I say to you today, my friends, that in spite of the difficulties and frustrations of the moment I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream. I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: we hold these truths to be self-evident; that all men are created equal.



I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slaveowners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood. I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississipi, a desert state sweltering with the heat of injustice and oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice. I have a dream that my my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.



I have a dream today. I have a dream that one day the state of Alabama whose governor’s lips are presently dripping with the words of interposition and nullification, will be transformed into a situation where little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls and walk together as sister and brothers.I have a dream today. I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plains,and the crooked places will be made straight ,and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed ,and all flesh shall see it together.



This is our hope. This is the faith with which I return to the south. With this faith we will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope. With this faith we will be able to transform the jangling discords of our nation into a beautiful symphony of brotherhood. With this faith we will be able to work together, to pray together, to struggle together, to go to jail together, to stand up for freedom together, knowing that will be free one day.



这是Martin Luther King著名的I Have a Dream演讲，第一次看的时候，既看不懂语言也看不懂内容，现在好像看懂了，可似乎看懂了也没有了什么意义。我也有梦想，有很多梦想，然而假如用单数来表达的话，我想我最大的梦想就是，就像最近经常对朋友说的那样，给我一年的时间，让我只是吃饭睡觉看夕阳。我有一个梦想，吃饭睡觉看夕阳。我有一个梦想，用一年的时间吃饭睡觉看夕阳，然后我再来考虑其它的梦想。
