林肯(Abraham Lincoln)著名的葛底斯堡演说【中英对照版】

Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.But, in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract.The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us：that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion；that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain；that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom；and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.八十七年前，我们的先辈们在这个大陆上给我们带来了一个新的共和国，她受孕于自由的理念，并献身于一切人生来平等的理想。

葛底斯堡演说
亚拉伯罕·林肯
87年前，我们的祖辈基于自由的构想和致力于实现人人平等的主张，在这个大陆上建立了一个新国家。

如今，我们投身于一场伟大的内战，检验我们这个国家，或者其他任何拥有这种构想和主张的国家，是否能够永久存在。

我们在这个伟大的战场上相逢。

我们将这块战场上的一小部分土地奉献给那些为了民族生存而献出他们生命的人们，以作为他们最后的安息之地。

我们这样做是天经地义的。

但是，从更大的意义上来说，我们无法奉献，无法献身，无法将这块土地奉为圣地。

那些曾经在这块土地上奋勇作战的英雄们，无论在世与否，他们对这片土地的奉献远远超过我们所能增加或减少的微不足道的能力。

世人不会太在意，也不会永远记着我们在这里所说的话。

但是，那些曾经在这片土地上奋勇作战的英雄们将被世人永远铭记。

我们这些尚存于世的人们更应该在这片土地上，为那些英雄们尚未完成的事业而倾尽一生。

那些英雄们曾在此浴血奋战。

我们在这里更应该献身于那些英雄们遗留下来的伟大事业；由于他们的光荣牺牲，我们应该更加坚定地舍生于他们最后拼尽全力所献身的事业——我们在此表明最大的决心，那些牺牲的英雄们绝不会白白浪费自己的生命。

在上帝的保佑之下，这个国家将获得自由的新生。

一个“民有、民治、民享”的政府将在这个地球上永存。

我们正从事一场伟大的内战，以考验这个国家，或者任何一个孕育于自由和奉行上述原则的国家是否能够长久存在下去。

我们在这场战争中的一个伟大战场上集会。

烈士们为使这个国家能够生存下去而献出了自己的生命，我们来到这里，是要把这个战场的一部分奉献给他们作为最后安息之所。

我们这样做是完全应该而且非常恰当的。

但是，从更广泛的意义上说，这块土地我们不能够奉献，不能够圣化，不能够神化。

那些曾在这里战斗过的勇士们，活着的和去世的，已经把这块土地圣化了，这远不是我们微薄的力量所能增减的。

我们今天在这里所说的话，全世界不大会注意，也不会长久地记住，但勇士们在这里所做过的事，全世界却永远不会忘记。

毋宁说，倒是我们这些还活着的人，应该在这里把自己奉献于勇士们已经如此崇高地向前推进但尚未完成的事业。

倒是我们应该在这里把自已奉献于仍然留在我们面前的伟大任务——我们要从这些光荣的死者身上吸取更多的献身精神，来完成他们已经完全彻底为之献身的事业；我们要在这里下定最大的决心，不让这些死者白白牺牲；我们要使国家在上帝福佑下自由的新生，要使这个民有、民治、民享的政府永世长存。

“民有、民治、民享”，这是亚伯拉罕．林肯在盖茨堡演说时，描绘一个理想的政府。

林肯：葛底斯堡演讲（中英文）主讲：亚伯拉罕·林肯时间：1863年11月19日地点：美国，宾夕法尼亚，葛底斯堡八十七年以前，我们的祖先在这大陆上建立了一个国家，它孕育于自由，并且献身给一种理念，即所有人都是生来平等的。

当前，我们正在从事一次伟大的内战，我们在考验，究竟这个国家，或任何一个有这种主张和这种信仰的国家，是否能长久存在。

我们在那次战争的一个伟大的战场上集会。

我们来到这里，奉献那个战场上的一部分土地，作为在此地为那个国家的生存而牺牲了自己生命的人的永久眠息之所。

我们这样做，是十分合情合理的。

可是，就更深一层意义而言，我们是无从奉献这片土地的--无从使它成为圣地--也不能把它变为人们景仰之所。

那些在这里战斗的勇士，活着的和死去的，已使这块土地神圣化了，远非我们的菲薄能力所能左右。

世人会不大注意，更不会长久记得我们在此地所说的话，然而他们将永远忘不了这些人在这里所做的事。

相反，我们活着的人应该献身于那些曾在此作战的人们所英勇推动而尚未完成的工作。

我们应该在此献身于我们面前所留存的伟大工作--由于他们的光荣牺牲，我们要更坚定地致力于他们曾作最后全部贡献的那个事业--我们在此立志宣誓(据了解基督徒是不被允许起誓的)，不能让他们白白死去--要使这个国家在上帝的庇佑之下，得到新生的自由--要使那民有、民治、民享的政府不致从地球上消失。

林肯葛底斯堡演说中英文对照翻译林肯的讲话是极简短、极朴素的。

这往往使那些滔滔不绝的讲演家大瞧不起。

葛底斯堡战役后，决定为死难烈士举行盛大葬礼。

掩葬委员会发给总统一张普通的请帖，他们以为他是不会来的，但林肯答应了。

既然总统来，那一定要讲演的，但他们已经请了著名演说家艾佛瑞特来做这件事，因此，他们又给林肯写了信，说在艾佛瑞特演说完毕之后，他们希望他“随便讲几句适当的话”。

这是一个侮辱，但林肯平静地接受了。

两星期内，他在穿衣、刮脸、吃点心时也想着怎样演说。

演说稿改了两三次，他仍不满意。

到了葬礼的前一天晚上，还在做最后的修改，然后半夜找到他的同僚高声朗诵。

走进会场时，他骑在马上仍把头低到胸前默想着演说辞。

那位艾佛瑞特讲演了两个多小时，将近结束时，林肯不安地掏出旧式眼镜，又一次看他的讲稿。

他的演说开始了，一位记者支上三角架准备拍摄照片，等一切就绪的时候，林肯已走下讲台。

这段时间只有两分钟，而掌声却持续了10分钟。

后人给以极高评价的那份演说辞，在今天译成中文，也不过400字。

Commented by 鱼化石：林肯的这篇演说是演说史上著名的篇章，其思想的深刻，行文的严谨，语言的冼练，确实是不愧彪炳青史的大手笔。

尤其是其中的第二段，建议加以仔细分析，其语义的承转，结构的安排，甚至包括其句式的使用，无一不是极尽推敲之作。

我们聚集在这场战争中一个伟大战场上，将这个战场上的一块土地奉献给那些在此地为了这个国家的生存而牺牲了自己生命的人，作为他们的最终安息之所。

经典演讲：《葛底斯堡演讲》（中英）说到英文演讲，不能不提《葛底斯堡演讲》，林肯总统的这篇演讲，短短数百字之中，佳句频出，赞美内战中牺牲的战士，感情真挚而诚恳，也使得“民有、民治、民享“的理念深入人心。

Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can longendure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war.当前，我们正在从事一次伟大的内战，我们在考验，究竟这个国家，或任何一个有这种主张和这种信仰的国家，是否能长久存在。
