My son starts school today. It's going to be strange and new to him for a while.
我的儿子今天开始上学了。今后的一段时间里，对他而言一切都将是陌生而崭新的。
And I wish you would sort of treat him gently. You see, up to now, he's been king of the
roost.
我希望你尽量对他温和一些。你看，到现在为止，他在家里还以国王自居。
He's been boss of the backyard. I have always been around to repair his wounds, and to soothe his feelings.
而且他还自认是后院的首领。我一直忙着治疗他的创伤，安抚他的情感。
But now-things are going to be different.
但是现在，事情将会发生变化。
This morning, he's going to walk down the front steps, wave his hand and start on his
great adventure that will probably include wars and tragedy and sorrow.
今天早上，他将会走下前门的台阶，挥手告别然后开始他那伟大的探险之旅，这里面将会上演战争、悲剧还有哀伤。
To live his life in the world he has to live in will require faith and love and courage.
要立足于世界，他需要有信念，爱和勇气。
So, World, I wish you would sort of take him by his young hand and teach him the things he will have to know. Teach him-but gently, if you can.
那么，世界啊，我多么希望你可以牵着他的小手教给他必须知道的那些事情。教他，但是要很温和地，如果可以的话。
Teach him that for every scoundrel there is a hero; that for every crooked politician there is a dedicated leader; that for every enemy there is a friend.
教会他有一个坏蛋就会有一个英雄；告诉他有一个龌龊的政客就会有一个献身的领袖；告诉他有一个敌人就会有一个朋友。
Teach him the wonders of books.
教会他发现书里面的奇妙之处。
Give him quiet time to ponder the eternal mystery of birds in the sky, bees in the sun,
and flowers on the green hill.
给他时间安静地思索那些永恒的秘密，关于天上的飞鸟，关于阳光里的蜜蜂，还有青葱山丘上的花朵。
Teach him it is far more honorable to fail than to cheat.
教会他，失败并不可怕，比起欺骗要光明正大得多。
Teach him to have faith in his own ideas, even if everyone else tells him they are wrong.
教会他，要坚信自己的想法，尽管每个人都说他那些想法是错的。
Teach him to sell his brawn and brains to the highest bidder, but never to put a price on his heart and soul.
教会他要把自己的体力和智力提供给最高的出价者，但是永远不要给他的心灵标价。
Teach him to close his ears to a howling mob... and to stand and fight if he thinks he's
right.
教会他对暴徒的咆哮充耳不闻……但是当他坚信自己是正确的时候就要起来战斗。
Teach him gently, World, but don't coddle him, because only the test of fire makes fine
steel.
温和地教他，世界，但是不要溺爱他，因为百炼才能成刚。
This is a big order, World, but see what you can do. He's such a nice little fellow.
这会是个很高很大很难的要求，但世界呀，请你尽力吧，因为他实在是个好乖的孩子。
可怜天下父母心,让我们先勇敢起来,相信自己的孩子也相信这个社会!放手,让他们去成长中慢慢体会生活吧!
虽然心中有隐隐不忍……
