如题所述
Assalamu alaikum. As we mark the end of Ramadan, the most holy month of fasting and prayer for Muslims around the world, I would like to wish all Muslims a peaceful and joyous Eid al-Fitr.
大家好。在世界各地穆斯林最神圣的守斋和祈祷之月——莱麦丹结束之际，我谨祝愿所有的穆斯林开斋节吉祥、快乐。
I had the honor of hosting an iftar at the State Department during Ramadan, and last week, while I was in Pakistan, I had the opportunity to join an iftar at a women’s university in Islamabad.
我很荣幸曾在莱麦丹期间在国务院主持过一次开斋晚宴。上个星期当我访问巴基斯坦时，我有机会在伊斯兰堡的一所女子大学参加了一次开斋晚宴。
As I have always found over many years of visiting and working with Muslim communities around the world, I left each one of these experiences with a renewed belief that our shared values are the best tools for confronting our many challenges. I am confident that those challenges are no match for the strength of the human spirit, our capacity for compassion, for our commitment to charity, all of which are emphasized and celebrated during this blessed time.
多年以来，我访问过世界各地的穆斯林社区并与他们一起合作。这些经历使我一次又一次体会到，我们的共同价值观是应对众多挑战的最好工具。我坚信，人们在祈福之时强调和弘扬的人类精神力量、我们关爱的能力、我们对仁慈的承诺完全能够战胜这些挑战。
Ramadan reminds us that practicing our diverse faiths – whether yours or mine or someoneelse’s – is not just about our personal relationship with God. It also must be about ourrelationships with each other.
莱麦丹让我们记住，我们信奉各种不同的信仰——不管是你们的，还是我的，或者其他人的——不仅仅关系到我们各自与神明的关系，而且必须关系到我们彼此之间的关系。
In times of change and uncertainty around the world, the celebration of these common valuesunites us in our humanity, and it reminds us of the value of cooperation and tolerance. Understanding, if we have the courage to summon it, is a powerful key that can unlock somany solutions.
在全世界充满变化和不确定的时代，弘扬这些共同的价值观使我们在人性的精神下团结在一起，并提醒我们合作与宽容的重要性。理解，如果我们有勇气呼唤理解，就能成为一把开启众多解决方案的强有力的钥匙。
On behalf of the State Department, I wish you and all Muslims around the world Eid Mubarak.
我谨代表国务院祝各位和全世界穆斯林开斋节吉祥。
