And to all those watching tonight from beyond our shores, from parliaments and palaces to those who are huddled around radios in the forgotten corners of the world—our stories are singular, but our destiny is shared, and a new dawn of American leadership is at hand. To those—to those who would tear the world down—we will defeat you. To those who seek peace and security—we support you. And to all those who have wondered if America's beacon still burns as bright—tonight we proved once more that the true strength of our nation comes not from the might of our arms or the scale of our wealth, but from the enduring power of our ideals: democracy, liberty, opportunity, and unyielding hope.
对于那些彻夜关注美国大选的海外人士，从国会到皇宫，到在这个世界上被遗忘的角落里挤在收音机旁的人们，我想说，我们的情况虽然各有不同，但我们最终的前途和命运是相同的，新的美国领袖诞生了。那些想要颠覆这个世界的人们，我们必将击败你们。那些寻求和平和安全的人们，我们支持你们。那些所有怀疑美国这个灯塔是否还能继续照亮世界的人们，今天晚上我们再次证明，我们国家真正的力量并非来自我们武器的威力或财富的多少，而是来自我们思想的持久力量：民主、自由、机会和永不磨灭的希望。
That's the true genius of America—that America can change. Our union can be perfected. What we have already achieved gives us hope for what we can and must achieve tomorrow.
因为这才是美国真正的天赋所在——美国能够变革。我们的联邦会日趋完美。我们已经取得的成就给了我们希望，我们将来一定能够而且必须取得更大的成就。
