Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the world,
就算現在正有全世界百萬人聽著我的言語，
millions of despairing men, women, and little children, victims of a system that makes men torture and imprison innocent people.

The hate of men will pass, and dictators die,
仇恨將逝，獨裁者也會死去，
and the power they took from the people will return to the people.

And so long as men die, liberty will never perish.
而只要人仍存在，自由就不會消逝。

Soldiers! don’t give yourselves to brutes, men who despise you, enslave you, who regiment your lives, tell you what to do, what to think and what to feel! Who drill you, diet you, treat you like cattle, use you as cannon fodder.
士兵們！不要聽命於殘暴之人，那些鄙視你、奴役你的人，那些控制你，控制你的所為、所思、所想！那些人勞役你、剝削你、把你當畜生利用、當砲灰利用。

Don’t give yourselves to these unnatural men, machine men with machine minds and machine hearts! You are not machines! You are not cattle! You are men! You have the love of humanity in your hearts! You don’t hate! Only the unloved hate, the unloved and the unnatural! Soldiers! Don’t fight for slavery! Fight for liberty!
不要把自己獻給那些違背自然的人，那些有著機械意識、機械心的機械人！你不是機器！你不是畜生！你是人！你心中有著人心的愛！你不會恨！只有那些不被愛的人會恨，那些不被愛的，不自然的人！士兵們！不要為奴役者而戰！要為自由而戰！

In the 17th Chapter of St Luke it is written: “the Kingdom of God is within man”, not one man nor a group of men, but in all men! In you! You, the people have the power, the power to create machines. The power to create happiness! You, the people, have the power to make this life free and beautiful, to make this life a wonderful adventure.
在路克福音第十七節寫道：「神之國就在你們心中。」不是在一個人也不是某一群人，而是所有人心中！在你心中！你們有力量，能創作機器，創造喜悅！你們有力量，能讓生活自在、美麗，讓生活成為一場精彩的冒險。

Then, in the name of democracy, let us use that power, let us all unite. Let us fight for a new world, a decent world that will give men a chance to work, that will give youth a future and old age a security. By the promise of these things, brutes have risen to power. But they lie! They do not fulfil that promise. They never will!
現在，以民主為名，讓我們用這股力量，讓我們團結。讓我們為一個新世界而奮鬥，一個會給你工作機會，會給你一個未來，給你老年的保障的像樣的世界。以這些承諾，暴君們提高了自己的權力。但他們說謊！他們不履行承諾。他們永遠不會！

Dictators free themselves but they enslave the people! Now let us fight to fulfil that promise! Let us fight to free the world! to do away with national barriers, to do away with greed, with hate and intolerance. Let us fight for a world of reason, a world where science and progress will lead to all men’s happiness.
獨裁者們解放自己，奴役人民！現在，讓我們為履行承諾而奮鬥！讓我們為解放世界而奮鬥！打破國界的壁壘，打破貪婪、仇恨與偏見。讓我們為一個理想的世界奮鬥，一個科學和進步會帶給全人類幸福。
Soldiers! in the name of democracy, let us all unite!
士兵們！以民主之名，讓我們團結！
