宋美龄美国国会演讲

Mr.President, Members of the Senate of the United States, ladies and gentlemen,am overwhelmed by the warmth andspontaneity of the welcome of the American people, of whom you are the representatives.I did not know that I was to speak to you today at the Senate except to say, “How do you do? I am so very glad to see you,” and to bring the greetings to my people to the people of America.However, just before coming here, the Vice President told me that he would like to have me say a few words to you.I am not a very good extemporaneous speaker;in fact, I am no speaker at all;but I am not so very much discouraged, because a few days ago I was at Hyde Park, and went to the President’s library.Something I saw there encouraged me, and made me feel that perhaps you will not expect overmuch of me in speaking to you extemporaneously.What do you think I saw there? I saw many things.But the one thing which interested me most of all was that in a glass case there was the first draft of tone of the President’s speeches, a second draft, and on and on up to the sixth draft.Yesterday I happened to mention this fact to the President, and told him that I was extremely glad that he had to write so many drafts when he is such a well-known and acknowledgedly fine speaker.His reply to me was that sometimes he writes 12 drafts of a speech.So, my remarks here today, being extemporaneous, I am sure you will make allowances for me.The traditional friendship between your country and mine has a history of 160 years.I feel, and I believe that I am now the only one who feels this way, that there are a great many similarities between your people and mine, and that these similarities are the basis of our friendship.I should like to tell you a little story which will illustrate this belief.When General Doolittle and his men went to bomb Tokyo, on their return some of your boys had to bail out in the interior of China.One of them later told me that he had to mail out of his ship.And that when he landed on Chinese soil and saw the populace running toward him, he just waved his arm and shouted the only Chinese word he knew, “Mei-kuo, Mei-kuo,” which means “America,” [Applause.] Literally translated from the Chinese it means “Beautiful country.” This boy said that our people laughed and almost hugged him, and greeted him like a long lost brother.He further told me that the thought that he had come home when he saw our people;and that was the first time he had ever been to China.[Applause.] I came to your country as a little girl.I know your people.I have lived with them.I spent the formative years of my life amongst your people.I speak your language, not only the language of your hearts, but also your tongue.So coming here today I feel that I am also coming home.[Applause.] I believe, however, that it is not only I who am coming home;I feel that if the Chinese people could speak to you in your own tongue, or if you could understand our tongue, they would tell you that basically and fundamentally we are fighting for the same cause [great applause];that we have identity of ideals’ that the “four freedoms,” which your President proclaimed to the world, resound throughout our vast land as the gong of freedom, the gong of freedom of the United Nations, and the death knell of the aggressors.[Applause.] How are we going to realize these ideals I think I shall tell you a little sto ry which just came to my mind.As you know.China is a very old nation.We have a history of 5,000 years.When we were obliged to evacuate Hankow and go into the hinterland to carry on and continue our resistance against aggression, the Generalissimo and I passed one of our fronts, the Changsha front.One day we went into the Heng-yang Mountains, where there are traces of a famous pavilion called“Rub-the-mirror”pavilion, which was built over 2,000 years ago.It will perhaps interest you to hear the story of that pavilion.Two thousand years ago near that spot was an old Buddhist temple.One of the young monks went there, and all day long he sat crosslegged, with his hands clasped before him in an attitude of prayer, and murmured“Amita-Buddha!Amita-Buddha!Amita-Buddha!” He murmured and chanted day after day, because he hoped that he would acquire grace.The Father Prior of that temple took a piece of brick and rubbed it against a stone hour after hour, day after day, and week after week.The little acolyte, being very young, sometimes cast his eyes around to see what the old Father Prior was doing.The

old Father Prior just kept on his work of rubbing the brick against the stone.So one day the young acolyte said to him.“Father Prior, what are you doing day after day rubbing this brick on the stone”The Father Prior replied, “I am trying to make a mirror out of this brick.”The young acolyte said,“But it is impossible to make a mirror out of a brick, Father Prior.”“Yes,”said the Father Prior,“and it is just as impossible for you yo acquire grace by doing nothing except murmur 'Amita-Buddha' all day long, day in and day out.”(Applause.)So, my friends, I feel that it is necessary for us not only to have ideals and to proclaim that we have them, it is necessary that we act to implement them.And so to you, gentlemen of the Senate, and to you ladies and gentlemen in the galleries, I say that without the active help of all of us our leader cannot implement these ideals.It is up to you and to me to take to heart the lesson of “Rub-the-mirror” pavilion.I thank you.(Great applause, Senators and their guests arising.)

I am not a very good extemporaneous speaker;in fact, I am no speaker at all;but I am not so very much discouraged, because a few days ago I was at Hyde Pa rk, and went to the President''s library.Something I saw there encouraged me,and made me feel that perhaps you will not expect overmuch of me in speaking t o you extemporaneously.What do you think I saw there I saw many things, but t he one thing which interested me most of all was that in a glass case there wa s the first draft of one of the President''s speeches, a second draft, and on a nd on up to the sixth draft.Yesterday I happened to mention this fact to thePresident, and told him that I was extremely glad that he had to write so many drafts when he is such a well-known and acknowledgedly fine speaker.His repl y to me was that sometimes he writes 12 drafts of a speech.So, my remarks her e today, being extemporaneous, I am sure you will make allowances for me.我并不擅于即席演说，事实上根本称不上是演说家，但我不会因此怯场，因为前几天我在 海德公园参观过总统图书馆，在那里看见的一些东西鼓励了我，让我感觉各位或许不会对 我的即席演说要求太多。各位知道我在那里见到什么吗？我看到了许多，但最让我感兴趣 的，莫过于一个放着总统先生(译按，即罗斯福总统）演说草稿的玻璃箱，里头从第一份草 稿、第二份草稿，一直到第六份草稿。昨天，我碰巧向总统先生提及此事，我说我很高兴 知道，以他如此知名又公认一流的演说家，还必须写这么多份草稿。他回答说，有时他一 次演说得写12份草稿。因此，今天本人在此发表的即席演说，我确信各位一定会包容。

The traditional friendship between your country and mine has a history of 160years.I feel--and I believe that I am not the only one who feels this way--th at there are a great many similarities between your people and mine, and thatthese similarlties are the basis of our friendship.贵国和敝国之间有着160年悠久历史的情谊，我觉得贵国人民和敝国百姓有许许多多的相似 点，而这些相似点正是两国情谊的基础，我也相信不是只有我有这样的感觉。

I should like to tell you a little story which will illustrate this belief.Wh en General Doolittle and his men went to bomb Tokyo, on their return some of y our boys had to bail out in the interior of China.One of them later told me t hat he had to bail out of his ship.and that when he landed on Chinese soil an d saw the populace running toward him, he just waved his arm and shouted the o nly Chinese word he knew,“Mei-kuo, Mei-kuo,” which means "America.” Literal ly translated from the Chinese it means“Beautiful country.”This boy said tha t our people laughed and almost hugged him, and greeted him like a long lost b rother.He further told me that he thought that he had come home when he saw o ur people;and that was the first time he had ever been to China.(Applause.)

在此，我想说个小故事，来说明此一信念。杜立德将军和部下一起去轰炸东京，回程时有 些美国子弟兵不得不在中国内陆跳伞。其中一人后来告诉我，他被迫从飞机跳伞，踏上中 国的土地时，看到当地居民跑向他，他就挥着手，喊出他会说的唯一一句中国话：「美国，美国」，也就是「美利坚」的意思，（掌声）美国在中国话的意思是「美丽的国家」。这个大男孩说，敝国人民听了都笑开来，拥抱他，像欢迎失散多年的兄弟一般。他还告诉 我说，当他看到我们的人民，感觉他已经回到家；而那是他第一次来到中国。（掌声）

I came to your country as a little girl.I know your people.I have lived with them.I spent the formative years of my life amongst your people.I speak you r language, not only the language of your hearts, but also your tongue.So com ing here today I feel that I am also coming home.(Applause)]

我来到贵国时是个小女孩，我熟悉贵国人民，我和他们一起生活过。我生命中成长的岁月 是和贵国人民一起度过，我说你们的话，我想的和你们一样,说的也和你们一样。所以今天 来到这里，我也感觉我好像回到家了。（掌声）

I believe, however, that it is not only I who am coming home, I feel that if t he Chinese people could speak to you in your own tongue, or if you could under stand our tongue, they would tell you that basically and fundamentally we arefighting for the same cause(great applause);that we have identity of ideals;that the “four freedoms,” which your President proclaimed to the world, re sound throughout our vast land as the gong of freedom, the gong of freedom ofthe United Nations, and the death knell of the aggressors.(Applause.)

不过，我相信不只是我回到家，我觉得，如果中国人民会用你们的语言与你们说话，或是 你们能了解我们的语言，他们会告诉你们，根本而言，我们都在为相同的理念奋战（如雷 掌声）；我们有一致的理想；亦即贵国总统向全世界揭示的「四个自由」，自由的钟声、联合国自由的钟声，和侵略者的丧钟响彻我国辽阔的土地。（掌声）

I assure you that our people are willing and eager to cooperate with you in th e realization of these ideals, because we want to see to it that they do not e cho as empty phrases, but become realities for ourselves, for our children, fo

r our children''s children, and for all mankind.(Applause.)

谨向各位保证，敝国人民深愿亦渴望为实现这些理想和贵国合作，因为我们希望这些理想 不会流于空言，而是成为我们、我们的子子孙孙、全人类的真况实境。（掌声）

How are we going to realize these ideals I think I shall tell you a little sto ry which just came to my mind.As you know.China is a very old nation.We hav e a history of 5,000 years.When we were obliged to evacuate Hankow and go int o the hinterland to carry on and continue our resistance against aggression, t he Generalissimo and I passed one of our fronts, the Changsha front.One day w e went into the Heng-yang Mountains, where there are traces of a famous pavili on called“Rub-the-mirror”pavilion, which was built over 2,000 years ago.Itwill perhaps interest you to hear the story of that pavilion.我们要如何实现这些理想 我想，我可以告诉各位一个我刚想到的小故事。各位知道，中国 是一个非常古老的国家。我们有五千年历史。我们被迫从汉口撤退，转入大后方继续抵抗 侵略的时候，蒋委员长和我经过一处前线，就在长沙。有一天，我们上衡山，山上有一处 有名的遗迹，叫「磨镜台」，是两千多年前的古迹。诸位或许有兴趣听听这古迹的故事。

Two thousand years ago near that spot was an old Buddhist temple.One of the y oung monks went there, and all day long he sat crosslegged, with his hands cla sped before him in an attitude of prayer, and murmured“Amita-Buddha!Amita-Bu ddha!Amita-Buddha!” He murmured and chanted day after day, because he hopedthat he would acquire grace.两千年前，台址近旁有一座古老的佛寺。一名年轻和尚来此修行，他整天盘腿坐禅，双手 合十，口中喃喃念着「阿弥陀佛!阿弥陀佛!阿弥陀佛!」他唱念佛号，日复一日，因为 他希望成佛。

The Father Prior of that temple took a piece of brick and rubbed it against astone hour after hour, day after day, and week after week.The little acolyte, being very young, sometimes cast his eyes around to see what the old Father P rior was doing.The old Father Prior just kept on his work of rubbing the bric k against the stone.So one day the young acolyte said to him.“Father Prior,what are you doing day after day rubbing this brick on the stone”The Father P rior replied, “I am trying to make a mirror out of this brick.”The young aco lyte said,“But it is impossible to make a mirror out of a brick, Father Prior.”“Yes,”said the Father Prior,“and it is just as impossible for you yo acq uire grace by doing nothing except murmur ''Amita-Buddha'' all day long, day inand day out.”(Applause.)

寺里的住持于是也跟着拿一块砖去磨一块石头，时时刻刻的磨，一天又一天的磨，一周又 一周的磨。小和尚有时抬眼瞧瞧老和尚在做什么。住持只是一个劲儿拿砖磨石。终于有一 天，小和尚对住持说，「大师，您每天拿这块砖磨石头，到底为什么呢 」住持答道：「我要用这块砖做镜子。」小和尚说：「可砖块是做不成镜子的呀，大师。」「没错，」住持 说，「就像你成天光念阿弥陀佛，是成不了佛的。」(掌声)

So, my friends, I feel that it is necessary for us not only to have ideals and to proclaim that we have them, it is necessary that we act to implement them.And so to you, gentlemen of the Senate, and to you ladies and gentlemen in th e galleries, I say that without the active help of all of us our leader cannot implement these ideals.It is up to you and to me to take to heart the lesson of “Rub-the-mirror” pavilion.因此，朋友们，我觉得，我们不但必须有理想，不但要昭告我们有理想，我们还必须以行 动来落实理想。(掌声)所以，我要对诸位参议员先生，以及旁听席上的女士先生说，没有 我们大家的积极协助，我们的领袖无法落实这些理想。诸位和我都必须紧记「磨镜台」的 教训。

I thank you.(Great applause, Senators and their guests arising.)

我谢谢大家。(全场掌声，议员与来宾起立。)

第四篇：2016安倍美国国会演讲稿全文

2016安倍美国国会演讲稿全文

安倍美国国会演讲稿全文为大家整理日本首相安倍晋三在美国4月29日美国国会上发表的演讲，也是表达今年战后70周年表现历史观的演讲，在演讲中他根据美国和他，美国民主和日本，二战的记忆以及战后的日本几个方面作出讲话。下面是这篇安倍美国国会演讲稿全文 迈向希望的同盟

议长先生，副总统先生，尊敬的参众两院议员、尊敬的贵宾，女士们，先生们，1957年6月，我的外祖父，时任日本首相岸信介也曾站在这里，以这样的一句话开启了他的讲演：“正是因为我们对民主原则和理想的坚信不疑，日本决定站在自由世界的一方。” 58年过去了。今天，我也非常荣幸地站到了这里，成为首位向美国参众两院联席会议发表讲演的日本首相。我对你们的邀请表示衷心的感谢。

我有许多想说的东西。但我今天并不打算进行长篇大论，我也没有这样的能力。

今天，当我站在你们面前时，我想起了尊敬的你们同事们的名字，他们曾作为日本驻美大使受到日本的欢迎。他们是麦克-孟斯菲尔德、沃尔特-蒙代尔、汤姆-福莱、霍华德-贝克。

我代表日本人民，对于你们派出这样杰出的民主斗士致以热切的感谢。

卡罗琳-肯尼迪大使同样延续了美国民主的传统。非常感谢肯尼迪大使，感谢你为我们所有人所做的杰出工作。

我们所有人也都很怀念参议员丹尼尔-井上，他代表着日裔美国人所取得的荣誉和成就。美国和我

女士们，先生们，我与美国的首次接触可以追溯至我的学生时代，当时我在加州留学。我住在一位名叫卡瑟琳-戴尔-弗朗西亚的女士家里。

作为一位寡妇，她总是谈起她已经过世的丈夫。她说：“你知道，他要比加里-库珀还要帅。”她可是认真的。

你看，我的妻子昭惠正坐在听众席。但我可不敢问她对我的看法。

弗朗西亚女士做得一手独步天下的意大利菜。她总是很快乐，非常和善，让许多人在她家留宿。

这些人都有非常不同的背景，我对此感到很惊讶，并对自己说：“美国真是个很棒的国家。” 之后，我在一家钢铁公司找到一份工作，并有机会去纽约工作。

美国没有级别和论资排辈的现象。人们靠业绩说话。当你和别人讨论事情时，你不用在意对方的资历深浅。人们看重的是一个想法本身是否很棒，而不是这个想法由谁提出。这种文化真令我着迷。

也因此，在我当选日本众院议员后，我所在政党的一些前辈会说：“嗨，安倍，你脸皮可真厚。” 美国民主和日本

就我的姓而言，它不念做“埃比”(Eighb)。

有些美国人不时这样称呼我，但我也不觉得遭到了冒犯。

这是因为，女士们和先生们，日本人自开启现代化进程以来就在葛底斯堡讲演的著名段落中看到了民主的基础。

农民和木匠的儿子可以成为总统，19世纪晚期，日本被这样一个国家唤醒了民主意识。对于日本来说，与美国的首次接触也是我们与民主的接触。这已经是150多年前的事了。这使我们一起拥有共同的成熟的历史。二战的记忆

在来到这里之前，我访问了二战纪念馆，那是一个平和安静的地方，让我想起了圣殿。空气中满是喷泉流水的声音。

在纪念馆的一角，有一面自由墙，上面闪耀着4000多个金色的星子。听说每颗星代表着100位阵亡的士兵后，我当下便惊的目瞪口呆。

我相信，这些金色的星星是象征着人们为捍卫自由所作出的牺牲，这种牺牲无疑是高贵的。但这之中也凝聚着死者家人的痛苦、悲伤和爱。这些英年早逝的美国年轻人本应有一个幸福的人生。

珍珠港、巴丹岛及科雷吉多尔岛、珊瑚海......这些被铭刻在纪念馆的战役在我的脑海中浮现，我忍不住思考起这些阵亡的年轻人失去的梦想和未来。历史是严厉的。已铸之事无法抹去。

带着深深的忏悔(deeprepentance)，我站在那里，静默地祈祷了一会儿。

我亲爱的朋友，我谨代表代表日本和日本人民，向二战期间死去的所有美国亡魂，致以深深的敬意和永恒的哀悼。过去是敌人，现在是朋友

女士们先生们，劳伦斯-斯诺登中今天也来到了现场。

70年前的2月，他在硫磺岛登陆。那时他是一个上尉，指挥一个连队。近年来，斯诺登将军经常出席日美两国在硫磺岛举行的联合纪念活动。

他曾说过，“我们过去不是，现在也不是去硫磺岛庆祝胜利。我们只有一个庄严的目的，即向双方在战争中失去生命的人员致以敬意和荣誉。”(butforthesolemnpurposetopaytributetoandhonorthosewholosttheirlivesonbothsides.)坐在斯诺登将军旁边的是日本议员新藤义孝，他曾在我的内阁任职。他的外祖父祖父栗林忠道是硫磺岛战役期间的日军最高指挥官，我们直到今天还记得他的勇气。如果这不是历史的奇迹的话，还能称之为什么呢? 曾以命向搏的敌人现在成为了心灵相通的朋友。

我要对斯诺登将军说，我对你所作出的和解努力表示敬意。非常感谢。美国和战后日本

在二战后，我们重新上路，牢记着对二战的深切懊悔(deepremorse)之情。我们的行为使亚洲国家的人们饱经苦难。我们一定不能无视这一切。我将支持历任首相在这方面所表达的观点。

我们必须在各个方面更加致力于亚洲的发展。我们必须为亚洲地区的和平和繁荣竭尽全力。

我们一路走来，时刻提醒自己牢记这一切。我为日本所选择的道路感到自豪。70年前，战后的日本沦为一片硝烟弥漫的废墟。

当时，每个月都有美国公民向日本捐赠礼物，例如给孩子们的牛奶和暖和的羊毛衫，甚至还有山羊。是的，美国向日本赠送了2036头山羊。

最初，也是日本从美国推动的战后经济制度中获得了最大的好处。当时美国开放了自己的市场，呼吁建立自由的世界经济。

随后，自上世纪80年代以来，我们看到了韩国、台湾、和东盟国家的崛起。再过不久，就是中国的崛起。

这一次，日本也为这些国家的经济增长作出了贡献，投入了大量的资本和技术。与此同时，日本在美国创造的就业岗位数量仅次于英国，位居第二。跨太平洋战略经济伙伴关系协定(Tpp)美国首先通过这种方式促进了繁荣，随后是日本。而繁荣就是和平的温床。

有多个亚太国家涉及该协定，它们的背景各不相同，美国和日本必须发挥领导作用。我们必须发挥领导作用，建立一个公正、有活力、可持续的、不受任何国家专断意图影响的市场。

在太平洋市场，我们不能忽视血汗工厂或经济发展给环境造成的负担。我们也不能容许在知识产权方面搭便车的现象。

相反，我们应当在世界各地传播共同的价值观，即法治、民主和自由，让它们生根发芽。这正是Tpp的实质所在。

此外，Tpp并不只有经济上的好处，它还事关我们的安全。从长远来看，它的战略价值将是巨大的，我们永远不应忘记这一点。

Tpp覆盖的地区，经济总量占世界经济总量的四成，占全球贸易额的1/3。我们必须将这一区域发展一个拥有持久的和平与繁荣的地区。

这一切是为了我们的孩子，和他们的后代。至于美日谈判，我们已接近达成目标。让我们通过共同的领导来成功完成Tpp吧。为更强大的日本而进行改革

事实上，我现在可以告诉你们一些事情。

那是在近20年前，当时正在进行农业领域的GATT(即关税及贸易总协定)谈判。

我当时要年轻的多，热情如火，反对开放日本的农业市场。我甚至加入了在国会前举行的农民代表集会。

然而，日本农业在过去20年已开始走下坡路。农民的平均年龄上升了10岁，超过了66岁。

日本的农业正处在十字路口。为了使其能够生存下去，现在必须对其进行改革。我们将对已经实施数十年的农业政策采取重大改革行动。同样将面临改革的还有农业合作社，我们的农业合作社在过去60年的漫长岁月里一点儿变化也没有。日本的公司监管现在已完全与国际标准接轨，因为我们让它变得更加强大。在医学和能源等领域，僵硬的规则被打破，我则在其中起着先锋的作用。

为了逆转人口减少的趋势，我决心采取所有必要措施。我们正在改变一些旧习俗，以便让女性拥有更多权利，让她们能够更加积极地投身各行各业。简而言之，日本正处于大飞跃之中。

我亲爱的国会议员们，请来看看新的日本吧。我们已经恢复了改革精神和速度感。日本将不会逃避任何改革措施，我们只向前路看，并将推动结构改革。我们别无选择，也无疑虑。战后和平和日本的选择

我亲爱的同仁，没有美国的领导，战后世界的和平与安全是无法实现的。回首过去，我高兴地看到，日本在过去的每时每刻都作出了正确的抉择。

正如我开始引用我外祖父的话说的那样，那个抉择就是选择一条道路。也即，日本与美国结盟，作为西方世界一员前行的道路。最后，与美国和其它志同道合的民主国家一道，我们赢得了冷战的胜利。这是一条让日本成长和繁荣的道路。即便在今天，日本也别无选择。

联盟：在亚太地区的任务

我的亲爱的同事，我们支持美国的“再平衡”，以加强亚太地区的和平与安全。我将明确表示，我们将始终支持美国的这一努力。日本已经与澳大利亚和印度深化了战略关系。我们与东盟国家和韩国在许多领域加强了合作。

给美日同盟这个中心支柱增加这些伙伴将使我们的地区更加地稳定。

现在，日本将提供28亿美元援助，以帮助改善美国驻关岛的基地。关岛基地的战略重要性在未来将会变得更加突出。

就亚洲海域而言，请让我在这里强调我的三个原则： 首先，各国当根据国际法来提出要求。

第二，各国不应当使用武力或者强迫手段来推动它们的要求。第三，通过和平手段来解决任何争端。

我们必须让从太平洋至印度洋广泛的海域成为自由和自由之海，所有国家都遵守法治原则。

为此，我们必须强化美日联盟，这是我们的责任。现在，请让我告诉你们。

在日本，我们正在努力采取措施，强化我们的安保立法基础。

在这些立法措施就位的情况下，日本将更能对各项危机作出天衣无缝的反应。

强化后的立法基础应当使美军和日本自卫队的合作更加密切，美日联盟更加牢固，为地区和平提供可信威慑。

这项改革是全新的，是我们战后历史上力度很大的一项改革。我们将在今年夏天完成这项改革。

现在，我还有一些消息要与你们分享。

美国国务卿克里、美国国防部长卡特前天会见了日本外相岸田文雄、防务相中谷元，双方进行了磋商。

我们达成了新防务合作框架，一个更好地共同配置美日军事力量的框架。这个框架是与日本正在进行的立法努力相一致的。

这对于建设和平、一个更可靠的和平是必须的。这就是新防务合作指导方针。奥巴马总统和我昨天对这些指导方针的意义达成了完全一致的看法。女士们，先生们，我们达成了一个具有历史意义的协议。日本的新旗帜

在上世纪90年代初期，日本海上自卫队曾在波斯湾清除过水雷。

在过去十年，日本自卫队在印度洋支持了美国的行动，以遏制恐怖分子和武器的流动。与此同时，日本自卫队队员在柬埔寨、戈兰高地、伊拉克、海地和南苏丹参加了人道主义支持和维和行动。参与人数达到5万人。

在这些基础之上，我们决心为了世界和平与稳定承担更多责任。

为此目的，我们决心在今年夏天颁布所有必要的法案。我们将做到这一点。

我们必须确保，除了国家安全，人类安全也必须得到保证。这是我们坚定的信仰。我们要竭尽全力让所有的人获得教育、医疗支持，获得实现自力更生的机会。

武装冲突使女性成为最大的受害者。在我们的时代，我们必须实现让女性免遭人权侵犯的最终目标。

我们的军人取得了重大成就，我们的援助人员也是如此，他们持续不懈地进行着工作。他们的人数使我们获得了新的自我认同。

这就是我们现在高举行新旗帜的原因。这面新旗帜是“基于国际合作，为和平做出积极贡献”。

请让我重申，“基于国际合作，为和平做出积极贡献”将引导日本沿未来之路前进。我们面临的问题包括恐怖主义，传染病、自然灾难和气候变化。现在是美日同盟直面和共同应对这些新挑战的时候了。毕竟，我们结盟的持续时间已超过了美国全部历史的1/4。

这是一个牢固的联盟，由信任和友谊相联接，是一个深度合作的联盟。

没有必要为这个联盟制订任何新概念。这个联盟由自由世界最大和第二大的民主国家，美国和日本组成。

这个联盟永久珍视我们共同的价值观——法治、对人类尊严和自由的尊重。未来的希望

当我在上中学时，电台播出的一首歌曲曾打动我的心。这是一首由卡洛尔-金演唱的歌曲。

歌中唱道：“当你心情低落、饱受困扰时，闭上眼睛，想想我吧，我将在那里，照亮你最黑暗的夜晚。” 2016年3月11日，强震、海啸和核事故袭击了日本东北部。这是日本最黑暗的夜晚。

接着，我们便看到美军紧急赶赴灾区，开展了规模前所未有的救援行动 在美国各界，很多很多人向日本地震灾区的儿童伸出了援手。是的，我们有你们这样的朋友。

你们和地震受灾者一起流泪，你们给了我们一些非常，非常宝贵的东西。那就是希望，对未来的希望。

女士们，先生们，美国能给世界的最佳资产是希望，将是而且也必须一直是希望。尊敬的美国公民的代表，让我们将美日联盟称作希望联盟。

让我们两国，美国和日本联手，竭尽全力来使世界成为一个更好的，一个比过去好很多的居住场所。

希望的联盟，我们携手，将能使世界有所不同。非常感谢你们。

第五篇：宋美龄演讲

宋美龄1943年在美国会演讲稿

蒋夫人宋美龄女士以106高龄辞世，世人追忆她时，最推崇她于1943年2月18日应邀在美国国会发表的那场演说，夫人纯正的而又典雅的英文，仪态翩然、铿锵有力地在国会参众两院联席会上演说，风靡了全场，数度赢得如雷掌声，最后全体起立热情鼓掌。众议院的议员们凝神聆听宋美龄演讲。议员和旁听席上皆座无虚席。

（中、英文）对照全文：

Mr.President, Members of the Senate of the United States, ladies, and gentlemen, I am overwhelmed by the warmth and spontaneity of the welcome of the American people, of whom you are the representatives.I did not know that I was to speak to you today at the Senate except to say, “How do you do, I am so very glad to see you.” and to bring the greetings of my people to the people of America.However, just before coming here, the Vice President told me that he wouId li

ke to have me say a few words to you.议长先生，美国参议院各位议员，各位女士、先生，受到诸位所代表的美国人民热情与真诚的欢迎，令我感动莫名。我事先不知今天要在参议院发表演说，只以为要到此说声「大家好，很高兴见到各位」，并向贵国人民转达敝国百姓的问候之意。不过，在来到此地之前，贵国副总统告诉我，他希望我和各位说几句话。

I am not a very good extemporaneous speaker;in fact, I am no speaker at all；but I am not so very much discouraged, because a few days ago I was at Hyde Park, and went to the President’s library.Something I saw there encouraged me , and made me feel that perhaps you will not expect overmuch of me in speaking to you extemporaneously.What do you think I saw there I saw there many things, but the one thing which interested me most of all was that in a glass case there was the first draft of one of the President’s speeches, a second draft, and on and on up to the sixth draft.Yesterday I happened to the mention this fact to the President, and told him that I was extremely glad that he had to write so many drafts when he is such a well-known and acknowledgedly fine speaker.His reply to me was that sometimes he writes 12 drafts of a speech.So, my remarks here today, being extemporaneous, I am sure you will make allowances for me.我并不擅于即席演说，事实上根本称不上是演说家，但我不会因此怯场，因为前几天我在海德公园参观过总统图书馆，在那里看见的一些东西鼓励了我，让我感觉各位或许不会对我的即席演说要求太多。各位知道我在那里见到什么吗？我看到了许多，但最让我感兴趣的，莫过于一个放着总统先生（译按，即罗斯福总统）演说草稿的玻璃箱，里头从第一份草稿、第二份草稿，一直到第六份草稿。昨天，我碰巧向总统先生提及此事，我说我很高兴知道，以他如此知名又公认一流的演说家，还必须写这么多份草稿。他回答说，有时他一次演说得写12份草稿。因此，今天本人在此发表的即席演说，我确信各位一定会包容。

The traditional friendship between your country and mine has a history of 160 years.I feel--and I believe that I am not the only one who feels this way--that there are a great many similarities between your people and mine, and that these similarlties are the basis of our friendship.贵国和敝国之间有着160年悠久历史的情谊，我觉得贵国人民和敝国百姓有许许多多的相似点，而这些相似点正是两国情谊的基础，我也相信不是只有我有这样的感觉。

I should like to tell you a little story which will illustrate this belief.When General Doolittle and his men went to bomb Tokyo, on their return some of your boys had to bail out in the interior of China.One of them later told me that he had to bail out of his ship.and that when he landed on Chinese soil and saw the populace running toward him, he just waved his arm and shouted the only Chinese word he knew, ”Mei-kuo, Mei-kuo,”which means“ America.”Literally translated fr

om the Chinese it means ”Beautiful country.”

This boy said that our people laughed and almost hugged him, and greeted him like a long lost brother.He further told me that he thought that he had come home when he saw our people;and that was the first time he had ever been to China.(Applause.)

在此，我想说个小故事，来说明此一信念。杜立德将军和部下一起去轰炸东京，回程时有些美国子弟兵不得不在中国内陆跳伞。其中一人后来告诉我，他被迫从飞机跳伞，踏上中国的土地时，看到当地居民跑向他，他就挥着手，喊出他会说的唯一一句中国话：「美国，美国」，也就是［美利坚］的意思，（掌声）美国在中国话的意思是「美丽的国家」。

这个大男孩说，敝国人民听了都笑开来，拥抱他，像欢迎失散多年的兄弟一般。他还告诉我说，当他看到我们的人民，感觉他已经回到家：而那是他第一次来到中国。（掌声）

I came to your country as a little girl.I know your people.I have lived with them.I spent the formative years of my life amongst your people.I speak your language, not only the language of you hearts, but also your tongue.So coming here today I feel that I am also coming home.（Applause)

我来到贵国时是个小女孩，我熟悉贵国人民，我和他们一起生活过。我生命中成长的岁月是和贵国人民一起度过，我说你们的话，我想的和你们一样，说的也和你们一样。所以今天来到这里，我也感觉我好像回到家了。（掌声）

I believe, however, that it is not only I who am coming home, I feel that if the Chinese people could speak to you in your own tongue, or if you could understand our tongue, they would tell you that basically and fundamentally we are fighting for the same cause(great applause)；

that we have identity of ideals；that the “four freedoms,，which your President proclaimed to the world, resound throughout our vast land as the gong of freedom, the gong of freedom of the United Nations, and the death kn

ell of the aggressors.(Applause.)

不过，我相信不只是我回到家，我觉得，如果中国人民会用你们的语言与你们说话，或是你们能了解我们的语言，他们会告诉你们，根本而言，我们都在为相同的理念奋战（如雷掌声）；我们有一致的理想；亦即贵国总统向全世界揭示的「四个自由」，自由的钟声、联合国自由的钟声，和侵略者的丧钟响彻我国辽阔的土地。（掌声）

I assure you that our people are willing and eager to cooperate with you in the realization of these ideals, because we went to see to it that they do not echo as empty phrases, but become realities for ourselves, foe children , for our children’s children, and for all mankind.(Applause.)

谨向各位保证，敝国人民深愿亦渴望为实现这些理想和贵国合作，因为我们希望这些理想不会流于空言，而是成为我们、我们的子子孙孙、全人类的真况实境。（掌声）

How are we going to realize these ideals I think 1 shall tell you a little story which just came to my mind.As you know.China is a very old nation.We have a history of 5,000 years.When we were obliged to evacuate Hankow and go into the hinterland to carry on and continue our resistance against aggression, the Generalissimo and I passed one of our fronts, the he Changsha front.One day we went into the Heng-yang Mountains, where there are traces of a famous pavilion called“Rub-the-mirror”pavilion, which was built over 2,000 years ago.It will perhaps interest you to hear the story of that pavilion.我们要如何实现这些理想，我想，我可以告诉各位一个我刚想到的小故事。各位知道，中国是一个非常古老的国家。我们有五千年历史。我们被迫从汉口撤退，转入大后方继续抵抗侵略的时候，蒋委员长和我经过一处前线，就在长沙。有一天，我们上衡山，山上有一处有名的遗迹，叫［磨镜台］，是两千多年前的古迹。诸位或许有兴趣听听这古迹的故事。

Two thousand years ago near that spot was an old Buddhist temple.One of the young monks went there, and all day long he sat crosslegged, with his hands clasped before him in an attitude of prayer, and murmured ”Amita-Buddha!Amita-Buddha!Amita-Buddha!”He murmured and chanted day after day, because he hoped that he would acquire grace.两千年前，台址近旁有一座古老的佛寺。一名年轻和尚来此修行，他整天盘腿坐禅，双手合十，口中喃喃念着「阿弥陀佛！阿弥陀佛！阿弥陀佛！」他唱念佛号，日复一日，因

为他希望成佛。

The Father Prior of that temple took a piece of brick and rubbed it against a stone hour after hour, day after day, and week after week.The little acolyte, being very young, sometimes cast his eyes around to see what the old Father Prior was doing.The old Father Prior just kept on his work of rubbing the brick against the stone.So one day the young acolyte said to him.“Father Prior, what are you doing day after day rubbing this brick on the stone” The Father Prior replied,“I am trying to make a mirror out of this brick.”The young acolyte said, “But it is impossible to make a mirror out of a brick, Father Prior．”Yes” said the Father Prior, “and it is just as impossible for you yo acquire grace by doing nothing except murmur' ' Amita-Buddha' ' all day long, day in and day out.”(Applause.)

寺里的住持于是也跟着拿一块砖去磨一块石头，时时刻刻的磨，一天又一天的磨，一周又一周的磨。小和尚有时抬眼瞧瞧老和尚在做什么。住持只是一个劲儿拿砖磨石。终于有一天，小和尚对住持说，「大师，您每天拿这块砖磨石头，到底为什么呢」住持答道：「我要用这块砖做镜子。」小和尚说：「可砖块是做不成镜子的呀，大师。」「没错，」住持说，「就像你成天光念阿弥陀佛，是成不了佛的。」（掌声）

So, my friends, I feel that it is necessary for us not only to have ideals and to proclaim that we have them ,it is necessary that we act to implement them.And so to you, gentlemen of the Senate, and to you ladies and gentlemen in the galleries, I say that without the active help of all of us our leader cannot implement these ideals.It is up to you and to me to take to heart the lesson of ”

Rub-the-mirror“ pavilion.因此，朋友们，我觉得，我们不但必须有理想，不但要昭告我们有理想，我们还必须以行动来落实理想。（掌声）所以，我要对诸位参议员先生，以及旁听席上的女士、先生说，没有我们大家的积极协助，我们的领袖无法落实这些理想。诸位和我都必须谨记「磨镜

台」的教训。

I thank you.(Great applause, Senators and their guests arising.)

我谢谢大家。（全场掌声，议员与来宾起立。）

蒋夫人致辞：

议长先生，贵国的参议院议员，女士先生们，（感谢诸位的到来）。贵国人民自发的热情接待让我感到受宠无限，而在坐诸位是全美国人民的代表。我事先不知今天要在参议院发表演说，只以为要到此说声”大家好，很高兴见到各位“.受国人之拖，我将中国人民的问候带给贵国的人民。

不过，在来到此地之前，贵国副总统告诉我，他希望我和各位说几句话。

我不善于即兴演讲，确切地说，我根本不是个演讲者。但我并不沮丧，因为几天前，我在海德公园，有幸参观了总统先生的书库。我所看到的一个情景鼓舞了我，让我做了这样的心里准备：也许在座各位对我的演讲并不报过多的期望。你猜我在那里读到什么了呢？我读到了许多东西。但是，最吸引我的是在总统先生的玻璃柜中，放了一张总统先生的演说词的初稿，在上面，我又见到了第二初稿，直到第六张。昨天，我无意中向总统先生提起这件事，并告诉他，我松了一口气，因为作为一个世界知名的演说家，尚且要准备这么多的手稿。他回答我说，一些时候，他甚至准备过12张演讲初稿。因此，希望各位对我的即席演说，在评价前能给予宽容的心态。

贵国与我国的传统友谊已有160多年的历史。我认为，我也相信，诸位和我一样，认识到美中两国人民有着极大的相同之处，而正是这些相似之处奠定了我们友谊的基础。

我要给各位讲一个小故事，将说明这一信念。当General Doolittle 和他的部下前往东京作战时，在他们返航的途中，一些战士逃往到我国的土地上避难。后来，其中的一个人告诉我，在向本国船只求就无效后，他来到了我国的土地上。我国人民见到了他，跑了过来。他挥舞着手臂，口里喊着他唯一知晓的两个中国汉字“美国，美国”，指的就是“America”（掌声）。在我国，这两个字的字面意思是“美丽的地方”。这个孩子说，我的国民听到他那有趣的发音后大笑了起来，并拥抱着欢迎他，好似找到了失去已久的兄弟。后来，他又告诉我，见到了我国热情的人民，他好似回到了家一样安心和温暖。但是，这却是他第一次踏上中国的土地。（掌声）

当我还是小女孩时，我来到这里。我和你们生活在一起。我讲着你们的语言，不仅仅是诸位心灵的语言，还有你们的口音。我的成长期在这里渡过，我了解你们的一切。所以今天来到这里，我也像是是回到了家里。（掌声）

但我相信，这不仅是我一个人回家，我觉得如果中国人民会说你们的母语，或者诸位能够通晓我们的语言，他们会告诉你，我们两国人民是为了共同的信念而斗争。（热烈的掌声）我们恒久的信念就是“四大自由”，这也是贵国总统向世界人民的声明，这像锣鸣一样在我们那广阔的土地与向往自由天空回响，自由之神正拥抱美国，而侵略者听到的将是死亡的伤钟[掌声。]

怎样做才能实现我们的理想，我先给诸位讲一个我刚刚想到的小故事。众所周知，中国是一个非常悠久的古国。我们有着五千年的历史文化。当我们被迫从汉口撤退向进军内陆继续抵抗侵略者时，大元帅和我正在长沙战线。一天，我们上衡阳山，在那里我们见到了一个有名的历史遗迹叫“磨镜台”，是两千年前的遗迹。各位可能会对这个故事感兴趣。

两千年前，在那个遗迹附近有个古老的佛寺。一个小和尚来此修行，他整天盘膝而坐，双手合十，默默念着“阿弥陀佛，阿弥陀佛，阿弥陀佛，”他默默念着唱着，日复一日。因为，他渴望成佛。

寺院的住持也很古怪,他整天拿着一块砖去磨一块石头,日复一日,年复一年地做这件事。小和尚对此很疑惑,他有时候台头看看住持在干什么。而住持只是继续做着这件事。一天,小和尚对问他”住持,你成天磨着石头,在干什么呢?“住持回答说”我想把这块砖磨成镜子“小和尚又说”但是砖是无论如何也磨不成镜子的“。”是这么回事"老住持继续说，“就像你只是念佛，不做些实事，也很难成佛”（掌声）

因此，在座的朋友们，我们不仅要有理想，还要把我们的理想推广开来，更重要的是行动，用实际行动来实现我们共同的理想。（掌声）因此，在座的参议员及旁听席的女士，我要对诸位说没有我们大家的实际帮助，我们的首领无法实现这些理想。在座的朋友和我必须铭记“磨镜台的故事”。(掌声)出席者站了起来
