MCCAIN: Thank you. Thank you, my friends. Thank you for coming here on this beautiful Arizona evening.

感谢各位。非常感谢你们，我的朋友们。感谢你们在这个美好的夜晚，来到这里。

My friends, we have -- we have come to the end of a long journey. The American people have spoken, and they have spoken clearly.

我的朋友们，我们已经，已经走完了这次漫长的旅程。美国人民已经说出了他们的决定，说得非常清楚。

A little while ago, I had the honor of calling Senator Barack Obama to congratulate him.

刚才，我非常荣幸地给奥巴马参议员打电话，向他表示祝贺。

Please. To congratulate him on being elected the next president of the country that we both love.

祝贺他当选为这个国家的下一任总统，这个我们两个都无比热爱的国家的下一任总统。

In a contest as long and difficult as this campaign has been, his success alone commands my respect for his ability and perseverance. But that he managed to do so by inspiring the hopes of so many millions of Americans who had once wrongly believed that they had little at stake or little influence in the election of an American president is something I deeply admire and commend him for achieving.

This is an historic election, and I recognize the special significance it has for African-Americans and for the special pride that must be theirs tonight.

在这场持久而且艰难的竞选活动中，他的成功赢得了我对他能力和毅力的尊敬。但是更让我赞赏的是，他激起了数以亿计的美国人民的希望。他们原本错误地以为他们自己在选举中所发挥的作用有限。这是一次历史性的选举，我承认它对非洲裔美国人的重要性，今晚的荣耀必定属于他们。

I've always believed that America offers opportunities to all who have the instry and will to seize it. Senator Obama believes that, too.

But we both recognize that, though we have come a long way from the old injustices that once stained our nation's reputation and denied some Americans the full blessings of American citizenship, the memory of them still had the power to wound.

我一直相信，美国为所有勤奋并愿意抓住机会的人提供了机会。奥巴马参议员也相信这一点。但我们都承认，尽管我们已经远离了以前的不公正，但他们的记忆仍能感受到所受到的伤害。这些不公正曾玷污了这个国家的名誉，剥夺了一些美国人应该作为美国公民应该享有的祝福。

A century ago, President Theodore Roosevelt's invitation of Booker T. Washington to dine....... at the White House was taken as an outrage in many quarters.

MCCAIN: America today is a world away from the cruel and frightful bigotry of that time. There is no better evidence of this than the election of an African-American to the presidency of the United States.

Let there be no reason now...

Let there be no reason now for any American to fail to cherish their citizenship in this, the greatest nation on Earth. (APPLAUSE)

一个世纪以前，西奥多-罗斯福总统邀请布克-T-华盛顿在白宫共同进餐，这曾引起了许多人的愤怒。但今天的美国已经远离了那个时代的残忍以及可怕的顽固。再也没有比一位非洲裔美国人当选美国总统更能证明这一点了。我们要让所有的美国人都没有理由不珍视他们的国民身份，珍视这个地球上最伟大国家的国民身份。
