【英文&原音】

I'd like to propose a toast. My father is someone who goes after what he wants, and Lily Van Der Woodsen was no exception. In typical Bass¹ man fashion, his pursuit was direct, and at times, not exactly subtle. One thing I learned from my father's courtship of Lily is the importance of perseverance-- That in the face of true love, you don't just give up, even if the object of your affection is begging you to. And one thing I learned from Lily is the importance of forgiveness. She gave my father the gift of a second chance. And in kind, I've watched him become someone actually worthy² of that gift. And one day, I hope I'll be lucky enough to find someone who will do the same for me.

我提议大家干一杯。我父亲是一个勇于追求的人，面对Lily Van Der Woodsen也不例外。正如Bass家族的传统，他的追求直接同时悉心。我父亲对Lily的求爱让我学到了坚持的重要—— 面对真爱，永不放弃。即使所爱之人请求你离开。同时我向Lily学到宽恕的重要。她给予了父亲第二次机会。作为回报，父亲抓住了机会，用改变证明了自己。希望有一天，我有如此幸运，有人会给我这样的机会。
