在分歧。毫无疑问，未来还会有分歧。但全球公民的负担继续把我们绑在一起。华盛顿的领导层更迭不会解除这一负担。在这个新世纪，美国人和欧洲人都将被要求做更多——而不是更少。国家之间的伙伴关系与合作不是一种选择；它是保护我们共同安全、推进我们共同人性的唯一途径。
That is why the greatest danger of all is to allow new walls to divide us from one another. The walls between old allies on either side of the Atlantic cannot stand. The walls between the countries with the most and those with the least cannot stand. The walls between races and tribes; natives and immigrants; Christians and Muslims and Jews cannot stand. These now are the walls we must tear down. 这就是为什么最大的危险是让新的墙把我们彼此隔开。大西洋两岸老盟友之间的墙不能存在。最富有国家与最贫穷国家之间的墙不能存在。种族与部落之间；土著与移民之间；基督徒、穆斯林和犹太人之间的墙不能存在。这些就是我们必须拆除的墙。
We know that these walls have fallen before. After centuries of strife, the people of Europe have formed a Union of promise and prosperity. Here, at the base of a column built to mark victory in war, we meet in the center of a Europe at peace. Not only have walls come down in Berlin, but they've come down in Belfast, where Protestant and Catholic found a way to live together; in the Balkans, where our Atlantic alliance ended wars and brought savage war criminals to justice; and in South Africa, where the struggle of a courageous people defeated apartheid. 我们知道，这些墙以前就倒下过。经过几个世纪的冲突，欧洲人民已经形成了一个充满承诺与繁荣的联盟。在这里，在一座为纪念战争胜利而建造的柱子的脚下，我们在一个和平的欧洲中心相聚。不仅柏林的墙倒下了，贝尔法斯特的墙也倒下了，那里的新教徒和天主教徒找到了共同生活的方式；巴尔干的墙也倒下了，我们的大西洋联盟结束了战争，将残暴的战犯绳之以法；南非的墙也倒下了，一个勇敢民族的斗争击败了种族隔离。
So history reminds us that walls can be torn down. But the task is never easy. True partnership and true progress requires constant work and sustained sacrifice. They require sharing the burdens of development and diplomacy; of peace and progress. They require allies who will listen to each other, learn from each other and, most of all, trust each other. 所以历史提醒我们，墙是可以被拆除的。但这项工作从来都不容易。真正的伙伴关系和真正的进步需要持续的努力和持久的牺牲。它们需要分担发展与外交的负担；分担和平与进步的负担。它们需要能够相互倾听、相互学习，最重要的是相互信任的盟友。
That is why America cannot turn inward. That is why Europe cannot turn inward. America has no better partner than Europe. Now is the time to build new bridges across the globe as strong as the one that binds us across the Atlantic. 这就是为什么美国不能转向内。这就是为什么欧洲不能转向内。美国没有比欧洲更好的伙伴。现在是在全球范围内建造新桥梁的时候了，其强度要不亚于连接我们横跨大西洋的那座桥。
Now is the time to join together, through constant cooperation and strong institutions and shared sacrifice and a global commitment to progress, to meet the challenges of the 21st century. It was this spirit that led airlift planes to appear in the sky above our heads, and people to assemble where we stand today. And this is the moment when our nations -- and all nations -- must summon that spirit anew. 现在是通过持续合作、强有力的制度、共同牺牲和对进步的全球承诺联合起来，应对21世纪挑战的时候了。正是这种精神引领空运飞机出现在我们头顶的天空，人们在我们今天站立的地方聚集。而这正是我们各国——以及所有国家——必须重新唤起这种精神的时刻。
This is the moment when we must defeat terror and dry up the well of extremism that supports it. This threat is real and we cannot shrink from our responsibility to combat it. If we could create NATO to face down the Soviet Union, we can join in a new and global partnership to dismantle the networks that have struck in Madrid and Amman; in London and Bali; in Washington and New York. If we could win a battle of ideas against the communists, we can stand with the vast majority of Muslims who reject the extremism that leads to hate instead of hope. 这是我们必须击败恐怖主义、铲除滋养它的极端主义根源的时刻。这一威胁真实存在，我们不能逃避与之斗争的责任。如果我们能够创建北约来对抗苏联，就能结成新的全球伙伴关系，瓦解那些曾袭击马德里和安曼、伦敦和巴厘岛、华盛顿和纽约的网络。如果我们能够在思想较量中战胜共产主义者，就能与绝大多数穆斯林站在一起；他们拒绝那种以仇恨取代希望的极端主义。
This is the moment when we must renew our resolve to rout the terrorists who threaten our security in Afghanistan, and the traffickers who sell drugs on your streets. No one welcomes war. I recognize the enormous difficulties in Afghanistan. But my country and yours have a stake in seeing that NATO's first mission beyond Europe's borders is a success. 这是我们必须再次下定决心，击溃阿富汗境内威胁我们安全的恐怖分子，以及在你们街头贩卖毒品的毒贩的时刻。没有人欢迎战争。我明白阿富汗局势困难重重。但无论我的国家还是你们的国家，都与北约首次在欧洲边界之外执行的任务能否成功利害攸关。
For the people of Afghanistan, and for our shared security, the work must be done. America can't do this alone. The Afghan people need our troops and your troops; our support and your support to defeat the Taliban and al Qaeda, to develop their economy, and to help them rebuild their nation. We have too much at stake to turn back now. 对阿富汗人民，以及对我们的共同安全而言，这项工作必须完成。美国不能单独完成这项工作。阿富汗人民需要我们的军队和你们的军队；需要我们的支持和你们的支持，来击败塔利班和基地组织，发展他们的经济，帮助他们重建国家。我们有太多的利害关系，不能现在回头。
This is the moment when we must renew the goal of a world without nuclear weapons. The two superpowers that faced each other across the wall of this city came too close too often to destroying all we have built and all that we love. With that wall gone, we need not stand idly by and watch the further spread of the deadly atom. It is time to secure all loose nuclear materials; to stop the spread of nuclear weapons; and to reduce the arsenals from another era. This is the moment to begin the work of seeking the peace of a world without nuclear weapons. 这是我们必须重申一个没有核武器的世界目标的时刻。曾经在这座城市的墙两侧对峙的两个超级大国，屡屡濒临毁灭我们所建设的一切和我们所热爱的一切。随着那堵墙的消失，我们不需要袖手旁观，看着致命的原子进一步扩散。现在是确保所有松散核材料安全的时候了；是阻止核武器扩散的时候了；是削减另一个时代的军火库的时候了。这是开始寻求一个没有核武器世界和平工作的时刻。
This is the moment when every nation in Europe must have the chance to choose its own tomorrow, free from the shadows of yesterday. In this century, we need a strong European Union that deepens the security and prosperity of this continent, while extending a hand abroad. In this city of all cities, we must reject the Cold War mind-set of the past, and resolve to work with Russia when we can, to stand up for our values when we must, and to seek a partnership that extends across this entire continent. 这是欧洲每个国家必须有机会选择自己明天的时刻，不受昨天阴影的束缚。在这个世纪，我们需要一个强大的欧盟，它既加深这个大陆的安全与繁荣，又向海外伸出援手。在这个所有城市中的城市里，我们必须拒绝过去的冷战思维，决心在可能时与俄罗斯合作，在必要时捍卫我们的价值观，并寻求覆盖整个大陆的伙伴关系。
This is the moment when we must build on the wealth that open markets have created, and share its benefits more equitably. Trade has been a cornerstone of our growth and global development. But we will not be able to sustain this growth if it favors the few, and not the many. Together we must forge trade that truly rewards the work that creates wealth, with meaningful protections for our people and our planet. This is the moment for trade that is free and fair for all. 这是我们必须在开放市场创造的财富基础上再接再厉，更公平地分享其利益的时刻。贸易一直是我们增长和全球发展的基石。但如果它有利于少数人而不是多数人，我们将无法维持这种增长。我们必须共同锻造真正奖励创造财富的工作的贸易，为我们的人民和地球提供有意义的保护。这是追求自由与公平贸易的时刻。
This is the moment we must help answer the call for a new dawn in the Middle East. My country must stand with yours and with Europe in sending a direct message to Iran that it must abandon its nuclear ambitions. We must support the Lebanese who've marched and bled for democracy, and the Israelis and the Palestinians who seek a secure and lasting peace. And despite past differences, this is the moment when the world should support the millions of Iraqis who seek to rebuild their lives, even as we pass responsibility to the Iraqi government and finally bring this war to a close. 这是我们必须回应对中东新曙光呼唤的时刻。我国必须与你们和欧洲站在一起，向伊朗发出明确信息：它必须放弃核野心。我们必须支持为民主而游行和流血的黎巴嫩人民，以及寻求安全与持久和平的以色列人和巴勒斯坦人。尽管过去有分歧，这也是世界应该支持数百万伊拉克人重建生活的时刻，同时我们将责任移交给伊拉克政府，最终结束这场战争。
This is the moment when we must come together to save this planet. Let us resolve that we will not leave our children to a world where the oceans rise and famine spreads and terrible storms devastate our lands. Let us resolve that all nations -- including my own -- will act with the same seriousness of purpose as has your nation, and reduce the carbon we send into our atmosphere. This is the moment to give our children back their future. This is the moment to stand as one. 这是我们必须携手拯救这个星球的时刻。让我们决心不让我们的子孙后代生活在海洋上升、饥荒蔓延、可怕风暴摧毁我们家园的世界里。让我们决心所有国家——包括我自己的国家——都以与你们国家同样的认真态度行事，减少我们排入大气的碳。这是把未来还给我们的孩子的时刻。这是团结一致的时刻。
And this is the moment when we must give hope to those left behind in a globalized world. We must remember that the Cold War born in this city was not a battle for land or treasure. Sixty years ago, the planes that flew over Berlin did not drop bombs; instead they delivered food, and coal, and candy to grateful children. And in that show of solidarity, those pilots won more than a military victory. They won hearts and minds; love and loyalty and trust -- not just from the people in this city, but from all those who heard the story of what they did here. 这也是我们必须给全球化世界中那些被甩在后面的人们带来希望的时刻。我们必须记住，诞生于这座城市的冷战不是一场争夺土地或财富的战争。60年前，飞越柏林的飞机没有投下炸弹；相反，它们为感激的孩子们送去了食物、煤炭和糖果。在那种团结的展示中，那些飞行员赢得的不仅仅是一场军事胜利。他们赢得了人心与思想；爱、忠诚与信任——不仅来自这座城市的人民，还来自所有那些听说了他们在这里所做的一切的人们。
Now the world will watch and remember what we do here -- what we do with this moment. Will we extend our hand to the people in the forgotten corners of this world who yearn for lives marked by dignity and opportunity, by security and justice? Will we lift the child in Bangladesh from poverty, and shelter the refugee in Chad, and banish the scourge of AIDS in our time? 现在，世界将会关注并记住我们在这里做什么——我们如何利用这个时刻。我们是否会向这个世界上那些被遗忘的角落里渴望有尊严和机会、安全和正义生活的人们伸出援手？我们是否会将孟加拉国的孩子从贫困中解救出来，为乍得的难民提供庇护，并在我们这个时代消除艾滋病的祸害？
Will we stand for the human rights of the dissident in Burma, the blogger in Iran, or the voter in Zimbabwe? Will we give meaning to the words "never again" in Darfur? 我们是否会捍卫缅甸异见人士、伊朗博客作者和津巴布韦选民的人权？我们是否会让“绝不重演”这句话在达尔富尔成为现实？
Will we acknowledge that there is no more powerful example than the one each of our nations projects to the world? Will we reject torture and stand for the rule of law? Will we welcome immigrants from different lands, and shun discrimination against those who don't look like us or worship like we do, and keep the promise of equality and opportunity for all of our people? 我们是否会承认，没有比我们每个国家向世界展示的榜样更强大的力量？我们是否会拒绝酷刑，坚持法治？我们是否会欢迎来自不同土地的移民，唾弃对那些与我们长相不同或信仰不同的人的歧视，并对我们所有的人民坚守平等与机会的承诺？
People of Berlin -- people of the world -- this is our moment. This is our time. 柏林人民——世界人民——这是属于我们的时刻。这是属于我们的时代。
I know my country has not perfected itself. At times, we've struggled to keep the promise of liberty and equality for all of our people. We've made our share of mistakes, and there are times when our actions around the world have not lived up to our best intentions. 我知道，我的国家尚不完美。有时，我们竭力信守给予全体人民自由与平等的承诺。我们犯过应由自己承担的错误，有时我们在世界上的行动也未能达到我们最美好的初衷。
But I also know how much I love America. I know that for more than two centuries, we have strived -- at great cost and great sacrifice -- to form a more perfect union; to seek, with other nations, a more hopeful world. 但我也知道自己有多么热爱美国。我知道，两个多世纪以来，我们付出巨大代价和牺牲，努力建设一个更完善的联邦；并与其他国家一道，寻求一个更有希望的世界。
Our allegiance has never been to any particular tribe or kingdom -- indeed, every language is spoken in our country; every culture has left its imprint on ours; every point of view is expressed in our public squares. What has always united us, what has always driven our people, what drew my father to America's shores -- is a set of ideals that speak to aspirations shared by all people: that we can live free from fear and free from want; that we can speak our minds and assemble with whomever we choose and worship as we please. 我们效忠的从来不是某个特定的部族或王国——事实上，我国有人使用各种语言；每一种文化都在我们的文化中留下印记；各种观点都能在公共广场上得到表达。始终把我们团结起来、始终驱动我国人民、吸引我父亲来到美国海岸的，是一套表达全人类共同愿望的理想：我们能够免于恐惧、免于匮乏；我们能够畅所欲言，能够与自己选择的人自由集会，并按自己的意愿信仰宗教。
These are the aspirations that join the fates of all nations in this city. These aspirations are bigger than anything that drives us apart. It is because of these aspirations that the airlift began. It is because of these aspirations that all free people -- everywhere -- became citizens of Berlin. It is in pursuit of these aspirations that a new generation -- our generation -- must make our mark on the world. 正是这些愿望，把所有国家的命运在这座城市联结起来。这些愿望比任何使我们分裂的事物都更强大。正是因为这些愿望，柏林空运得以启动。正是因为这些愿望，世界各地所有自由的人都成为柏林的公民。为了追求这些愿望，新的一代——我们这一代——必须在世界上留下自己的印记。
People of Berlin -- and people of the world -- the scale of our challenge is great. The road ahead will be long. But I come before you to say that we are heirs to a struggle for freedom. We are a people of improbable hope. With an eye toward the future, with resolve in our heart, let us remember this history, and answer our destiny, and remake the world once again. 柏林人民——以及世界人民——我们面临的挑战规模巨大。前路将十分漫长。但我来到你们面前，是要说：我们继承了争取自由的斗争。我们是一个怀抱非凡希望的民族。让我们着眼未来，心怀决心，铭记这段历史，回应我们的使命，再一次重塑世界。
Thank you, Berlin. God bless you. Thank you. Thank you. 谢谢你，柏林。愿上帝保佑你们。谢谢。谢谢。
