告别有情天

不像我们的美国同盟
Unlike our American colleague
我们欧洲人深知战争的恐怖
we in Europe know the horrors of war.
不论我们是法国人 英国人 意大利人或是德国人
And whether we are French or English or Italian or German
我们共同的愿望都是不想再次经历战争的伤痛
our one desire is to never have to experience them again.
确实是这样
Indeed.
让我印象深刻 或者说是被感动的是
Impressed, or I may say touched
大家的表现出的善意和友谊
by the words of goodwill and friendship I have heard
我向大家承诺 我会尽我最大的努力
I promise you that I shall do my utmost
来转变我国对德国的政策
to change the policy of my country
虽然她曾是一个战败国
towards that nation which was once our foe
但是现在 我敢于说
but is now, I may venture to say
她是我们的朋友
our friend.
女士们先生们
Ladies and gentlemen
美国跟各位一样也不想要战争
the United States doesn’t want war any more than you do.
但是另一方面 我们也不想用任何的代价来换取和平
On the other hand, neither do we want peace at any price
因为有些所谓的代价
because some prices, you may find
无比巨大
are too outrageously high to pay.
但是先不说这些 不久就知道了
But let’s not get into that now. We may have to soon enough.
现在 让我们举起酒杯敬达林顿公爵
For the moment, let us raise our glasses to Lord Darlington
感谢他的热情好客
in gratitude for his magnificent hospitality.
达林顿公爵
Lord Darlington
达林顿公爵是一个老派的英国绅士
Lord Darlington is a classic English gentleman of the old school.
体面 受人尊敬 非常好心
Decent and honorable and well-meaning.
在座各位也都是体面 受尊敬 好心的绅士
So are all of you. All decent, honorable and well-meaning gentlemen.
非常荣幸能在这里遇到各位
It’s a pleasure and a privilege for me to visit with you here.
但是
But
很抱歉这么说
now, excuse me, I have to say this
你们都是业余的
you are, all of you, amateurs.
国际政♥治♥事务不该由你们这样的绅士来管理
And international affairs should never be run by gentlemen amateurs.
你们一点也不知道
Do you have any idea of what sort of a place
这个世界正在变成什么样
the world is becoming all around you?
用你们高尚的作派来管理的世界已经不复存在了
The days when you could act out of noble instincts are over.
欧洲现在是权利政♥治♥的舞台 是现实的政♥治♥
Europe has become the arena of Realpolitik, the politics of reality.
不管你喜不喜欢 是真正的政♥治♥
If you like, real politics.
你们要讨论的不是像理想化的政♥治♥
What you need is not gentlemen politicians,
而是现实世界中的政♥治♥
but real ones.
你们需要专家来出谋划策
You need professionals to run your affairs,
否则你们只会引致灾难
or you’re headed for disaster.
绅士们 请举杯
So I propose a toast, gentlemen
向我们的专家致敬
to the professionals.
我不希望大家在相聚的最后一晚
Well, I’ve no wish to enter into a quarrel
陷入争论之中
on our last evening together.
但是让我说一句 你所描述的业余政♥治♥家
But let me say this. What you describe as amateurism
是我们在场的所有人都引以为傲的
is what I think most of us here still prefer to call honour.
肯顿小姐想对你说句话 关于您的父亲
Miss Kenton would like to see you concerning your father.
我猜您的专业 更意味着贪婪和权利
I suggest that your professionalism means greed and power
而不是这个世界所需要的正义和公平
rather than to see justice and goodness prevail in the world.
我毫不保留地告诉各位
I’ve never concealed from myself that what we were asking of Germany
这是我们国家的传统 谢谢
is a complete break from the tradition of this country. Thank you.

这样的话 请允许我合上他的双眼
In that case, will you permit me to close his eyes?
