历史英雄名人演讲 第28期:我有一个梦想(2)

 　　I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.

　　我梦想有一天，我的四个小女儿将生活在一个不是以皮肤的颜色，而是以品格的优劣作为评判标准的国家里。

　　I have a dream today!

　　我今天怀有一个梦。

　　I have a dream that one day, down in Alabama, with its vicious racists, with its governor having his lips dripping with the words of "interposition" and "nullification" -- one day right there in Alabama little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls as sisters and brothers.

　　我梦想有一天，亚拉巴马州会有所改变--尽管该州州长现在仍滔滔不绝地说什么要对联邦法令提出异议和拒绝执行--在那里，黑人儿童能够和白人儿童兄弟姐妹般地携手并行。

　　I have a dream today!

　　我今天怀有一个梦。

　　I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted¹, and every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plain, and the crooked² places will be made straight; "and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed and all flesh shall see it together."?

　　我梦想有一天，深谷弥合，高山夷平，歧路化坦途，曲径成通衢，上帝的光华再现，普天下生灵共谒。
