   We were like this on the lawn at Georgetown just across the town


  我们就像这样坐在城那边乔治敦的草地上
  It started out to be a clear day
  一开始还天朗气清
  Then all of a sudden, this huge storm cloud came over
  突然之间暴风云袭来
  And the lightening began to dance in the sky
  天空中开始电闪雷鸣
  And a Howard graduate, the mayor of Wasington D.C., Walter Washington stood up at the podium as I am
  一位霍华德大学毕业生华盛顿特区市长沃特尔·华盛顿就像我一样站在讲台前
  He looked to the sky
  他仰望天空
  He looked to the shivering students and he said,
  又看看打颤的学生们说道
  Congratulations
  祝贺你们
  If we don't get out of here, we are all gonna drown
  如果我们不离开这儿 我们都得被淹死
  If you want a copy of my speech, you write me, and I'll send you one
  如果你想要一份我的演讲稿 写信给我 我给你发一份
  Good luck
  祝你们好运
  And off we went
  然后我们就走了
  Now what did I learn from that?
  我从这件事里学到了什么
  The most successful commencement speeches are brief and highly relevant
  最成功的毕业致辞既简练又有高度的现实相关性
  So wherever whoever you are Mr. Mayor, thank you for the memory
  所以不管你现在在哪儿市长先生感谢你留下的回忆
  When you leave here, it is important for you to remember that you have been empowered to do something most people who ever lived could not do
  当你们离开这里的时候千万不要忘了你们已经被赋予了做一些大多数人一辈子都无法做到的事情的能力
  Even with the employment situation and the economic challenges, virtually all of you have the power to choose what you will do to earn a living
  即便在现在的就业形势和经济挑战之下你们几乎所有人都有能力选择你们谋生的方式
  It may sound selfevident, but most people who have ever lived including hundreds of millions, even billions of people on that face of the earth today never had that choice
  这看似不言自明 但是大多数生活在地球上的人包括现在的数百万甚至数十亿的人都未能做出这种选择
