Independence day

Independence day 独立日 Good morning. Good morning. In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others from around the world. And you will be launching the largest aerial battle in the history of mankind. Mankind that word should have new meaning for all of us today. We can’t be consumed by our petty differences anymore. We will be united in our common interests. Perhaps its fate that today is the forth of July. And you will once again be fighting for our freedom. Not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution, but from annihilation. We’re fighting for our right to live, to exist, and should we win the day, the Forth of July will no long be known as an American holiday, but as the day when the world declared in one voice, “We will not go quietly into the night. We will not vanish without fight. We’re going to live on. We’re going to survive.” Today, we celebrate our Independence Day! 【参考译文】 早上好!还有不到一个小时的时间，这里的战机就将起飞并与来自世界的军机联合起来， 发动人类史上规模最大的空战。人类---这个词从今天开始，对于我们所有人而言有了它新的 意义。我么将不会再因我们那些渺小的差异而起干戈。我们将为我们共同的利益而团结起来。 七月四日，也许这就是宿命，你们将再一次为了我们的自由而战。而这一回，我们面对的不是 暴政，压迫，或迫害，而是攸关整个人类的生死存亡。我们将为我们生存延续的权利而战。如 果今天我们能够凯旋，那七月四日将不再只被认为是美国的节日，而将成为全人类以一个共同 声音来宣誓的伟大一天，他们将喊道：“我们不愿坐以待毙！我们不能不战而亡!我们要活下去！ 我们会活下去！” 今天，我们庆祝的是全人类的独立日！
