4月10日,中國國家主席習近平應邀出席博鰲亞洲論壇2018年年會開幕式并發(fā)表重要主旨演講。
在這次演講中,習主席引用了不少古語,引得陣陣掌聲。
下面,雙語君(微信ID:Chinadaily_Mobile)就給小可愛們送上這些古語的英文翻譯!掏出小本本一起來學習吧!
“天道酬勤,春華秋實”
天道酬勤,春華秋實。中國人民堅持聚精會神搞建設、堅持改革開放不動搖,持之以恒,鍥而不舍,推動中國發(fā)生了翻天覆地的變化。
Heaven rewards those who work hard, and flowers in spring come to fruition in autumn. The focused endeavor in national development and unwavering commitment to reform and opening-up of the Chinese people have brought enormous changes to the country.
“天道酬勤”出自《書·大誥》
“天閟毖我成功,天亦惟用勤毖我民”
“春華秋實”
“華”同“花”
春天開花,秋天結實
“天行有?!?,“應之以治則吉”
“天行有常”,“應之以治則吉”。中國進行改革開放,順應了中國人民要發(fā)展、要創(chuàng)新、要美好生活的歷史要求,契合了世界各國人民要發(fā)展、要合作、要和平生活的時代潮流。
An ancient Chinese classic teaches that heaven has its own law and those who embrace it will prosper. China's reform and opening-up meets its people's aspiration for development, innovation and a better life. It also meets the global trend toward development, cooperation and peace.
“天行有?!?,“應之以治則吉”出自《荀子·天論》
“天行有常,不為堯存,不為桀亡;
應之以治則吉,應之以亂則兇?!?/p>
“不畏浮云遮望眼”
我們要不畏浮云遮望眼,善于撥云見日,把握歷史規(guī)律,認清世界大勢。
We must not let our vision be blocked by floating clouds. Instead, we must dispel the clouds to see the sun, as we say in Chinese, so as to have a keen grasp of the law of history and the trend of the world.
“不畏浮云遮望眼,自緣身在最高層”出自王安石《登飛來峰》
飛來山上千尋塔,聞說雞鳴見日升。
不畏浮云遮望眼,自緣身在最高層。
“茍利于民,不必法古;
茍周于事,不必循俗”
中國的先人們早在2500多年前就認識到:“茍利于民,不必法古;茍周于事,不必循俗”。
A Chinese philosopher recognized as early as over 2,500 years ago that one doesn't have to follow a beaten path if he wishes to benefit the people and one doesn't have to observe old conventions if he wishes to get things done.
“茍利于民,不必法古;茍周于事,不必循俗”出自《淮南子·汜論訓》
如果對民眾有利,就不必非要效法古制;如果適合實際情況,就不必一定要遵循舊俗。
“積土而為山,積水而為?!?/span>
“積土而為山,積水而為海?!毙腋:兔篮梦磥聿粫约撼霈F(xiàn),成功屬于勇毅而篤行的人。
As a Chinese saying goes, "A mountain is formed by accumulation of earth and an ocean is formed by accumulation of water." Happiness and a bright future will not appear automatically; success only favors those with courage and perseverance.
“積土而為山,積水而為?!背鲎浴盾髯印と逍А?/p>
泥土堆積起來能成為高山,細流匯積起來能形成大海
看了上面古語的翻譯,是不是覺得意猶未盡?
